You're right, I was writing too fast and wasn't thinking. So yes, when researchers are just looking at a new potential biomarker, like the...
I think that could provide some value if the questionnaire was thouroughly studied to not have many shortcomings. But I think hospitalized...
Yes, what I've read is that curcumin by itself is almost completely destroyed by the digestive tract. Piperine from black pepper helps a bit. But...
I don't think whether they are healthy or not is important here if you also have a separate healthy control. The goal is to not only show that the...
I think maybe step count could be a good proxy. Although that would add some complexity in the recruitment process. Maybe people diagnosed as...
Well, I think it's important to include deconditioned and healthy. Because if it's just deconditioned vs. ME, then it's the opposite, and easy to...
I feel like as many trials as possible that compare ME/CFS to another group should include another deconditioned group, like sedentary depressed...
I would assume it fundamentally doesn't change much. They whittle down both healthy and sick blood to smaller and smaller subsets of weight or...
I like this guy. Charismatic, humble, good at simplifying complicated subjects, and insists on listening to ME patients. Seems like a great advocate.
I've never heard of anything with stem cells + ME. Why is this a bad thing?
Agreed. Comparing the same patients before and after inducing PEM would not only ensure that every single participant actually has ME, but it...
The URL is messed up FYI.
Maybe it would help elucidate your model to study anecdotes of medication triggering ME/CFS, and seeing if the known drug pathways could...
I haven't read more than the abstracts, but here are the two studies they reference: Use of symptom-guided physical activity and exercise...
I feel like I'm in wacky world reading this, knowing it's serious scientists in a serious journal. This seems like such an obvious attempt to...
It seems like he might use a modified Fukuda in his studies which requires PEM. This 2019 study from his lab says "participants with ME/CFS had...
I added a page to MEpedia for Dextro-naltrexone, basically summarizing what he said in the video.
I haven't dug deeply into this, but might be relevant: Molecular mechanisms underpinning laser printer and photocopier induced symptoms,...
I couldn't really figure that out either, but you can press the applause button instead, for one idea per day. Not sure how it differs from an upvote.
https://blogs.bmj.com/bmj/2021/01/25/paul-garner-on-his-recovery-from-long-covid/ Oh wow. I'm almost certain this was a spontaneous recovery...
