    So since there is no experimental consensus of higher interferon Type I levels increasing or decreasing fatigue, it must be psychological, is what the article professes.

    Uh-uh, I don't think so. Sure, maybe some 1% of fatigue is related to depression, but not the overwhelming exhaustion in systemic autoimmune diseases.

    Need to look at other factors or cascade of factors.
