Vogt is either strawmanning or demonstrating his lack of familiarity with basic concepts such as systematic bias.
This seems entirely consistent with how a toxin or pathogen would spread. People who know each other would be more likely to spend time together...
I found this review interesting and some of the discussion could be relevant to the ME/CFS disease process. The popularity of elimination diets...
I noticed no one ever asks the patients with MUS what they want in an open-ended manner that allows all responses to come through. Also I wonder...
The way it felt for me as male adolescent with (maybe) ME/CFS was that I wasn't allowed to be ill. There was a lot of pressure to go to school and...
I'm curious what a study would find that counted rare variants in genes that could be relevant to ME/CFS. The genes where patients in comparison...
I think we need studies using methods that have so far not been applied or only to a very limited degree. There is a lack of tissue studies....
Your intuition is not correct. Animal models of specific genetic defects can confirm the relationship between the mutation and the disease...
I had my genome sequenced and am still in the process of trying to interpret the resulting mass of information. It's possible that actionable...
DOCKopathies: A systematic review of the clinical pathologies associated with human DOCK pathogenic variants The family of DOCK proteins are...

Sounds like they're preparing to publish a study that is crap and, following in the steps of their UK colleagues, are seeding the idea of...
I was contacted and told the preliminary results of the biopsy. It is clearly abnormal (in the words of the doctor) and there was a suspicion of...
The problem is that there is a very thin line that separates genuinely excessive worry from normal levels of worrying that is judged excessive due...
One of the SNPs more strongly associated with orthostatic hypotension in this study is a gene that plays a role in B cells and is exploited by the...
The overall association between common gene variants in BP loci and OH was generally weak and the direction of effect inconsistent with resting BP...
I speak slowly to hide the difficulty I have in constructing sentences at normal speed. In part this is word finding difficulties.
I was curious what the data on genes in ME/CFS was like. One of the databases they used was disgenet.org. disgenet.org. reports an association...
I'm pretty sure there is something abnormal going on with the joints of a subgroup of patients but it's not showing up in controlled studies...
Isn't it strange how the people who reduce every problem to "wrong thoughts and behaviour" also mention "biomedical reductionism" a lot? Also,...
Separate names with a comma.
