Handgrip strength in children, adolescents, and young adults with suspected myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome

Journal of Translational Medicine
Background Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) in children and young people (CYP) lacks validated diagnostic biomarkers. Post-exertional malaise (PEM) is central to case definitions and is usually assessed by patient report.

The Enigma of Fatigue [PDF]

The Journal of Rheumatology, 2009
Fatigue is an enigma: Everyone seems to know what it is, but a detailed definition is hard to provide. Like water, it slips away and cannot be grasped. There are no laboratory tests, no magnetic resonance image can quantify it objectively, and no specific treatment is available. Fatigue is a common and often severe complaint.
