I had a brief look at this paper earlier; it looks like a bit of a monster i.e. there a lot of information here. I wonder if these findings fit...
I've struggled to understand this for some time i.e. rituximab kills B-cells and B-cells produce antibodies. On the face of it, if you have a...
Based on a very brief glance, this article seems to suggest that Dr Naith believes autoimmune antibodies play a role in ME...
ME is a convenient disease i.e. if your patient has unexplained fatigue then they have ME. I wonder if autoimmune disease is a similarly...
@Jonathan Edwards I couldn't agree more Andy. I've been working with ME Action recently to try to lobby the European Union Commission to provide...
Regarding IDO1 and IDO2: IDO1 is substrate inhibited i.e. at higher tryptophan levels IDO1 stops working. I.e. stops converting tryptophan to...
If you check out ME Actions material then you'll find references to a peer reviewed paper(s) on why certain diseases get funded beyond there...
You've obviously looked at this more carefully than I have - good. Yes. Ron (from memory) said the Seahorse didn't work some times and they had...
I've been able to watch some of the presentations here https://goliveaustralia.com.au/emerge2019/ However, I haven't been able to find Phair's...
Ron Davis highlighted that his son had a bacterial infection (from the line he has/had) i.e. not a virus. Derya Unutmaz is presenting at the NIH...
Yea I can't understand why this hasn't been done by the lead agencies e.g. NICE in the UK. In terms of ME, we don't know if low thyroid function...
From my memory of the talk RNA virus's haven't been done yet; however, OMF are working on it. One view of the data is that virus's aren't relevant...
Yea this makes sense i.e. everything is down regulated so why not thyroid function? However, it would be interesting to see a trial, i.e. in...
Thanks @JaimeS here's an extract from the abstract which sums up the problem i.e. (I assume) false negatives in 20% of cases. "We suggest...
Thank you for your reply. I should have found a better way to phrase my question. Maybe there is a mitochondrial element to the other conference.
I recall your prophetic words, i.e. dismissing T-cell clonal expansion as a worthwhile research area.
Hi @JaimeS I thought the low selenium and link to low T3 (thyroid) was really interesting. Is there a definitive test for thyroid function? It's...
Check out the Barnden talk on MRI/Brain Stem. Only stuff I could view from the Conference presentations was strictly medical imaging (MRI etc.) no...
If you check out Cort Johnson (Health Rising) his highlights are "loved the Craddock one (most ununderstandable – but impressive) and the Barnden...
Haven't read this paper so these are just random thoughts. Some statistics relate to group comparisons so they say whether the control group was...
