Feel free to move if this is wrong thread. From Todd Davenport on Bluesky: The author team received word today that Cochrane will not accept the...
This has got to be massively expensive no? Isn’t Whole Genome Sequencing far more tedious and expensive than GWAS?
Wow, that’s the first time I’ve ever heard that. It’s really refreshing compared to the studies that just ignore anyone who is too severe to make...
Yep. Though to be fair, a treatment that can improve my functional capacity by something tiny like 5% on a bell scale would be lifechanging. I...
The paper found high ALT/ALAT levels to be associated with ME. I looked through my blood tests and that doesn’t match my n=1 results. And I have a...
What’s worrying me is that the long COVID clinics in my area has started auto referring anyone with disabling symptoms to an FND clinic.
Multiple arguments have been made as of why, one of the ones that comes to mind is it’s an easy name to ridicule and misappropriate. “oh I have...
In my email correspondence, I did indeed slip in a link to the researcher applications for decode ME data.
Compared to costs of running a study, it’s not that much to pay each participant 100 USD equivalent which is probably going to be a motivator.
I emailed the corresponding author and received a prompt and interesting response. Interestingly, POTS and ME were not considered as alternative...
Anyone have access to the full text? It’s unclear to me if these are found in people with acute COVID or long COVID?
I hope we get a small brain autopsy study into people with Post-COVID ME/CFS with atleast 4 years since last COVID infection. It would tell us...
What irks me about this selection is it is completely unclear what happens to people that develop post COVID cases of ME/CFS, POTS, or other...
Some sentences that mention Ampligen They seem to mention wanting to prioritise researching the potential of Ampligen in Oncology. I haven’t...
The current situation is that formal mentions tend to be ME/CFS and informal mention tend to be CFS. (except in very informed or activist groups...
This is really cool as a way to include more severe people. It seems at this point long COVID research may be giving us clues into that stage...
Unfortunately, it’s not entirely suprising. The charity’s slogan is “recognition, research, rehabilitation”.
It’s pretty bad. Among many things they: * define “PESE” as “exhaustion” * In 7 pages, a single mention of “CFS” which is a link to an Australian...
