DescriptionFrequency titles ME-CFS in 2023 papers.png
English: I analysed the 83 search results in PubMed of the following query, limiting results to reviews, systemic reviews and meta-analysis.
(((("chronic fatigue syndrome") OR ("ME/CFS")) OR ("systemic exertional intolerance disease")) OR ("Myalgic encephalomyelitis")) OR ("Myalgic encephalomyopathy").
I tallied the names in the title given. 33 of them used a name for ME/CFS in the title. SEID was unused. CFS, used in 21% of papers, was popular under alternative medicine articles [1][2] and in psychology/psychiatry papers. General articles and biomedical papers use the compromise name ME/CFS in various formats. Only one article used ME on its own.
