horton6 liked ME/CFS Skeptic's post in the thread Preprint Transfer of IgG from Long COVID patients induces symptomology in mice, 2024, Vidarsson+.
I think that would be the correct way to do this experiment. I believe the authors' significance testing is somewhat misleading as it...

MelbME replied to the thread [Thought experiment] In a random cohort of 100 ME/CFS patients (recent diagnosis via CCC), what can you know about them with 90%+ certainty?.
Yes this is very much in the space we are looking. Urine output, urea cycle (nitrogen metabolism), hormone production, blood flow,...

bobbler liked JohnTheJack's post in the thread What we're not being told about ME - UnHerd (Tom Chivers).
It is good, I think. He is very sympathetic. He also has a very good reputation as a science writer for coverage of crap studies. It's...

bobbler liked JemPD's post in the thread [Thought experiment] In a random cohort of 100 ME/CFS patients (recent diagnosis via CCC), what can you know about them with 90%+ certainty?.
This is now getting really far off topic, sorry mods, but i wonder if one's accent affects it. For example for me to say the letters...

Always said pem, as in pen, just swap the n for an m. Keeping it short and simple is what acronyms are for, I thought. I don't have...

bobbler liked forestglip's post in the thread [Thought experiment] In a random cohort of 100 ME/CFS patients (recent diagnosis via CCC), what can you know about them with 90%+ certainty?.
I thought the norm was P-E-M until I heard someone during the NIH research roadmap webinar say "pem", and I've grown to prefer it...

bobbler liked DigitalDrifter's post in the thread [Thought experiment] In a random cohort of 100 ME/CFS patients (recent diagnosis via CCC), what can you know about them with 90%+ certainty?.
So I've been saying it wrong all these years? Do you literally sound out post-exertional malaise every time you read PEM?

MelbME liked SNT Gatchaman's post in the thread [Thought experiment] In a random cohort of 100 ME/CFS patients (recent diagnosis via CCC), what can you know about them with 90%+ certainty?.
@MelbME this is only a poster abstract, unreplicated, and I don't know what ME criteria was used, but allegedly 82% of patients had...

forestglip attached a file to the thread Modern environmental factors.

Missense liked oldtimer's post in the thread [Thought experiment] In a random cohort of 100 ME/CFS patients (recent diagnosis via CCC), what can you know about them with 90%+ certainty?.
PEM pronounced as an acronym (rather than the initialised P-E-M) sounds silly to my ear. When I first heard it I thought it must be a...

Missense liked Kitty's post in the thread [Thought experiment] In a random cohort of 100 ME/CFS patients (recent diagnosis via CCC), what can you know about them with 90%+ certainty?.
Me too! That's part of it, but it also feels exclusionary because most people won't know what it means—it even stumps me sometimes...
