It is time that ME researchers actually said it how it is. It is not that the assay is not ready for clinical use. It has no apparent relevance to...
CD16 monocytes are more likely to pick up virus simply by being older and having the immunoglobulin receptor (CD16) to bind virus complex. They...
The classification of 'non-classical monocytes' leaves me pretty sceptical. There are lots of these so called subset designations. But the crucial...
Good thing Trish doesn't live in Thailand.
If a ventilation/perfusion study was not done originally, certainly. A pulmonary embolism can show nothing much on chest x-ray and other tests....
And what if they have a disease called ME that does not show up on the virus-detection robot? Does it allow employers to prove that you are not...
That is a very fair critique of the biomedical science scene. I learnt early on how uncritical they are. A famous immunologist called Av Mitchison...
AN interesting signalling system that might be relevant to ME.
I am all for studies of wearable biosensors but this seems a rather peculiar application. Are well all going to be wearing biosensors all the time...
Apheresis for moving antibodies (as described here) usually uses a filter/adsorbing column based on a bacterium-derived antibody scavenging...
I can see that if you are running you would want absorption of fluid in upper small intestine rather than colon so maybe that is the rationale.
I am always puzzled by these claims about rehydration. If I drink a pint of pure water I absorb it. I don't have watery diarrhoea, I have a pee...
That would be 1.35% W/V. Sounds OK?
These people seem to be writing in the 4th century PT. (Post-truth that is.)
Alan Hakim was one of our trainees and took over the hypermobility story from Rodney Graham. He is probably now the main person in the UK pushing...
It looks like pure quackery. Anything that bills itself as a thought leaders consortium has to be a bunch of charlatans.
This should never have been let through peer review like this. All it shows is that if you have bad enough ankylosing spondylitis to justify...
Microclotting occurs in subacute bacterial endocarditis. It may occur in other infections but nothing obvious comes to mind immediately. Remember...
I think Edzard is dead wrong here: Sure, the LP is dangerous nonsense, but this begs the question of whether so-called alternative medicine...
Indeed, where is the Budd-Chiari liver enlargement or the ventilation perfusion mismatch or reduced GFR?
Separate names with a comma.
