The authors say: 'At this stage, it is not clear whether IFN-γ is a mediator or a biomarker of Long Covid symptoms. For future work, it is...
I've been trying to fathom whether the study authors collected enough data on symptoms to be able to identify a subset of PwME post-hoc and see if...
Could we get such a study done via the UK ME/CFS Biobank? This could be done very quickly, surely?
If I've understood the cited paper correctly, they've done this but in poorly characterised PwLC, not PwME.
The submissions deadline isn't until 19th May, though...
What would be involved in moving forward with testing your hypothesis with ELISPOT? Do you already have the means/people/money to do it or would...
Maybe it will be cheaper now that its online. Patients should be able to attend free or for no more than a fiver to cover any additional streaming...
Can patients attend this? Would you fancy giving the paper you're working on, @Jonathan Edwards?
Very sorry to hear that. Good luck.
I've literally had nightmares about that, for years - recurring ones. There would come a point in real life where I coudn't go on, but I've never...
It's such a pity we've never been able to get them on TV being grilled by a journalist on this, for all to see, or in front of a select committee....
Is that really humanly possible, that they don't know what they're doing? They're professors, some of these people, and a child can understand the...
Would you accept that if patients know that they're receiving a treatment and they know that it is supposed to be effective, you can't trust their...
I used to think that research misconduct was a thing, and that someone was policing it - maybe the person's university - and that there would be...
Thanks. That's all relative, though! Just because risk is higher via the mouth, it doesn't mean you can't get sick from virus up the nose. Also,...
But flu virus goes up your nose. Even if you were chewing this stuff in the presence of someone breathing flu all over you, wouldn't you still get...
Thanks, @Jonathan Edwards. Never seen such a thorough and solid account of what's wrong with the BPS school when it comes to ME/CFS. I wish we...
That's a good point, I wasn't considering possible international differences!
That is the correct style rule. Normally, in text, we use words for the numbers to ten and digits thereafter but when we have two or more numbers...
This is true - PwME famously look loads younger than we really are, and I sure do. Meanwhile, someone I know has just been dealing with skin...
