This is just evidence of reporting biases. If they conducted a prospective study looked at severe reactions (GBS, myocarditis, anaphylactic...
Yes, I did a double-take when reading that.
Note that there is evidence of GBS recurrence from the Pfizer vaccine. So don't let anyone tell you that "there is no evidence"....
Yes, it is frustrating, not least of which is poor signal-to-noise ratio in the results. What matters is severity of symptoms that leads to...
It seems they're deliberately mischaracterising the critical arguments as usual. This is nonsense. We're not talking about "biomarkers", we're...
Once again, no one ever bothered to ask the patients about how relevant (or confusing) these questionnaires are for their illness.
Yes and it shatters a common myth seen in medical doctor based internet communities such as r/medicine.
I am not a fan of this narrative review - the authors display poor understanding of the neurology and exercise physiology of fatigue - too many...
One thing I find frustrating is there is evidence (mechanistically and epidemilogically) of recurrence of GBS due to the Pfizer vaccine (and AZ...
Yes, is not just "Belgium", but the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Denmark, Norway etc, all reaching new highs in new cases per day. I think the...
But perhaps the sympathetic response is itself a response to dysregulated perfusion of blood in the muscle capillaries? Pooling and shunting (as...
Basically yes. A key point is we cannot measure the microvascular flow or the micro-delivery of oxygen, because the skin (and bone) provide a...
How about "Functional Unexplained Condition Kvetching non-Eplieptic Disorder"? I mean it's not as if they actually care about what patients think.
Rebranding!
This broadly overlaps with the relapse-remitting type onset of ME/CFS, which is a lot more common than regularly reported because patients are...
We've seen plenty of trials like this for other illnesses, they're rarely successful, unfortunately.
Agreed. ;)
JE is correct, that the statement is evasive. But more to the point, explaining the mechanistic relationship between the aspects is the primary...
There are models that are claimed to be animal models of "chronic fatigue", but they aren't very plausible/similar to real human cases.
Resting heart rate and heart rate variability are very non-specific markers and are usually just an indication of lower fitness and activity levels.
