    Persistent fatigue induced by interferon-alpha: A novel, inflammation-based, proxy model of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, 2018, Pariante et al

    It would be interesting to see how informed consent was for this trial. Given what is known about interferon , what risks were explained to participants? Were they all aware that potentially there was a ?% chance that they would not recover?

    Genome-epigenome interactions associated with ME/CFS, 2018, McGowan et al.

    I have not read the paper, so this may be drivel. To me it is not one thing, one expression that we should be lookong for in a systems condition. It is combinations which may be expressed more significantky in ME/ CFS. It is a systems condition and expression will be modulated by original...

    NICE guideline review: A list of appointees to the ME/CFS Guideline Committee has now been published

    Thank you for this reassurance. However i have a feeling that the deckchairs are currently being nailed down. There seems to be a subtle realignment underway, for which the treatment may well be CBT. I hope that i am wrong.

    "Scientifically robust" seems like an oxymoron in this context.

    B12/Folic Acid and D3/K2 Supplementation

    I' m tagging @JaimeS as i believe that she has had issues with B12. My aunt cannot take B12 she has had a horrendous reaction on both occasions that she tried. I don' t know which version she took - methylated versions may be an issue for some people. This is unusual as most of the literature...

    Persistent fatigue induced by interferon-alpha: A novel, inflammation-based, proxy model of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, 2018, Pariante et al

    Step 1 - define area of interest Step 2 - conduct a literature review to enable you to either build on previous findings/ explore a " gap" in knowledge From undergraduate stats lectures- first lecture. I take it the literature review was as all encompassing as the above result would suggest...

    Physical Activity and Sleep in CFS and Fibromyalgia Syndrome: Associations with Symptom Severity in the General Population Cohort, 2018, Joustra et al

    Are actometers worn all the time? From a previous thread relative to paediatric EC studies i seem to remember that their use was intermittent ( could be wrong) . In which case what is being measured is a key question. The link to activity and misdiagnosis is interesting and may be another...

    A predictive algorithm to identify genes that discriminate individuals with fibromyalgia syndrome diagnosis from healthy controls, 2018, Saliqan et al

    I agree, but virtually impossible to get anyone to consider this. I' ve given up with my GP and no private providers do any other investigative processes anywhere near us. I am hoping that this gets further study.
