Orthostatic intolerance after spaceflight journals.physiology.org/doi/abs/10.1... 14 astronauts 10 minute stand test pre- and post-spaceflight All could finish the test pre-flight, only 5 could complete the test after. What's more interesting is the cardiovascular responses in each group 🧵

Orthostatic intolerance after spaceflight | Journal of Applied Physiology | American Physiological Society

Orthostatic intolerance occurs commonly after spaceflight, and important aspects of the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We studied 14 individuals supine and standing before and after three space...

THREAD: 1. Some years ago women academics contacted me unsolicited on Twitter (which I no longer use) about an academic in Melbourne. They’d made complaints to a faculty head about the man’s targeted, obsessive bullying of women colleagues, including First Nations women. The university kept him on.

#pwME there was a study in the past year or two showing the detrimental effects of psychologising physical illness. I can't find it anymore tho, does anybody have the link to the study?

Two poems by James Strazza who died this week. He had been suffering with severe #ME since 2019. A rare and sensitive man. It’s incredibly sad that once again we are mourning one of our own. May those that have blocked research and psychologised ME feel the pain of their actions 💙

A cute Beans n Bleb moment for Caturday. He's recovering well from his TNR surgery (a bit goopy in that left eye still) and turning out to be a real smoocher. We nose-booped today, which took reciprocal trust since last time he also bit me on the face, the little chaos gremlin! #Caturday #TNR

An ear tipped ginger & white cat. He's mid-bath so his tongue is blepped and eyes almost fully closed so he looks well dopey. Some of his toes are in the foreground. He's lying in my lap. I'm sitting in a wheelchair, wearing a capybara cartoon jumper, and rapidly falling in love with this little guy.

David Tuller is crowdfunding for his salary & expenses for period up until end of 2026, when he plans to retire. His work has played a major role in the ongoing shift in how ME/CFS is viewed, and Long COVID along with it. Contribute until 5 May. 58% of goal achieved so far tinyurl.com/5exx924e
