Central nervous system fatigue, or central fatigue, is a form of fatigue that is associated with changes in the synaptic concentration of neurotransmitters within the central nervous system (CNS; including the brain and spinal cord) which affects exercise performance and muscle function and cannot be explained by peripheral factors that affect muscle function.
A systematic review found five RCTs to have assessed the effects of immunoglobulin treatment for ME/CFS; [42] of these, two RCTs showed an overall beneficial effect and two RCTs showed some positive results, although in one of the studies this was for physiological effects only. The largest of the RCTs found no effect for the treatment.
Graded exercise therapy (GET) is a programme of physical activity that starts very slowly and gradually increases over time, intended as a treatment for myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). Most public health bodies, including the CDC and NICE, consider it ineffective, and its safety is disputed.
The Canadian Consensus Criteria require "post exertional malaise and/or [post exertional] fatigue" instead. [21] [22] [23] [19] [24] On the other hand, the older Oxford Criteria lack any mention of PEM, [25] and the Fukuda Criteria consider it optional. Depending on the definition of ME/CFS used, PEM is present in 60 to 100% of ME/CFS patients. [6]
The term post-infectious fatigue syndrome was initially proposed as a subset of "chronic fatigue syndrome" with a documented triggering infection, but might also be used as a synonym of ME/CFS or as a broader set of fatigue conditions after infection. [26] Many individuals with ME/CFS object to the term chronic fatigue syndrome. They consider ...
The physiological symptoms of the fight/flight response associated with performance anxiety and panic (pounding heart, cold/clammy hands, increased respiration, sweating, etc.) are significantly reduced, thus enabling anxious individuals to concentrate on the task at hand.
There are no specific antidotes or protocols for bromide poisoning of the body. Increased intake of regular salt and water, which increases the flow of the related chloride ion through the body, is one way of flushing out the bromide. Furosemide may help aid urinary excretion in individuals with renal impairment or where bromide toxicity is ...
The Lightning Process (LP) is a three-day personal training programme developed and trademarked by British osteopath Phil Parker. [1] It makes unsubstantiated claims to be beneficial for various conditions, including myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), depression and chronic pain.
