I don't know of course, but this study seems really underpowered, given the numbers, especially of the post-Covid-19 controls, and the variable...
It looks to me as though the athletes were back to training very quickly. The mean length of the Covid-19 symptoms was just 3 days. It was...
Chinese study First, just a note about the ethics. It sounds as though the athletes may have been deliberately infected for this study. The...
Thanks SNT. Looks like a handy tool. For those like me not up with the jargon: I don't think post-exertional malaise is a MeSH term? (excuse...
We have merged the news of the Times article into this thread about the Marshall Gradisnik NCNED study. The thread about the genetic study is...
This is an interesting paper, and it's clearly written. Inevitably, there are many assumptions that are arguable. The author notes that the...
Rehabilitation clearly comes with a substantial cost to the participants (which include parents in the case of paediatric patients) and to the...

Unfortunately actual levels of key molecules don't support this theory. The vast majority of people with ME/CFS have cortisol levels in the...

Reading about GDF15: GDF15: a potential therapeutic target for type 1 diabetes Also, a study on endometriosis found that GDF15 is not...
The connection with severe ME/CFS, and particularly those who experience difficulties eating are certainly interesting. Off the top of my head:...
Yes, I thought it was a good interview. Worth a listen. (Seems like a fair chunk of S4ME's NZ members listen to RadioNZ.) It was interesting to...
Thanks to the people who have responded so helpfully. That file you have linked to @Valerie Eliot Smith is interesting reading.
In the UK something similar happened. The Medical Research Council (MRC) up to at least 1995 tried to pretend they were funding ME research while...
Interesting to note that this is a Shanghai study, and there are also quite a lot of Chinese studies in the references that are investigating...
Aged, male, unvaccinated... So, possibly antivirals during the acute illness reduce the severity and so reduce symptoms related to the severity of...
I assume this is the paper suggesting that metformin reduces Long Covid, and reduces viral load. [Preprint] Metformin reduces SARS-CoV-2 in a...
Here's the evidence quoted for the CAN-PCC decision. It seems to be based on some evidence that metformin helps with acute Covid-19 and one RCT...
