The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a persistent health challenge known as Post-COVID Condition (PCC), characterized by symptoms lasting at least three months after the initial SARS-CoV-2 infection and potentially persisting for several years. While studies on PCC using lipidomics and...

I cam across this paper Apoptosis-induced mitochondrial dysfunction causes cytoplasmic lipid droplet formation A characteristic of apoptosis is the rapid accumulation of cytoplasmic lipid droplets, which are composed largely of neutral lipids. The proton signals from these lipids have been...

A couple of labs at least (Mortem and Moreau) have done some work with Raman spectroscopy, trying to find differences between ME/CFS cells and cells from healthy controls. As I understand it, it reports molecular signatures resulting from subjecting a sample to light, with the output being a...

And yet here we are in 2023 . . . Summary A 34-year-old man affected by exercise intolerance, mild proximal weakness and severe lactic acidosis is described. Muscle biopsy revealed mitochondrial abnormalities and an increase of cytochrome c oxidase histochemical reaction. Biochemical...

Highlights Fibromyalgia (FM) may involve an overactive immune system. We used endotoxin to stimulate the immune system in women with FM. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy showed increased brain temperature in the thalamus. N-Acetylaspartate decreased in the left Rolandic operculum. FM patients...

Preprint. Paper now published, see this post Abstract A blood-based diagnostic test for myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) and multiple sclerosis (MS) would be of great value in both conditions, facilitating more accurate and earlier diagnosis, helping with current...

This is an article from the Latest News section of Open Medicine Foundation, part of their #TripleGivingTuesday November fundraising campaign. Does ME/CFS Have a Biomolecular Signature? Raman Spectrometry Based Biomarker Discovery for Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (RASPBERRY-ME) ME/CFS is a...

Full title: The mapping of cortical activation by near-infrared spectroscopy might be a biomarker related to the severity of fibromyalgia symptoms Abstract The delta value of oxyhemoglobin (Δ-HbO) determined by functional near-infrared spectroscopy at prefrontal cortex (PFC) and motor cortex...

The aim of this thread is to collect a list of brain imaging studies of ME patients, with links to threads on each study. We have in our library a thread by @Woolie that explains the different types of neuroimaging and what to look out for in assessing the quality of a study: Brain Studies of...
