Greetings! We discussed on the thread about MEpedia that we would do a 'meet up and edit' of a single page to improve its quality. If this works out, I would love to do it once a week.
Here is the page on mitochondria:
http://me-pedia.org/wiki/Mitochondria
Right away I can see some edits that can be made in the first section in terms of adding more details, but where I think we can really work together is in gathering studies that discuss mitochondrial dysfunction in ME, ME/CFS, or CFS, always clarifying by what criteria patients were selected.
These are the 'notable studies' listed:
If there are any suggestions about how to best coordinate, I would love to hear them! I'm thinking we have one person be the editor, and others giving them information that summarizes studies so that they can add this information either now or later on.
Phoenix Rising often has discussions of a study, so it can be valuable to check out what people here have said to help you in determining the study's quality.
Finally, please limit your conversations to this page and how it should be altered!
