Aptamers work much the same way as the antibodies used in assays. The difference is that researchers can make their own custom aptamers more...
The problem is even this hypothesis (IDO2 dysfunction in immune cells), this still doesn't explain ME/CFS symptoms at all. There is too much...
I wish such articles would clearly communicate that antibody titre is not efficacy! The delay substitutes quality for quantity and therefore may...
I'm not convinced about this "98.5%" reliability without published data for a population cohort. Serological tests rarely have such high...
But the body doesn't have such a system. There is no system of body-wide energy homeostasis, there is only peripheral signals telling the brain...
I agree, this study could have been really interesting. Measures of 2 day CPET and peripheral blood flow would have been interesting, though...
That is my experience of the rapid fatigability when exercising. The power we expect to be there is not there at all and any effort to push harder...
It improves performance when fatigued, so I'd argue it is 'more good'. Or rather, a beneficial response, rather than a perpetuating factor. This...
TBH, I feel more energetic and focus on symptoms less when suffering from psychological stress. Of course I avoid such states as I don't enjoy it...
Of course, because no one cares about the "social" part of biopsychosocial.
Such "certification" or a "vaccination passport" should not be used for anything other than being required for international travel. Those who are...
Some people are reporting worsening. (though this still doesn't imply anything specific about the pathology) [MEDIA]
When the system is working normally, it leads to more oxygen available by the cardiopulmonary system for a given level of motor drive as I stated...
The "common pathology" is that all fatiguing disorders are associated with central fatigue. We know this because the TMS, EMG studies regardless...
Yes, it will never be a specific measure. The effect (reduced repeatability) is due to reduced cortical excitability (central fatigue) and is...
It's worse when they propose hypotheses that should already be ruled out due to ME/CFS research.
What you are saying is not mutually exclusive. In principle, defects of the fibroblasts can lead to defects in the collagen networks.
The irony is that it isn't society in general that has such prejudice (that causes stigma), it is a subgroup of medical practitioners that...
This sounds like a terrible idea. There are plenty of (what should be) innocuous topics by which to attract threats (that aren't annoying...
Claiming that the CSI predicts CWP and FM caseness, therefore it has "construct validity" is nonsense, it is circular logic. For them to claim...
