I noticed the article too. My thought is that they discovered a separate sleep function, and that it possibly only applies to simple brainless...
The paper supports my hypotheses for ME. For quite a long part of my ME, T2 (3-5 diiodothyronine) was an important treatment for me. A single...
One thing that bothered me about the ME research projects is that their email addresses disappeared. If a patient discovers something, whether a...
How about laying in bed while a boxer pummels you? :blackeye:
If that's what it did, it could be remarketed as "Pet cat in a pill. No litter box to clean!". :emoji_cat2: Regarding the pill in question, I...
I wonder whether there's some sort of bias against following up (or funding) research that has been done x years ago, even if it's suddenly become...
Have there been a clear clinical answer to the question: "Do PWME have lower ATP production and/or reserves?" I've seen some studies saying yes,...
Yes, I think it's the neurons involved in motivation not functioning normally. There seems to be some understanding of the parts of the brain...
If it had been clearly labelled: "One hypothesis", I wouldn't have a problem with it. At least it's something other than "It's a psychiatric...
I agree; it can confuse perceptions, and it doesn't apply to all PWME. My preferred explanation for how it feels is how we feel when we have a...
A good topic. As with several other posters, I do not feel any reduction in available energy or the rate at which I can use it. I believe I have...
What's the goal of providing funding for medical research? Is it just to boost the public image of the donors or fund allocation organizations?...
How are waste products removed? If they're pumped out through astrocytes, do the astrocytes not absorb it from CSF? Regardless of the final...
Well, what do you expect from a psychologist? It's the 'if you have a hammer, everything looks like a nail' syndrome.
There was another research paper last year that explained how the slow brainwaves of deep sleep helped pump fluids from the brain. Astrocytes...
You could tape (or otherwise attach) strips of light-blocking material to the outside edges of the door, extending past the opening. I think that...
Also, at least some parts of the immune system are non-linear (think of the result a a tiny amount of allergen to some people), so the measure of...
I wonder whether anyone has considered making all medical test results available as anonymous 'big data'. Imagine if this research group could...
Treating ME symptoms is pretty difficult, because I think in most cases no one knows what the actual cause of the symptom is. I've managed to...
I wonder whether that simply a bias due to education levels, economic status, or some other such factor that affects reporting of ME. It might...
