  1. alktipping liked bobbler'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?.

    Yes! before even I knew what was going on (so was desperately having to trudge through and keep doing), there was a point where someone...

  2. Peter Trewhitt liked butter.'s post in the thread Preprint Transfer of IgG from Long COVID patients induces symptomology in mice, 2024, Vidarsson+.

    Could someone with more spoons summarise Dr. Edwards' and Dr. Armstrong's points in a few paragraphs? I will then use this this info...

  3. Peter Trewhitt liked MelbME's post in the thread Preprint Transfer of IgG from Long COVID patients induces symptomology in mice, 2024, Vidarsson+.

    The hot plate test shows a difference between Long COVID and acute COVID. Heat intolerance is a sign of dysautonomia. Perhaps anti-M3....

  6. Peter Trewhitt liked SNT Gatchaman's post in the thread Preprint Transfer of IgG from Long COVID patients induces symptomology in mice, 2024, Vidarsson+.

    The Iwasaki/Putrino group look to have done that, per recent presentation of unpublished data. (Doesn't look like significant...

  7. Peter Trewhitt liked Jonathan Edwards's post in the thread Preprint Transfer of IgG from Long COVID patients induces symptomology in mice, 2024, Vidarsson+.

    If it was a good model I think drug companies would have sorted out the methodology and been using it for screening drugs for decades....

    Second this: "you always ended up with really bad tonisilitis (or something similar after tonsils were removed) every time you had a...

  9. Peter Trewhitt liked MelbME's post in the thread Preprint Transfer of IgG from Long COVID patients induces symptomology in mice, 2024, Vidarsson+.

    The controls aren't really there.. would have been nice to see what IgG from healthy with an infection does. Plus the pooling really...

  10. Peter Trewhitt liked Jonathan Edwards's post in the thread Preprint Transfer of IgG from Long COVID patients induces symptomology in mice, 2024, Vidarsson+.

    It is hard to wade through it all. Two things I noted: They pooled sera. That seems to me a disaster. If you pool 8 sera and give them...

  11. alktipping liked bobbler'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 an important question to ask as it is exactly this we need to get others to understand. Particularly right now, as BPS are...

  12. Peter Trewhitt liked butter.'s post in the thread Preprint Transfer of IgG from Long COVID patients induces symptomology in mice, 2024, Vidarsson+.

    I would love to hear a fair critique of the methodology used in this paper by you, with this valuable information the methodology might...

  13. Peter Trewhitt liked SNT Gatchaman's post in the thread Preprint Transfer of IgG from Long COVID patients induces symptomology in mice, 2024, Vidarsson+.

    Naive question: when transferring IgG like this is it certain that pure unbound IgG is all that's transferred? Can anything else be...

  14. Peter Trewhitt liked Jonathan Edwards's post in the thread Preprint Transfer of IgG from Long COVID patients induces symptomology in mice, 2024, Vidarsson+.

    Having once been an 'animal model authority' I am pretty sceptical about findings like that. There are so many things that can affect...

    “Another cool thing: our findings seem to have been independently validated by the @PutrinoLab, who recently showed similar preliminary...
