Very happy to, Trish. As you know, viral particles normally come in spherical shells (called capsids), which break into human cells, then once...
Sure, measuring IgG titers is not the ideal way of detecting enterovirus, as you will find the occasional healthy control with elevated titers, as...
Can you name any area of ME/CFS research which has a better evidence base, and where the basics are more advanced? By the way, those who are...
What's more painful are the mistakes such researchers constantly make when looking for enteroviruses. The testing methods they use would not be...
John Chia finds high enterovirus IgG titers in his ME/CFS patients are routinely decreased when using interferon alpha, ribavirin and oxymatrine...
If that is the case, why do ME/CFS patients with high titers to coxsackievirus B see a marked reduction in those titers when treated with...
Stated incubation periods do vary slightly from one source to the next, presumably because different sources get their data from different studies.
ME/CFS researchers who are not much enamored with the viral theory of ME/CFS, like Dr Robert Naviaux for example, suggest that these high antibody...
I am not really sure. I guess your question is: if there were an immune weakness appearing in the body, how long would it take for a latent EBV...
Can you link to the article you read which said they were outdated or disproven, I'd like to read it. I've never come across any suggestions that...
I was just reading that article on Dr Bhupesh Prusty's HHV-6 research the other day. This preliminary finding of HHV-6 being able to remotely...
I've just realized that the response of ME/CFS patients to corticosteroids might be more evidence for a chronic viral infection underlying ME/CFS:...
Certainly out of the list of pathogens that we know through studies are associated with ME/CFS, it's only enterovirus that fits in the incubation...
If think an ongoing abnormal immune response is also a good hypothesis to explain ME/CFS. There may be low level viral infection in ME/CFS, but it...
Erik Johnson proposed a good explanation for why the Lake Tahoe ME/CFS epidemic remained fairly localized: he theorized that the toxic...
Enterovirus is also a good candidate for explaining the ME/CFS outbreaks, because only certain viruses are capable of causing epidemics, and...
Coincidently, 3 weeks ago I did actually email Ron Davis at his address MECFSResearchQuestions@gmail.com on this very issue (of needing to test...
Not unless ME/CFS researchers get to grips with the idea that the infection is in the tissues, not really in the blood. If they keep pumping out...
Exactly, the ME/CFS enterovirus research pioneered in Britain was not really proven wrong, but simply psychobabbled out of existence. Yes, they...
Indeed: when I posted a comment containing some links to PACE criticism on one of Mats Reimer's blog articles on a medical site (Dagens Medicin) a...
