I find it likely that it is a property of LC and also ME/CFS, but very unlikely that GFAP remains elevated for such a long period without...
The main issue at hand, in terms of commonly used biomarkers to determine CNS damage (such as GFAP), is that LC patients were not controlled for...
What's pretty insane about this, apart from the study population size, is that GDF15 is fully expected to be higher in an older population.
I doubt that GDF15 will be a good predictor/biomarker for LC and ME/CFS, but the study design (not in terms of how many patients were used!) is...
Could someone with more spoons summarise Dr. Edwards' and Dr. Armstrong's points in a few paragraphs? I will then use this this info and run it...
I would love to hear a fair critique of the methodology used in this paper by you, with this valuable information the methodology might actually...
I am 100% certain that I lose water during PEM. I am bedridden, my caregivers measure every single ml of input and output. They have been doing...
They all had an insufficient workup during the acute and sub-acute stage of their disease/trigger event, making it close to impossible to hunt...
Thank you again, Chris. Your hypothesis seems to indicate that mitochondria are not functioning correctly, the obvious go to organelle, do you...
Thank you! When you say full system level, what do you mean by that? Every cell is affected? Can you give us a little preview of what data will...
That's basially what is causing ME/CFS, but somehow everybody still talks about 'no neurological' damage all the time.
There should be, very roughly of course, thousands of families worldwide with more than $50 MIO at their hands who have a close family member with...
U Understood, thank you. If you see a realistic chance to include a small PEM pilot cohort, and if it’s just 5-10 samples, and if you think...
Thank you for your insights, @chillier ! Have you considered using PEM samples for your projects and to compare them? I can not really say a lot...
If Tronstadt helps them with methodology, is this attempt of replication an 'independent' replication? All in all, this still looks like a sound...
Hey! How have you been doing? Are you still on Levamisole? Thank you!
While I appreciate the creator of this thread very much for his insights and intelligence, I think this won't work. What might have a chance of...
I am not sure in which way he meant it, but, I agree with it universally: to assert that advocates are not doing a good enough job, including...
SolveME should have changed its name years ago, it's highly questionable what they are doing from an ME perspective, it has morphed into some "do...
If you equate what you are doing personally with what US advocacy is doing as a whole, that is your problem, not mine. ME/CFS in comparison to...
