TL;DR: A conceptual framework and a set of research guidelines for use in studies of the chronic fatigue syndrome are developed that cover the clinical and laboratory evaluation of persons with unexplained fatigue; the identification of underlying conditions that may explain the presence of chronic fatigue; revised criteria for defining cases of the Chronic fatigue syndrome; and a strategy for dividing the chronic Fatigue syndrome and other unexplained cases of Chronic fatigue into subgroups.

TL;DR: Conditions associated with unexplained CF occur in all sociodemographic groups but appear to be most prevalent among women, persons with lower income, and some racial minorities.

TL;DR: Compared with 1990 birth statistics in the United States, mothers of infants with congenital CMV disease were younger, and a greater percentage of these mothers were black, which may reflect different modes of transmission and suggest target populations for future CMV vaccine initiatives.

TL;DR: No differences were found in white blood cell numbers; immune complex, complement, or serum immunoglobulin levels; delayed type hypersensitivity and allergic responses; NK cell function; and proliferative responses to mitogens and antigens.

TL;DR: Significantly elevated risk for brain cancer was also found among male workers in the trucking industry and there was a linear relationship between the probability of exposure to EM fields and brain cancer.
