Search results

Yeah, I think just too few searches from those countries. For example, for Greenland for the past day, it says "Hmm, your search doesn't have enough data to show here."

I jotted down some quick notes from Wikipedia on what each of the meds above is primarily used for: I tried to look for cases of different drugs correlated in the same direction and which treat the same disease:

Note the significant positive correlations with stimulants: - The amphetamines "Dextroamphetamine Sulfate Er" and "Adderall Xr" - "Methylphenidate Er" (Ritalin) States in which more people are prescribed stimulants are the states where more people search for ME/CFS, which seems to support the...

I've been having some more fun with the search trends data trying to find what else it correlates to. Medicare is the health insurance provided by the US government. They provide state-level data for "The total number of unique Medicare Part D beneficiaries with at least one claim for the drug"...

I think they did test that. It seems the results were similar for fluvoxamine whether they used the outcome of fatigue or depression.

I've just skimmed, but it looks like they retested the PON1 interaction from a previous study (Haley 2022), but this time taking population structure into account.

Genomic interplay between deployment exposures and Gulf War illness in Million Veteran Program participants Abstract Veterans of the 1990–1991 Gulf War (GW) experienced an elevated burden of chronic health conditions, most notably Gulf War Illness (GWI). While the disease etiology remains...

Yeah it's really good. I can imagine parts of it being read in a voice-over at the start or end of a movie about a person with ME/CFS, where the subject of the movie speaks to the audience with some insightful or moving words for a bit before the fourth wall comes back down. Like the intro of...

I got an alert about a version of the document which includes abstracts for the five talks: https://www.actionforme.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/PRIME-Workshop-2-Programme-Talk-abstracts-.pdf

The results of RECOVER-VITAL (large double blind trial of Paxlovid) were posted on ClinicalTrials.gov earlier this month: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05965726?tab=results It looks like the results show that the Paxlovid group did not significantly improve in any outcomes.

I don't think Figure 3 is showing an increase before the infections/vaccinations. I would assume the circles on the lines represent the actual dates of testing, with the lines just connecting the circles. So the upward sloping line before an infection might just be a low pre-infection point...

The number of people that responded for any given ancestry will affect how strong the correlation can be with Google Trends, both because of less precision due to lower sample size and because an ancestry with a small population will likely explain only a small part of the variance in search...

I previously tested the correlation of searching for ME/CFS with all the ancestries available in the US census data, to see which others may be as correlated to ME/CFS searches as English ancestry. The first time, I used the past 1 year of Google Trends data and the 2024 5-year census data for...

Translated description from this video (note that a human wrote the lyrics and an AI made the audio):

It looks to be published now, though under a different URL for some reason. I copied the introduction, since there's no abstract in this version. Commentary: Cognitive behavioural therapy for the treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome in adults: a short analysis of the meta-analysis Mark Vink...

Some posts have been moved to: Causal mechanisms in fatigue, Morten & Williams [England]

Abstract changed as well: Digital physiological biomarkers predict within-person symptom changes in complex chronic illness Abstract Altered heart‑rate variability (HRV) and resting heart rate (HR) are common in many complex chronic conditions. Mobile and wearable technologies now provide...

MicroRNA sequencing of peripheral blood mononuclear cells reveals significant expression changes in women with Long COVID Abstract Long COVID is a clinical condition marked by persistent symptoms like fatigue and brain fog, estimated to have affected many of post-SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19...

Thank you for the context around these lab processes, @DMissa. Honestly, between the finding of general lipid increase, and that one specific lipid with virtually zero overlap, the latter seems more exciting to me. I'm sure you probably have other opinions due to more experience and better...
