Asking the question about whether ME/CFS is a clinically useful category is, I think, reasonable. When I worked with the Heath Pathways team to...
Jamie Morten, the NZ Herald journalist, has had an interest for post-infection conditions for a while now, if I'm not mistaken.
We already are a sort of subcategory of orthostatic intolerance - and so there is a rationale for treating people with ME/CFS who have orthostatic...

Have a look at the places the virus is turning up - it's really variable from animal to animal. No virus at all was found in 4 out of the 8...
The macaques had sensors inserted into their abdomen cavity to measure activity. There were two species of macaques - rhesus (shown in warm...
With respect and thanks to the animals that died in this study; it's never nice to read about primate research that ends in the animals being...

This is the only mention of ME/CFS, well, the name approaches ME/CFS. It's for low cortisol of course: But, not a whiff of psychosomaticism,...
From the abstract, this looks like a fairly uncritical compilation of Long Covid research of varying quality. Most of the researchers are based...

An RNZ item based around the recent Davis, Topol Long Covid paper, with helpful local commentary from Michael Baker, a very well known...
[ATTACH] Picture from that NEJM paper that SNT Gatchaman linked - showing how the virus's spike protein can attach to the ACE2 receptor. And...
So, these researchers with links to the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Oxford have BPS leanings and mention HPA axis dysfunction...
