Yes, Australia actually spends more than many countries despite it's smaller size... UK:...
Vermeulen 2010 found significant reductions in VO2Peak, but this has not been found in later studies and the image you quoted clearly shows a plot...
Indeed.. But since this article was not approached in a systematic and empirical manner, it could also be considered an exercise in confirmation...
Quite right, these studies are hard to control properly and many of them have shown both patients and controls having well above average...
I wonder if/when the comments will show up

Yes, apparently all we have to do is stop paying attention to symptoms and then the symptoms will magically disappear!
I am speculating and would bet a reasonable amount of money on it.
I find this curious as I know some ultramarathoners who can run 500+km in a week... They'd be burning on average about 4000-5000 Cal(kcal) per day...
Here is a youtube playlist of another person before and after the surgery. They have EDS and had the following key symptoms - neck pain,...
A key point still is that Jeff and Jen ended up developing symptoms that are quite atypical of ME or CFS. I don't see why it is controversial to...
It makes me wonder, have there been any animal models of disease that have actually led to effective treatments in humans? I'm guessing the list...
He's saying that ME does have clear signs. It is only invisible if you don't care to look.
I was specifically referring to the performance at the ventilatory threshold, not VO2Peak. The conclusions that the authors are making about...
I think it is important not to speculate as to the reasons why until we are told more details...
Yes, the real placebo effect is a transient reduction in pain due to conditioning of the bodies endorphin system. There is some biological...
Yes, an RER of 1 or 1.1 or whatever does not indicate that participants have necessarily reached a true VO2Max. To clarify my view, I do believe...
The ventilatory threshold is much more interesting than merely the turning point to anerobic energy production. So much more is going on at that...
Many patients in these studies were not exercised enough to reach true VO2Max. RER=1.1, age predicted HR etc are merely suggestive. Patients...
