Interesting new UK research:
Brain and muscle chemistry in myalgic encephalitis/ #chronicfatiguesyndrome (#MECFS) & #longCOVID: a 7T magnetic resonance spectroscopy study

nature.com/articles/s41380-025

"The changes in lactate in ME/CFS are consistent with the presence of energetic stress & mitochondrial dysfunction"

New US research:

Oxidative stress is a shared characteristic of #MECFS & #LongCOVID

pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1073/pnas.

"these results suggest a shared mechanistic basis for the systemic phenotypes of ME/CFS & LC...& effective, patient- tailored drugs might be discovered using standard lymphocyte stimulation assays"
