There's this study, but it was studying CF, not CFS: Chronic fatigue and organophosphate pesticides in sheep farming: a retrospective study amongst people reporting to a UK pharmacovigilance scheme (2003, Ann Occup Hyg) There's the link between gulf war illness, which can manifest as ME/CFS...

I was emailing with the second author, Derek Jacoby. He is in fact working with Piyush. He says they have just recently presented this paper at the BioSMART conference in Paris, and they hope within the next few weeks that a peer-reviewed version will be published. He confirmed that, though the...

Thread: Increased risk of chronic fatigue syndrome following infection: a 17-year population-based cohort study, 2023, Chang et al Various antibiotics appeared to decrease risk of the fatiguing conditions. Everything they tested except Clarithromycin. Though the sample size is small for these...

This might be useful. Though while the thread is about trigger infections, I don't think they were necessarily testing them for pathogens during onset, but later when the condition was established, so I'm not sure if there's a better thread. This correspondence from John Chia and his son Andrew...

They tested a few antimicrobial peptides in sedentary controls, half-marathoners, and marathoners at baseline, immediately after the run, and 2-7 days after the run (only baseline for controls). Two peptides, calprotectin (S100A8/S100A9) and human beta-defensin 2 (hBD-2) were clearly elevated in...

I don't think that GitHub page is related, even though they link to it. I think it's just a user named mobius. It includes things related to playstation emulators and Star Wars and has existed for at least 12 years.

I don't think it's the same person based on the photo too: https://theorg.com/org/hack-club/org-chart/piyush-acharya

The lead author, Piyush Acharya, seems to be in high school. A news article says he was in 10th grade in Jan 2024. He apparently started a non-profit called DNanalyzer three years ago. The GitHub page says "Supported by Anthropic. [...] Our impact has been recognized by Y Combinator, the...

There's a whole fancy website showing off the model and recommending clinicians to use it in their practice: https://mobius.dnanalyzer.org/ It includes some findings not included in the preprint:

I have no idea what to do with it, but just noting that it looks like they shared all the raw methylation data for the hundreds of participants (sourced from 14 other studies): https://huggingface.co/datasets/VerisimilitudeX/EpiMECoV

97.06% accuracy is very high. One thing is that all ME/CFS samples were pre-pandemic, so some of the difference between ME/CFS and LC might be related to time of sampling. But to not misclassify any samples between HC and disease is striking. It implies there were virtually no misdiagnoses in...
