Virtual Pet–Assisted Therapy to Alleviate Symptoms of Long COVID: A Prospective Pilot Interventional Study [Line breaks added] Background: Post–COVID-19 condition (long COVID) is characterized by persistent symptoms following acute infection. Given the limited efficacy of pharmacologic...

Reply to: Methodological Issues in Taquet et al.'s analysis preclude any conclusions regarding AS01 adjuvant's specific role in dementia prevention Taquet, Maxime; Todd, John A.; Harrison, Paul J. Abstract In our study, we compared the risk of dementia between matched cohorts of patients who...

I assume this is because part of the post was a very light, almost unreadable grey color. I've fixed that.

Solve ME: 'Celiac Plexus Blocks Improve Long Covid–Associated Gastrointestinal Symptoms'

Case Report: Celiac plexus block improves gastrointestinal Long COVID symptoms Liu, Luke D.; Duricka, Deborah L. Abstract Lingering symptoms following SARS-CoV-2 infection, recognized as the clinical entity “Long COVID,” are common. Gastrointestinal dysfunction during and after COVID have...

Yes, so I did gene set enrichment analysis on the ranked list of genes from the Zhang study, meaning I took all ~17,000 genes, sorted by the attention score they got in the study, and tested which gene sets were over-represented among the highly ranked genes. In other words, going through...

Yes, if it was education-related confounding, I don't think it'd just be something like they learned more in school or had better teachers or something like that. I'd think it'd be something like people existing in a different school year with a whole different group of peers and possibly life...

Could you comment or add a quote on what this is about? The article is behind a paywall.

Seems reasonable to me. Patients already go on ClinicalTrials.gov, where they'd see all these studies. This just filters it to relevant studies for their condition to make it easier. Is this kind of study even more harmful to a patient than something like a 2-day CPET study? Should those also...
