There've been a couple of hints of iron playing a role in ME, too. By memory it may have been Birch and McGregor who independently of each other...
This recent hypothesis paper proposes a calcium problem in ME (not that I understand any of it)....
I didn't know how to answer either so I filled in just the last question of the survey, which was basically is there anything else you want to...
Didn't know Keith was also doing peer review on top of writing papers himself. Have donated to both his and Dave's appeals.
Just realised I've fallen prey to my own bias with this and also the preceding paper from this team :oops::bag:. I saw the authors' names and...
The original link from the opening post is open access now. Here's the link again, to save you going back:...
From the linked article, my bolding: FWIW, salt never made any difference to me. My POTS gets worse during PEM and in warm temperatures and...
This I can believe. Presumably these kids had endured a year of being told their thinking is all wrong. So the shift to being told that 'yes, you...
Especially given the increasing and often very loose use of the term PEM outside ME. I agree with your point but I'm struggling with getting my...
That's actually a technical term, I just looked it up thinking it must be a typo :rofl: Is this the longest ME hypothesis paper ever published?...
Even if it's not specific to ME I wonder if repeated HGS testing could be developed to be sufficiently sensitive to function as an objective...
Not in New Zealand. This is the current list of conditions considered a priority for vaccination. Can't see ME making the list even if it does get...
This study neatly demonstrates the pitfalls of using Fukuda. 1) We have a cohort selected by Fukuda which is likely to consist of 2 groups, one...
Agree with your comments re the questionnaire. Sad thing is it's one of the better ones out there, at least for guiding a clinical interview where...
I read somewhere that this fear is supposedly unfounded because the type of blood clots associated with the contraceptive hormones are the...
I never get swollen glands, they're not even palpable. However, they do get rather sore occasionally, chin, neck and armpits. Happens on both...
Lots of confusing data here. A surprisingly large number - given that virtually everybody met PEM-obligatory criteria - don't report PEM after...
Cort has done a blog on this study but that's still the closest I've come to the actual paper, beyond the abstract. Has anyone been able to access...
I think 'functional' in this context just refers to the images you get from fMRI. I've only a vague notion of what fMRIs show but broadly speaking...
Haven't read the paper, only looked at the graphs, one of which showed the results of a "trail making test". No idea what that was so looked it...
Separate names with a comma.
