This article http://www.research1st.com/2011/11/18/pfl-testing/ by Staci Stevens and Christopher Snell of the Pacific Fatigue Lab, University of the Pacific, was just published in CAA's "Research News" and a link to it posted on XMRV Global Action's website. They describe their Stevens Protocol CPET (test-retest) and mention two other researchers who have replicated their findings.

Patients can go to their lab to undergo the test. As they say in their article, "Armed with this evidence, 90 percent of our clients have received their benefits."
