  • 2017 - The Role of IP-10 in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome[4]
This study found "compelling evidence" of the role of several cytokines/[]chemokine]]s in the physiological and cognitive pathology in a group of patients with chronic fatigue syndrome, although these patients were selected using the Oxford criteria, which includes many patients with chronic fatigue not caused by ME/CFS.
