Thanks, yes Ron did mention that, in relation to the nano chip device. Mella was talking about lab grown muscle tissue if I remember correctly, so could be a lot more relevant.

5 donations have now been made. So if bitcoin become valueless overnight don't worry :)

This video was even better than I expected. Maybe the rituxime results allows him more time to talk more about other items, or maybe he just can't say much about the trial yet. Either way, it was interesting to hear about the muscle cells reacting to serum, has that ever been mentioned before...

I think replication allows the research take a step forward, a massive step forward potentially as it could mean more researchers focus on a smaller area. In the past there were plenty of one- off studies which were never replicated, that doesn't help anyone move forward. I think they are...

FYI, Here is what the said about the metabolic study this time last year: https://www.omf.ngo/2017/01/31/metabolomics-genetics-study-update/

Seems like good news. I'd like to know if these 23 pathways were also found in any other metabolomic studies, if so then it would add even more weight.

Are there current treatments that would include Campath-1h that could be used retrospectivly to see if there was any (anecdotal) effect on ME patients?

For cancer trials I don't think placebos are used, the outcome is usually 100% objective so blinding is less important.

Is that possible?

Note: on the pineapplefund website, when you click on the OMF logo it does say $3m donated so far, $2m remaining, so that suggests they have broken the total amount into several transactions.

It looks like there were 3 transactions made to OMF. ( going by pineapplefund.org) This is the link to transaction 3 which appears to have been made today. https://blockchain.info/tx/f9f85afa1a3db9e47541680a1422e7ac648c675a2e5ee3a066c70fc136c5ab21

Bitcoin is plummeting in value, another week or so and who knows what value bitcoin might have. Maybe pineapple fund realise they need to offload now, before it's too late.

It does read a bit odd. What does "tell us about your readers" mean? ETA it is linked to the official website

I Assume you should add "contact" But I haven't read the website, Just going by the posts here. Either way, if the email address doesn't exist you will get an error email back.

What is that supposed to mean? Is that just part of their standard response to criticism, imply that the critics are engaged in stigmatising?

Klimas always presents an optimistic outlook which is good. I am never quite clear exactly what she is doing though! She mentions having a large department, large research funding and great facilities etc. But I am never sure how much of that relates to ME/CFS. Anyway I am very glad she is...

Thanks for trying. So much for Natasha Loder.

It does seem as if we are getting a message through to him though. This sounds like the something is better than nothing approach. He doesn't seem to realise the ME services he is concerned about withdrawing may be the very ones offering CBT and GET.

I was basing my assumption on this diagnostic algorithm. It starts with patient presenting with profound fatigue. I am open to correction.

OK I agree. I didn't realise (IOM) ME was a subset of Oxford but it seems it is.
