    Transcutaneous Vagus Nerve Stimulation in the Treatment of Long Covid-Chronic Fatigue Syndrome 2022 Natelson et al

    This study does NOT apply to ME as it uses Fukuda. That Natelson says in the background that this applies to (ME)/CFS , ME/CFS is not acceptable. Honest question - how is it that he continues to stick to Fukuda? He was on the IOM (NAM) committee.... He didn't write a dissent (that I can...

    Possible Application of Melatonin in Long COVID 2022, Cardinali et al

    I am not sure if the authors have considered that quite a few people with ME (mentioned in the article) take melatonin to try to regulate their sleep and yet it has NO effect on cognition, myalgia, fatigue, PEM, etc..... Goodness knows it'd be great if there were such a simple treatment for...

    Medscape: Do Fatigue and Exercise Intolerance Post-COVID-19 Indicate a Chronic Disease? (CME & Education)

    I wonder why it refers to ME/cfs as myalgic encephalitis/.... I hope that gets corrected....

    Long-term cognitive performance and its relation to anti-inflammatory therapy in a cohort of survivors of severe COVID-19, 2022, Duindam et al

    "Well sure, they have executive dysfunction, but really that's such a trivial thing.... " Haven't read the article so I don't know what sort of counseling they are talking about... (BPS or counseling to refer to specialty practitioners?)

    Changes in cardiopulmonary exercise capacity and limitations 3 to 12 months after COVID-19, 2022, Björk Ingul et al

    "...Only every fourth had exercise intolerance..." ONLY (25%)? That's A LOT of people with exercise intolerance!

    Autoimmune Gene Expression Profiling of Fingerstick Whole Blood in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, 2022, Wang et al

    I am probably being oversensitive but I am irritated that the authors go back and forth between using ME/CFS and CFS.

    USA: CDC: School-Based Active Surveillance (SBAS) of ME/CFS Among Schoolchildren, comments invited until 20th Sept 2022.

    Yes, in theory CDC is supposed to do surveillance. In practice, as we have seen, with ME they have refused to do so. In theory this project would be a good thing but as the school nurse presenter at IACFSME said, the project thus far has failed to identify anyone with ME. [Likely because there...

    IACFSME 2022 Virtual Medical Conference: Day 1 Workshops: 27 July (9 am to 5 pm EDT)

    As others have said, most people cannot access a TTT, but a 10 minute lean test is accessible. In the recent (July 2022) National Academy of Medicine report on Selected heritable disorders of connective tissue and disability, the committee commissioned a chapter (Appendix B) from Peter Rowe...

    Truly disgusting and horribly dismissive of the reality of ME!

    A journal for Myalgic Encephalomyelitis to provide a space for ME research to be published?

    While I understand the desire to have a journal that focuses on ME (and certainly the Fatigue journal does not do so exclusively), I wonder how that exclusivity would affect broad access? Would researchers/clinicians [ETA institutions] etc subscribe to it or would it only be accessed by...

    Risk of long COVID associated with delta versus omicron variants of SARS-CoV-2, Antonelli et al 2022

    Even if it is true that delta is more likely to trigger LC, the sheer number of people who have gotten omicron (and many have gotten it more than once) means the numbers of PwLC are greater than those who got delta. And little, if any investigation has been done about repeat infections and...

    Specific documents on CFS and fibromyalgia from a US agency (Job Accommodation Network) (2008)

    I find the JAN pages problematic as they refer to ME as cfs, the diagnostic criteria is still Fukuda, PEM is not thoroughly described and many of the links and resources are outdated.

    USA: National Institutes of Health (NIH) intramural ME/CFS study

    Ah yes! We can ALWAYS take NIH at their word, can't we? (Like in their (purported) commitment to ME and such....) Sigh!
