links to a 172-page PDF that lists research studies establishing objective evidence, with a mini-abstract describing each study and findings, here:
http://paradigmchange.me/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/M.E.-and-Medical-Abnormalities-Plain.pdf

This was compiled and abstracted by Lisa Petrison, PhD, who wrote "Back from the Edge," the book about Erik Johnson and his mold-avoidance journey.

Studies are grouped according to medical categories associated with ME/CFS:
* Cancer Risk
* Cardiac Abnormalities
* Orthostatic Intolerance
* Tilt Table Test
* Other Cardiovascular Issues
* Exercise & Activity Intolerance
* Oxidative Stress & Inflammation
* Cytokines & Complement
* Rnase L
* Mitochondria
* Natural Killer Cells
* Other Immune Abnormalities
* Herpesviruses
* Enteroviruses
* Gut
* Candida
* Mycoplasma
* Parvovirus B19
* Coxiella Burnetii
* Borna Disease
* Stealth Virus
* Other Infections
* Endocrine System
* Brain Abnormalities
* Cognitive Impairment
* Gait Abnormalities
* Sleep Abnormalities
* Pain
* Muscles
* Physical Symptoms
* Physical Abnormalities
* Laboratory Abnormalities
* Channelopathies
* Lipids
* Carnitine
* Nutrients
* Comparison with Other Conditions
* HLA
* Genetics

This could be useful in dealing with disability insurance and adjudication; educating primary care doctors - and family, friends, and neighbors; and educating media - in contrast to the 172 pages of research, the site also links to a mere 6-page PDF of recent media coverage on said objective medical evidence!
