    Learning from tragedy--a baby lacking critical brain cells and a medical detective story (2019)

    How the gut influences neurologic disease

    Possibly relevant to ME given the potential involvement of both microglia in the brain and the microbiome in the illness. The article, https://medicalxpress.com/news/2018-05-gut-neurologic-disease.amp https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-018-0119-x
