The Rosmalen paradox. I want to secure funding but unfortunately for me it is biomedical research: ME/CFS isn't a FND. I want to do my day to day...
I'm probably heavily biased since I don't belong to the mild/moderate group, but I wouldn't have a problem with a biomarker for severity. That...
There were some decent visualisation of the data. Unfortunately, with Twitter down I can't find it. At the end of the day it is the order of...
I agree there are multiple difficulties and any assessement is hard and becoming increasingly harder to do in the future. However, that doesn't...
Is the statement "our community is unfortunately growing larger and larger as the days pass." backed by data? The last data I saw, which is very...
A year ago a small, yet significant in what it found, preprint emerged from this study...
Well it seems like I'm not the only one confused by the selection of patients. According to the above Tweet from Prusty either severe LC patients...
Yes, there's actually even quite a few studies on this subject. It has been shown that blood plasma levels of cellular fibronectin increase after...
That is correct. I guess I got a little bit confused with the selection of different patients. Thanks for correcting me.
Yes. Some ME/CFS patients might also have LC+ME/CFS. Furthermore those patients called HC, never underwent a Covid test, so it isn't even clear...
To add to that levels of cellular Fibronectin are usually extremely low in plasma and only trace amount of it are detactable in plasma. So it...
Performs a test of 120 things on a cohort of 12 patients vs 3 controls. Constructs a machine learning classifier based on these results. Says...
The problem I have with this paper is the lack of consistency at different levels. Sometimes they use some ROC analysis to provide some...
The paper has now been published and is accessible...
I just had to share this study, it's way too funny and a good example of the quality of psychological research. I'm not using the usual formatting...
Soon you'll be considered to have a psychosomatic illness if you criticise clear flaws in psychosomatic research. The cure for which is of course...
If they are focusing on circadian rhythms I'd be interested in Cortisol readings as well.
These trials do exist. There was the metformin trial that made big waves and now there's a massive randomized Paxlovid trial (n=2000) looking at...
I agree and that creates even more political and pseudoscientific effort for those wanting to avoid the sceneraio, i.e. those who caused and are...
I think the power structures are particularly relevant. For a large part this means that LC is still viewed as psychosomatic. Admitting that LC is...
