==New ref added == [https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0116820 Vos 2010] (now added) is data from the World Health Organization for all neurological and psychological disorders eg Alzheimer's, Parkinsons. This is also licensed for full reuse - one of the images (Fig 2?) would be great for this page.<ref name="Vos2010">{{Cite journal | last = Vos | first = Theo | last2 = Feigin | first2=Valery | last3 = Degenhardt | first3 = Louisa | last4 = Ferrari | first4 = Alize J. | last5 = Whiteford | first5 = Harvey A. | date = 2015-02-06|title=The Global Burden of Mental, Neurological and Substance Use Disorders: An Analysis from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2010|url=https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0116820|journal=PLOS ONE|language=en|volume=10|issue=2| pages = e0116820|doi=10.1371/journal.pone.0116820|issn=1932-6203|pmc = 4320057|pmid=25658103}}</ref> === Suggested refs to add === * [https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Michael_Lockshin/publication/6645171_Sex_Differences_in_Autoimmune_Disease/links/59dd198d458515f6efef11b7/Sex-Differences-in-Autoimmune-Disease.pdf Sec differences in autoimmune diseases DOI: 10.1177/0961203306069353] See table on Gender ratios *[https://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/handle/10665/43942/9789241563710_eng.pdf THE GLOBAL BURDEN OF DISEASE Update 2004] - WHO - see around p72 for data by gender. [[User:Notjusttired|notjusttired]] ([[User talk:Notjusttired|talk]]) 07:17, 31 March 2019 (EDT) ==Mental health plus headaches?== Might be worth adding some of these to the table - headaches and migraines more common in women according to Vos2010, but also a Fukuda criteria. More common depression in women means any CFS studies not controlling for gender will see greater rates of [[depression]] and [[anxiety]] compared to general population as per biopsychosocial model. [[Anorexic and eating disorders]] far more common in women / girls - but are they now common in females with CFS? Can't find any good data on this. [[User:Notjusttired|notjusttired]] ([[User talk:Notjusttired|talk]]) 07:17, 31 March 2019 (EDT) ==Gender discrimination?== If covering a brief mention plus adding info to [[Ethical issues]] or [[Stigma and discrimination]] would be helpful. No particularly good sources for this but I think this is a sociology topic. [[User:Notjusttired|notjusttired]] ([[User talk:Notjusttired|talk]]) 07:17, 31 March 2019 (EDT) ==More on gender bias+= Physical symptoms emphasized for men, ignored for women, reality of illness questioned for women. <ref name="Murray2019">{{Cite journal | last =Murray | first = Rebecca | author-link = Rebecca Murray | last2 = Day | first2 = Katy | author-link2 = Katy Day | last3 = Tobbell | first3 = Jane | author-link3 = Jane Tobbell | author-link4 = | authorlink5 = | date = Apr 15, 2019 | title = Duvet woman versus action man: the gendered aetiology of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome according to English newspapers|url=https://doi.org/10.1080/14680777.2019.1595694|journal=[[Feminist Media Studies]]|volume=|issue=|pages=1–16|doi=10.1080/14680777.2019.1595694|issn=1468-0777|quote=|via=}}</ref> - [[User:Notjusttired|notjusttired]] ([[User talk:Notjusttired|talk]]) 19:44, 17 April 2019 (EDT) ==Racial differences and discrimination == Leonard Jason has found (as well as others) that ethnic minorities are more likely to have CFS but ''less likely'' to be diagnosed. Is a separate page worth adding for this? [[User:Notjusttired|notjusttired]] ([[User talk:Notjusttired|talk]]) 07:17, 31 March 2019 (EDT) :Edit: I changed your comment to read “ethnic minorities” instead of “ethical minorities”. You gave me a good laugh there! :[[User:Pyrrhus|Pyrrhus]] ([[User talk:Pyrrhus|talk]]) 12:03, 31 March 2019 (EDT)
