The Institute for Neuro-Immune Medicine has posted a video (42 minutes): "Neurovascular Dysregulation During Exercise in ME/CFS and Long COVID."

In it Dr David Systrom talks about new research on neurovascular issues in #MECFS & #LongCOVID

From ME Research UK:

"Estimating ME/CFS prevalence in individuals with long COVID"

During the early phases of the COVID-19 pandemic, as the term ‘long COVID’ first emerged, Dr Anthony Komaroff raised a crucial question in an article:

"Will some people who get COVID-19 subsequently develop ME/CFS? … many people with ME/CFS say that their illness began with some kind of infection: a virus, a flu, a bad cold."

Key points

- Long COVID and ME/CFS have overlapping symptoms, yet many studies overlook the proportion of individuals with long COVID who meet ME/CFS criteria.

- Improving on previous research, Dr Leonard Jason and Joseph Dorri’s study reveals that 58% of their long COVID participants met ME/CFS criteria. Nevertheless, the authors acknowledged the study’s limitations and emphasise the need for long-term follow-up.

- To improve future long COVID studies, symptom questionnaires such as DSQ-PEM could aid in determining the proportion of participants meeting ME/CFS criteria.

- Given the predicted rise in disease burden and economic costs linked to ME/CFS as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, thorough investigation is imperative.
