The integration of these approaches offers the best opportunity to
address the complex nature of neuroimmune dysfunction and
support recovery [168].
Clinical Integration of Array 7X with Other Testing
For a comprehensive assessment of neuroimmune health, Array 7X
can be integrated with other functional testing modalities:
Complementary Cyrex Arrays
Several other Cyrex panels provide complementary information
[169]:
● Array 2: Intestinal Antigenic Permeability Screen assesses gut
barrier function, which often precedes or accompanies
neuroinflammation [170]
● Array 20: Blood-Brain Barrier Permeability evaluates the
integrity of the blood-brain barrier, which is crucial for
neurological protection [171]
● Array 5: Multiple Autoimmune Reactivity Screen helps identify
broader autoimmune tendencies that may contribute to
neurological autoimmunity [172]
● Array 10: Multiple Food Immune Reactivity Screen identifies
food triggers that may contribute to systemic inflammation
[173]
● Array 11: Chemical Immune Reactivity Screen helps identify
chemical triggers of immune dysregulation [174]
The integration of these tests provides a more comprehensive
picture of the factors contributing to neuroimmune dysfunction
[175].
