Yup exactly, sounds like I experience the disease in a similar way to you. If this were the case there is also likely to be multiple different...
Thanks, seems like a good list. You'd think these hypothesis wouldn't be that hard to test, I guess it just takes money, time and some rigorous...
Interesting. What are the alternative hypothesis for blood pooling in the extremities in POTS again? I know SFN is a potential cause but is there...
Thanks for posting this SNT. I do think a process like this could explain why cognitive overexertion would produce PEM. If the exertion produces...
I wanted to know if other pw ME/CFS experience any sort of paresthesia and what the possible causes are. I have had tingling and...
[ATTACH] Summary graph illustrating the vicious cycle linking research funding from vested interests, poor science, and limited accountability
The purpose isn't to ban anything, the purpose is to discover the truth and help improve the lives of patients. If psychological research were...
I submitted this comment: Funding for Researchers working on the Biological Basis of ME/CFS The NIH needs to make it clear, that only researchers...
I think it's more complicated to accurately measure it than what's commonly done. My understanding is typically the velocity of the blood is...
Compare this to the NIH study. In controls, the NIH that found 3/17 (17.6%) had OH and 7/17 (41%) had symptoms. The methodology might have been...
Or even better, do the quick easy task and fail it so it doesn't go into the pool of rewards :sneaky:
My guess is that after the pandemic Nath didn't really want to be working on this given the other projects he had/has going on. As a result, he...
I wonder if blood flow to the brain had any impact on the results. There is at least some good evidence to suggest that, when upright, blood flow...
The Kynurenine and Pro measurements are having a lot of pull on that trend line. Still without those two, the measurements don't line up...
Exactly. This whole discussion makes me so angry. Not because this conversation isn't great, but because this is a nonsense test which should have...
Just adding on, I think the authors reasoning for excluding HC F is that his split between easy and hard tasks don't match his true "effort...
I am not sure anyone said HC F had the best strategy, but it is clearly more effective. There are some ways to play that are just better if your...
Not quite sure what your point is here. It is clear that HV F's strategy is better from the point of view of achieving more money. It may not be...
The EEfRT is also terrible because takes a complex decision making task, with many 100s or 1000s of inputs and simplifies it to a single measure...
Just adding on, this isn't a problem with the the use of EEfRT in this study, it is a problem with the test in general. The fact that the strategy...
