Its not quite that, its more like we aren't going to try and objectively measure PEM (for the reasons given) but instead going to measure lots of...
Upon further reflection, I think my biggest gripe with the paper (besides the small sample size and BPS influences) is it took so long to come out...
This may be an unpopular opinion but I understand why they used a 1-day CPET. It makes sense that by taking measurements when PEM is induced on...
Um isn't that like 4 times the legal limit for driving?
Wow 15 months for the paper to be published seems crazy.
I have been trying to figure out how DCE-MRI works and what is shows regarding BBB disfunction. They inject a contrast agent, in this case...
The vast majority of the people were not picked because they had an onset greater than 5 years ago, had no record of infection or had other...
Its not so much that my brain is somehow preventing me from pushing through. I can push through but I understand that comes at a cost. I generally...
This difference in performance correlated with decreased activity of the right temporal-parietal junction, a part of the brain that is focused on...
Some other information on recruitment that I found in Supplementary Data 2. There were 484 people that applied for the study. Of those, 137 were...
Does anyone have any thoughts on why none of the participants had pots? Is this a selection problem or are pots and ME just unrelated?? I really...
Certainly a confusing and wandering paper. My take away from reading for the first time is that there is some central issue but the authors...
Slightly off topic but I often think about how many other processes in the body could easily be thought of as functional if we had limited...
My problem with FND is when doctors and institutions claim that there is no physical or biological cause. The Mayo clinic's website states...
I have never understood the software v hardware analogy. Do they think software is some magical entity that has no physical basis? Software is...
One of the studies I am more excited to see results from!
Yes I worded that incorrectly, I think the decline on a 2-day CPET is likely to be associated with PEM in people with ME. However, I'm not...
I think we can be fairly certain that Vo2 max and other CPET measures are not analogous to PEM. If a healthy control experiences a reduction in...
So ironic that he recommends something which he claims jury is still out on... Perhaps that shows he hasn't in-fact comprehensively looked at...
"And now the brain goes into overdrive and starts over-interpreting even quite innocent stress and activates the pain" I've seen this kind of...
Separate names with a comma.
