As a social introvert I would describe this more as burnout from too much socializing.

Quite the opposite study shows

Our experiments show that brain clearance is reduced during sleep and anesthesia, the opposite conclusion of ref. 3. Those authors observed that fluorescent dyes injected into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) via the cisterna magna penetrated further into the cortex during sleep and anesthesia...

Abstract It has been suggested that the function of sleep is to actively clear metabolites and toxins from the brain. Enhanced clearance is also said to occur during anesthesia. Here, we measure clearance and movement of fluorescent molecules in the brains of male mice and show that movement...

@Wonko Why spherical ice cubes? Just for fun or are they special in some way.

Does anyone know if Rob Wurst studied people who experienced DOMS? Might not be practical since it only occurs for a shorter period of time.

It's going up to the upper 30's for the next few days and it's only May.

NEW YORK – The Metrodora Institute and UK company PrecisionLife on Monday said they will begin recruiting participants for clinical trials to evaluate potential precision diagnostic tests and treatments for myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) and long COVID that the...

Sue Gray, 59, basks in the sunlight in her former kitchen in Connecticut, shortly before moving into her mother's house. Sue has lived with Lyme symptoms since 1994. The pain, depression, and anxiety she experiences prevent her from working and have led her to feel unsupported, misunderstood...

Abstract Background Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has various sequelae, one of which might be hypertension. We aimed to evaluate COVID-19’s impact on blood pressure (BP) in non-hospitalized patients at one-year follow-up. Method A total of 7,950 consecutive COVID-19 patients regularly...

When I saw a virologist years ago and all my lymphocytes (CD4, CD8 et) were way below normal range, he told me that I was born with it. I don't know if there's any truth to that or he just wanted me out of his clinic because I was asking too many questions. I was a perfectly healthy person...

What I meant was that measuring wastewater levels are a good indicator to monitoring Covid and other illnesses. The levels here are very low so I don't feel the need for a spring Covid vaccine. At this time I don't want to go the pharmacy to get the same type of variant Covid vaccine I got last...

Waste water levels in my area are very low so I'm skipping the spring vaccine. I'll get both the flu and Covid jabs in the fall.

"FLiRT" COVID variants are now more than a third of U.S cases. Scientists share what we know about them so far. The strain also does not have large amounts of worrying changes, unlike some previously highly-mutated variants that have raised alarm in years past. However, the swift change in...

A New Therapeutic Target for Traumatic Brain Injury The team leveraged genetic tools to identify a specific mutation in fibrin that can block it from activating immune cells without affecting the protein’s beneficial blood-clotting abilities. This is especially critical for traumatic brain...

Abstract Background Traumatic brain injury (TBI) causes significant blood-brain barrier (BBB) breakdown, resulting in the extravasation of blood proteins into the brain. The impact of blood proteins, especially fibrinogen, on inflammation and neurodegeneration post-TBI is not fully understood...

I took LDN for less than 2 weeks and knew it wasn't for me. The agitation and insomnia was awful. But it has helped some with pain syndromes.

She did fit the criteria for M.E when she was diagnosed. I didn't watch her film, but when she said she stopped breathing when she turned her head was when she lost me. Back in 1999/2000 I met a woman who was given an M.E diagnosis for 10 years, her symptoms were similar to mine, but looking...

I hope they're not 'finning' them :(

Hand washing has become the priority to prevent airborne COVID.
