This is from the macrophagic myofascitis people. The case report is that of a young CFS patient (Fukuda) with "severe and extensive hypometabolism in the posterior cortical regions (precuneus, parietal, temporal, and occipital), amygdalo-hippocampal complexes, and cerebellum". The patient did not have macrophagic myofascitis, but the authors write that the same pattern is also found in aluminium-induced macrophagic myofascitis patients.

 

So this could be helpful for a number of teenage girls who developed "CFS" following Gardisil injections ?

 

This link doesn't work on sci-hub any more - or at least it doesn't for me.

The abstract has now been posted on this link :

I've just noticed that the original source for this was from "the other place".

I also came across a comment on PubPeer on this paper :
