Moreover, nails are not made of collagen. Nor is hair. They are made of keratin. Even IV collagen would do nothing.
Measuring impedance across a whole cell makes sense although I never came across that in clinical or lab work. The odd thing about the nano needle...
The involvement of spinal glia in sensitivity to pain comes from rat experiments. People with fibromyalgia show 'central sensitisation' in the...
My understanding is that the needle has two electrodes very close together, neither of which is placed inside the cell, so I think they must have...
I remember discussing the findings with colleagues at UCL who are professional immunologists used to looking at immune cells in all sorts of ways...
The set up is probably available. The UK ME Biobank has a well documented set of samples and controls. If someone comes up with a suggested...

The BMA is a doctors' union. They could say that urgent biomedical research in to post viral illness in doctors is essential but it might sound a...
This really should be applicable to ME. It is quite different from just measuring how much activity people do. The result is the pattern of...
An interesting question. A lot of good points have been made. My initial reaction is that there should be a primary outcome measure that is based...
But do we even know that drinking more water is useful for OI? I think it is quite unlikely to be helpful for most causes of OI and there are...
I cannot load that link.
I agree that much of the is sympathetic butDrEnglish seems to be confusing two different things. Skepticism permeates our profession. It is...
This paper is too complicated for me to unravel but I have a thought that some others might sort out - I rarely get let down by PWME. Fibronectin...
A member of my family has been in a London hospital for five months of this year. They are a medical professional like me. It is very clear from...
Not really any greater thoughts than you have admirable expressed @Obermann. The additional problem with ICC is that it brings in all sorts of...
