Long-term residential road traffic noise and mortality in a Danish cohort, 2020, Thacher et al - "this study adds to the body of evidence linking exposure to road traffic noise with higher risk of mortality" Transportation noise exposure and cardiovascular mortality: 15-years of follow-up in a...

The more I learn, the more mad I get. The world is being drenched in thousands of newly created chemicals and every day more are being created. For some reason, the standard operating precedure is to release new chemicals after cursory safety studies, then decades later when people start...

ABC (Australia): Griffith University researchers believe cellular door dysfunction is the cause of long-misunderstood Gulf War Illness By Janelle Miles and Emma Pollard "In a world first, Australian researchers have identified a significant defect in the cells of Gulf War participants they...

Wow, pretty much all of the replies are mocking her, saying stuff about LC is not real, it's all long vax...that's disturbing.

I think the inclusion criteria line of thought was mostly just speculation by me. I wouldn't put too much stock in it. But yes, it was an attempt to explain why the differences seem smaller with deconditioned controls. Although, even though they are smaller, this is yet another study showing...

What is ART?

I think this might be more intense than pacing, as it's difficult to be cognizant of one's exact limits, and crashes still happen. I assume this would be doing far less than one feels they can handle so that there is zero chance of a crash.

Not sure if there are many other examples, but Ron Davis mentions one potentially successful case (or could be spontaneous remission) of someone recovering after avoiding crashes for a year: "One researcher had ME and she didn't have a crash and after a year she got better."

Merged thread I started rewatching one of my favorite shows, House M.D., and saw this lovely scene in the first episode (starts at 1:23):

Estimated study completion date moved up from 2025-05-31 to 2024-11-30. Follow-up period reduced from one year to 90 days. Added this to inclusion criteria: ClinicalTrials.gov

Email from OMF: "We are overflowing with gratitude and hope following the incredible live-streaming event hosted by Dianna Cowern (Physics Girl) and her outstanding team. Your engagement and generosity have shattered our expectations. What started as a goal to raise $10,000 turned into a...

"On social media, some patients have posted that they experienced a very prolonged recovery from the 2-day CPET. Given the potential for prolonged and potentially severe disability in ME/CFS, these anecdotes have prompted hesitancy to undergo a 2-day CPET. As a response to such patient advocacy...

Yeah, that's a good thought. I'd feel a lot better about such a study if they put activity trackers on everyone for maybe a week to make sure the activity levels are at or below pwME, and didn't just use questionnaires.

I thought David Putrino's talk was interesting, so I had Claude.ai make a summary to share here: Context Long COVID and other complex chronic illnesses present over 200 symptoms affecting multiple organ systems Traditional large-scale monotherapeutic trials are often ineffective due to the...

This seems unlikely now since there has been no similar rise on the day of or after Dianna's live stream which was probably much more popular: This is weird. Looking at the most viewed pages over the past week, almost all of them start with "A". Is someone reading every page in alphabetical...

Just had my appointment with the DO. It went well. I had been mentally preparing for worst case scenarios of the doctor trying to convince me I just have depression and me trying to convince her it's not. But she sees and understands my viewpoint. That I'm not expecting any treatments to do...
