Biomarker for chronic fatigue syndrome identified
Journalists, this is quite the story. Here you have a bunch of really sick patients with docs around the world saying it's in there head. Then a UK study comes out (PACE) saying patients should engage in activity to help themselves. This only makes the patients worse and eventually so bad that the study was pulled.In comes dr ron davis. His son acquired me cfs while traveling in india. Completely unsatisfied with the lack of care provided by his doctors, he ventured off to research the disease himself assembling a team of esteemed scientists. They all begin to promptly kick ass and take names making more headway on understanding the disease more than anytime in history. Meanwhile, they have open conferences which are posted on YouTube for patients to watch (and see hope) and other scientists to learn from.Davis and his collaborators discover all sorts of cfs links and debunk a bunch of myths.really interesting research is occurring on trypanosomes, metabolic traps, and the microbiome. Eventually a large signal is found when the cells are stressed and voila, we arrive at the test mentioned in the link.This folks is how science is supposed to unfold and it all happening right in front of our eyes for everyone to see in real time. Quite astonishing. These folks will eventually win the Nobel, im sure of it.
