It's probably on purpose, given they had almost enough healthy females to match the POTS group.

This is a recent preprint — 2021 in the thread title should be 2024.

Interesting study and a nice, short paper showing that cortisol differences are minor, but there is evidence of low then rising morning cortisol in the LC-ME/CFS group. Seems they haven't controlled for wake time, which is a weakness. Also interesting to note the high prevalence of HIV in all...

At the risk of sounding like a stuck record, I believe those with life-changing disability and illness due to long covid are at risk of having their illness watered down with prevalence rates such as these, which are based on the very lax WHO definiton of long covid (any lingering (>2 months)...

I've been very consistently (5 results) between 1 and 1.6 mg/L.

Is that the same device used in the trial?

Perhaps worth moving this thread to avoid any confusion. This doesn't have anything to do with covid 19 per se. It just happens to be from Pretorius and Kell.

Is anyone thinking of submitting a comment, which is essentially a response to the editor letter?

I did wonder whether this journal was actually peer-reviewed, as I wasn't aware NIHR had their own journals — but it is. So it's unlikely these results will be written up elsewhere.

A 166-page report, in an NIHR journal. How strange. It seems they've not bothered to plot up the results for the primary outcome and instead have presented the results in a table.

Why use 'myalgic encephalitis' in the title and keywords, but 'myalgic encephalomyelitis' in the main text? Can only assume this is sloppiness.

This is an internal event; they usually have something every month. I doubt there will be anyone attending except BACME clinicians.

The problem with the BACME events is that they are always members only.

Just a reminder, or for those that had missed it: I wrote about BACME and the dysregulation 'model' here: https://domsalisbury.github.io/mecfs/bacme_dysregulation/

Ah ok. I wonder if she's currently working on ME/CFS. I think perhaps not. I can't see any publications on ME/CFS since 2020.

Interesting to see what Julia Newton is working on these days.

Like MyChart, I suspect MyCare is another version of a patient portal that some trusts are using. But no, in my case it is neither of these and it's just called the patient portal. It seems my issue is not going to apply to others because it's not the same software system / app.

Thanks. I've not heard of this. Looks like it is only used by certain trusts.

Thanks. Might post on Reddit. Are you saying you can see your hospital invite letters and then confirm, rebook, or cancel your hospital appointments in the NHS App? I can see letters from consultants etc in my NHS App, but this is different.
