Yes, I've seen it, thanks. This is one of the studies the Academy funded. The idea behind some of these studies seems worth investigating, however, there are problems with sampling in almost all of these, as you have found in this case for example. Other Hungarian long covid studies recruit...

Several new papers have been posted on Qeios today but I haven't seen this one yet.

I have even seen a (probably now deleted) Reddit thread accusing her of taking donations and then not sharing with the public what she did to recover. That really rubbed me the wrong way, even though I understand how devastating living with this disease is.

Abstract Background: Patient participation can contribute to establishing high-quality, sustainable health services. This study explored patient representatives’ perceptions of developing primary healthcare services to identify contextual factors that matter to their participation. Methods...

I'm not sure at this point we have a lot of legal ground or even willingness from potentially useful organizations to help. I mean some of you may know that recently the Hungarian ME/CFS consensus recommendation has completely misrepresented what the NICE guideline says (it said NICE still...

New Jake Hollis article in Psychology Today: Can Neuroscience Explain What Makes Fatigue Chronic? The science of predictive processing sheds new light on persistent fatigue. "Key points The new science of predictive processing is prompting researchers to understand fatigue in a new way...

I see the first two authors contributed equally to this paper, one of whom is Ádám Dénes. I've mentioned him several times here on the forum as he is one of the Hungarian long covid researchers most prominently featured in the media here. Unfortunately he never mentions ME/CFS or even just PEM...

In the very last paragraph you can read that Dr Ziaja was invited to speak at the ME/CFS conference in Berlin in May. In an earlier post in this thread I mentioned several concerning things about this group. And another odd one is that I couldn't find Dr Ziaja among the speakers at the...

I'd like to add some more info because Leitzke has been heavily promoting this nicotine patch treatment in social media and it really concerns me since there is literally zero evidence it works. The above study is based on one case study and a survey that claims 73% of respondents showed...

Saw this on the Facebook page of the Czech ME/CFS patient org. Facebook translation: ME Day 2025 exhibition is here! You can now find a special exhibition dedicated to myalgic encephalomyelitis / chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) at the Westfield Chodov center. On the information panels...

If you read back just a little bit in this thread, you can find that I sent a rather harsh letter to the Ministry of Interior (Beáta Sebestyén specifically) and the Health Colleges who created the consensus statement. In that latter I told them they had misrepresented the NICE guideline and were...

I think we have another Slovak member here on the forum called @tuha, so I'm tagging him to alert him, he will probably find this interesting!

There was a member in my group who was diagnosed with SFN by a specialist who teaches at a university. Then he went to another doctor as part of his quest to understand what is going on with him and he mentioned the SFN diagnosis. This other doctor shook his head in disbelief and said something...

No statistics in Hungary either. Hungary uses ICD codes for official diagnoses but even checking the data for medical records wouldn't work well as doctors don't even know the code for ME/CFS or that it even has a code. I think very few people walk around here with an actual diagnosis.

Do you mean which one? Microsoft Designer

HCPLive: Aquatic Exercise Improves Physical, Psychosocial Outcomes in People With ME/CFS “Six months of self-paced, low-moderate aquatic exercise significantly improved fatigue, depression, walk distance, lower limb strength and peak expiratory flow. PEM was not worsened by the intervention...

This is such an interesting term. Not to be insensitive but I just couldn't resist asking AI what it thinks spiky-leaky syndrome must look like.
