1st Polybio Seminar Series (May 2021) on Youtube

12 videos available, some but not all of them about ME.

Van Elzakkers video is already discussed here:

Haven't watched much yet so don't know how relevant the various videos are but the little bit I've seen has been fascinating.

Video 3 (Anderson) is mostly about autism autopsies - but interesting if you don't know much about autism or want to learn a little about T-cells - but the last 5 few minutes are about an autopsy performed on a 33-year old with ME+POTS who died suddenly.

They found pulmonary edema with alveolar damage and haemorrhage. Speaker didn't say much about this except that it was unexpected. So maybe this person died with ME+POTS and of something lung-related.

No viruses found but it was unclear what tissues were sampled.

Study of autonomic ganglia pointed to T-cell mediated lymphocytic ganglionitis and this could explain especially the POTS symptoms.

Not published yet, results are still being written up.

 

Would "ganglionitis" turn up on an MRI?
