=== Chemical signature in blood === '''Researchers Identify Characteristic Chemical Signature for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome'''<ref>{{citation |last = LaFee | first = Scott | date = 29 August 2016 | title = Researchers Identify Characteristic Chemical Signature for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome|url= https://health.ucsd.edu/news/releases/Pages/2016-08-29-chemical-signature-for-chronic-fatigue-syndrome-identified.aspx|newspaper= UC San Diego Health|location= |access-date= }}</ref><ref>{{citation | author = <!--Staff writer(s); no by-line.--> | title = Characteristic chemical signature for chronic fatigue syndrome identified | url = https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2016/08/160829163253.htm|newspaper= Science Daily|location= Rockville, MD | date = 29 August 2016|access-date= }}</ref><ref>{{citation | author = <!--Staff writer(s); no by-line.--> | title = Researchers identify characteristic chemical signature for chronic fatigue syndrome|url= https://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2016-08/uoc--ric082516.php|newspaper= EurekAlert!|location= Washington, D.C. | date = 29 August 2016|access-date= }}</ref> ''UC San Diego Health'' and ''EurekAlert!'' and ''Science Daily'' By: Scott LaFee. (29 August 2016) "Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a mysterious and maddening condition, with no cure or known cause. But researchers at the University of California San Diego School of Medicine, using a variety of techniques to identify and assess targeted metabolites in blood plasma, have identified a characteristic chemical signature for the debilitating ailment and an unexpected underlying biology: It is similar to the state of dauer, and other hypometabolic syndromes like caloric restriction, diapause and hibernation." '''Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: Characteristic Chemical Signature Identified For Debilitating Ailment'''<ref>{{citation |last = Varandani|first = Suman | date = 29 August 2016 | title = Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: Characteristic Chemical Signature Identified For Debilitating Ailment|url= http://www.medicaldaily.com/chronic-fatigue-syndrome-characteristic-chemical-signature-identified-396234|newspaper= Medical Daily|location= New York|access-date= }}</ref> ''Medical Daily: The Grapevine'' By: Suman Varandani. (29 Aug 2016) "Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a debilitating and complex disorder that causes severe fatigue that is worsened by physical or mental activity and not improved by bed rest. While there is no cure or known cause for the debilitating ailment, researchers at the University of California San Diego School of Medicine have identified a characteristic chemical signature." '''Chronic Fatigue Syndrome May Leave a 'Chemical Signature' in the Blood'''<ref>{{citation |last = Rettner | first = Rachael | date = August 30, 2016 | title = Chronic Fatigue Syndrome May Leave a 'Chemical Signature' in the Blood | url = http://www.livescience.com/55940-chronic-fatigue-syndrome-chemical-signature.html|newspaper= Live Science|location= New York|access-date= }}</ref> ''Live Science: Health'' By: Rachael Rettner. (30 Aug 2016) "People with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) can wait years before being diagnosed with the condition, and there is no single test for it. But a new study may have found a "chemical signature" for the condition — a set of molecules in the blood that's unique to people with CFS." '''Association of biomarkers with health-related quality of life and history of stressors in myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome patients'''<ref>{{Cite journal | last = Fenouillet | first = Emmanuel | last2 = Vigouroux | first2 = Aude | last3 = Steinberg | first3 = Jean Guillaume | last4 = Chagvardieff | first4 = Alexandre | last5 = Retornaz | first5 = Frédérique | last6 = Guieu | first6 = Regis | last7 = Jammes | first7 = Yves | date = 2016-08-31 | title = Association of biomarkers with health-related quality of life and history of stressors in myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome patients|url=https://doi.org/10.1186/s12967-016-1010-x|journal=Journal of Translational Medicine|volume=14|issue=1|pages=251|doi=10.1186/s12967-016-1010-x|issn=1479-5876|pmc=5006431|pmid=27580693}}</ref> ''Journal of Translational Medicine'' "Conclusion: In ME/CFS patients, severe alterations of the muscle excitability, the redox status, as well as the CD26-expression level are correlated with a marked impairment of the quality-of-life. They are particularly significant when infectious stressors are reported in the medical history." '''Chronic fatigue syndrome appears to leave a 'chemical signature' in the blood - And it's similar to that of hibernating species.'''<ref>{{citation |last = Hrala | first = Josh | date = 31 August 2016 | title = Chronic fatigue syndrome appears to leave a 'chemical signature' in the blood |url= http://www.sciencealert.com/chronic-fatigue-syndrome-is-similar-to-entering-hibernation-study-finds|newspaper= ScienceAlert|location= Canberra|access-date= }}</ref> ''ScienceAlert'' By: Josh Hrala. (31 Aug 2016) "Researchers have uncovered a chemical signature for chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), and found that the condition shares certain hallmarks with a type of hibernation that certain species undergo to survive environmental stress." '''Biological evidence of chronic fatigue syndrome found in sufferers’ blood'''<ref>{{citation | author = <!--Staff writer(s); no by-line.--> | title = Biological evidence of chronic fatigue syndrome found in sufferers’ blood | url = http://www.sciencemag.org/news/sifter/biological-evidence-chronic-fatigue-syndrome-found-sufferers-blood|newspaper= Science magazine|location= Washington, D.C. | date = August 30, 2016|access-date= }}</ref> ''Science magazine''. (30 Aug 2016) "Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) affects 2.5 million Americans, often leaving them unable to think or move." '''Metabolomic Deficiencies Characteristic of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome'''<ref>{{citation |last = Lampner | first = Cindy | date = 10 November 2016 | title = Metabolomic Deficiencies Characteristic of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome|url= http://www.clinicalpainadvisor.com/chronic-pain/metabolic-features-of-chronic-fatigue-syndrome/article/525141/|newspaper= Clinical Pain Advisor|location= New York|access-date= }}</ref> ''Clinical Pain Advisor'' By: Cindy Lampner. (10 Nov 2016) "In a study designed to test the utility of targeted metabolomics in the diagnosis of myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), researchers identified a unique chemical signature that differentiates affected patients from healthy individuals."
