I think it may be interesting that Beentjes and also the study looking at gene combinations from another group flagged up insulin resistance in...
I can imagine.
I grind my teeth constantly for absolutely no reason at all. And my teeth haven't worn away. So I don't bother with it.
I guess it is: https://www.healthline.com/health/spoon-theory-chronic-illness-explained-like-never-before#4 Rowling clearly gets things...
To me this is a nice example of the problems of bioinformatic, 'systems biology' or AI approaches to disease. As far as I can see it is devoid of...
It reads to me as pretty received dogma stuff about GRADE and RoB. I have sent full text to IC.
The beginning: Abstract The article in last month’s issue explored the place of systematic reviews in informing health care decision making....
I think this makes sense. When I ask myself how I would recognise ME/CFS I actually think that none of the stuff in the diagnostic criteria lists...
Stuff doesn't get fought in the literature. It just gets forgotten when appropriate. The tradition in scientific literature is to offer new ideas...
I think it may be simpler than that. Those trying to define ME wanted to include the features of the acute 'neurological' illness in the...
And a thousand variants on it, yes. A feedback loop is not unreasonable but traditionally the two problems were lack of any testable detail and...
I agree with Kitty that it probably doesn't make a blind bit of difference. Adding in PEM might well make things worse. The problem is an attitude...
You are missing the point entirely. I am not conflating fibromyalgia with ME/CFS. I am criticising the endless stream of misleading terms that try...
No, but the Oxford criteria were not criteria for ME. They were for chronic fatigue and so legitimate. The PACE trial was a nice demonstration...
I think if we can come up with something genuinely sensible at least it has a chance of impacting decision-makers unofficially - that might be...
And of course 'exertion intolerance' isn't the critical thing either. People with kidney failure and muscular dystrophy have exertion intolerance....
I personally don't like it as a newly invented term because two of the four words have no basis. 'Systemic' means nothing I can think of here. It...
That is encouraging but B cell survival in vitro is so temperamental that it would be easy to get an artifactual difference. You would really want...
I think that study could be very useful. So far we have one or two isolated cases of dorsal root ganglion changes that might have been by chance...
It might be quite hard to detect. If the inflammation consisted only of diffuse lymphocyte infiltration without oedema MRI might not show much. If...
