Recommendations for Epidemiological Research in ME/CFS from the EUROMENE Epidemiology Working Group

Abstract: The European Network on Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (EUROMENE) was established after a successful grant application to the European Cooperation is Science and Technology (COST). This network aimed to assess the existing knowledge and/or experience on health care delivery for people with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) in the European countries and worldwide, and to enhance coordinated research and health care provision in this field. The EUROMENE proposal, was… Show more

“…The EUROMENE network activities were organised in Working Groups (WG), including the Clinical Group, tasked to explore existing methods used for the diagnosis of cases in Europe and to develop recommendations for the diagnosis and treatment of people with ME/CFS in the continent. The recommendations for standardising the diagnostic criteria for ME/CFS to be used by European researchers are covered in a related EUROMENE document [26], which will allow comparability and better estimates.…”

“…For all participants, the Registry scores responses to the UK ME/CFS Biobank (UKMEB) Symptoms Assessment Questionnaire to determine fulfillment of distinct ME/CFS case criteria [37], including the CDC-1994 (Fukuda) criteria [38], the Canadian Consensus criteria [39], the International Consensus criteria [40], the Institute of Medicine criteria [41], and the Oxford criteria [42]. This is to align with what has been proposed for use in clinical practice and currently being used by ME/CFS researchers worldwide [43]. Questionnaire responses are fed to a digitized version of the algorithm licensed from the UKMEB to the Registry, which is coded into the online platform in a separate endpoint that securely runs the data for scoring.…”
