    Impact of extreme physical exercise (28 consecutive marathons) on sleep time and structure, 2025, Buela-Casal et al

    Maybe 28 consecutive marathons (!) is what it takes for a healthy person to experience PEM.

    Germany: ME/CFS Research Foundation

    Video on the ME/CFS Research Foundation Youtube channel. It's a really catchy song. The title translates to "What we want". And here is a Claude translation of the auto-generated lyrics: Google translation of the description:

    Agomelatine but not melatonin improves fatigue perception: A longitudinal proof-of-concept study, Pardini et al, 2014

    Impressive looking results. Only 1 dropout out of 31 in the agomelatine group. I wonder if it'd be better to individually assign participants to placebo or active, instead of assigning them to "group A" or "group B", because for the group method, if a clinician is able to guess a single...

    Open Norway: Plasma cell aimed treatment with daratumumab in ME/CFS - Haukeland University Hospital

    I don't understand this part. The risk is that a drug doesn't work and makes no money. They can't choose to not bear the cost of making no profit.

    Open Norway: Plasma cell aimed treatment with daratumumab in ME/CFS - Haukeland University Hospital

    I think the main question is if the really expensive drugs will still get made. Pharma companies have to spend billions, not only on the drugs that eventually make a profit, but on plenty that never make a dime. If they have to sell these billion dollar drugs at market prices that might not...

    Open Norway: Plasma cell aimed treatment with daratumumab in ME/CFS - Haukeland University Hospital

    I'm working with a beginner's understanding, but I thought we've got memory B cells and long-lived plasma B cells for any particular antigen, and the memory B cells continually create new long-lived cells to replace those that die. So if Dara wiped out the long-lived cells, after some time, the...

    Agomelatine but not melatonin improves fatigue perception: A longitudinal proof-of-concept study, Pardini et al, 2014

    FYI, in case anyone didn't notice at first (like me), the paper is from 2014.

    Nutrient tracking experiment

    PEM definitely affects my diet. I eat more total calories, and eat less variety because I have less energy to prepare foods. Hopefully, my basic understanding of granger causality is correct, where it would essentially "control" for previous upright time, so it should mitigate confounding from...

    Nutrient tracking experiment

    I'm still working on my nutrient tracking experiment. Just wanted to outline the direction I'm hoping for it to go. Data collection consists of two parts: Nutrients Using the app Cronometer, I am tracking the weight of every food I eat. Except for very rare exceptions, I only eat foods that...

    Submaximal 2-day cardiopulmonary exercise testing to assess exercise capacity and [PESE] in people with long COVID 2025 Thomas et al

    I guess because the final equation is based on positive differences minus negative differences, so zero differences wouldn't have a place. But in terms of the theory, my brain is too foggy to follow this right now, but these two webpages give some context...

    Submaximal 2-day cardiopulmonary exercise testing to assess exercise capacity and [PESE] in people with long COVID 2025 Thomas et al

    They used this method described in the paper: I didn't know what it meant, so I asked ChatGPT to write the Python to calculate this effect size, and using the provided code below I get 0.742. import pandas as pd import numpy as np from scipy.stats import rankdata # Sample DataFrame with paired...

    Submaximal 2-day cardiopulmonary exercise testing to assess exercise capacity and [PESE] in people with long COVID 2025 Thomas et al

    Oh that is weird. I tried as well using age and height. In dataset 1, there are two participants with age 68 (heights 165 and 167.2), while in dataset 2, there is only one participant with age 68, and they have height 165. There's a participant listed with height 167.2 but their age is 54.

    The relationship of cytomegalovirus with physical functioning and health-related quality of life in older adults, 2025

    I think the main potential multiple testing issue would be where they looked at the association of CMV with 8 different domains of the SF-36, then only used the most significant for the followup linear regression. If there was barely any pattern of p-values, I'd be more concerned. But 5 out of 8...
