Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue 359
multiple case denitions for ME/ CFS, comparison of results with dierent case def­initions is dicult. For the interested reader, a summary of the most frequently cited ME/ CFS case denitions criteria appears in Appendix 1. In addition, an indication of the number of ME/ CFS case denitions may be found in Lim and Son (2020).
We have listed the countries in which this research has been conducted and have provided Figure 22.2, which displays in dark grey the countries in which this re­search has occurred on a world map. Finally, we provide summary ndings: a sum­mary and/ or conclusion for each article listed.
A review of the worldwide, decades- long, investigations into the possible associ­ation of ME/ CFS with infective organisms permits us to make several observations.
If there is an association between ME/ CFS and infective organisms, that associ­ation appears to be strongest for an association of ME/ CFS and viruses. And if an association exists between ME/ CFS and viruses, that association appears strongest for ME/ CFS and the Epstein– Barr virus (EBV). While Table 22.1 reviews some of the existing literature linking EBV to ME/ CFS, a recent summary of the pathophys­iological ndings linking EBV to ME/ CFS is provided by Ruiz- Pablos et al. (2021), which include signicant elevation of anti- EBV antibodies, defective EBV- specic B- and T- cell response, a high rate of active EBV infection, serologic evidence of EBV reactivation, and a positive upregulation of EBV- induced gene 2 (EBI2) mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of patients with ME/ CFS. Another unproven possibility related to Ruiz- Pablos et al. (2021) is that EBV may exist in an abortive/ lytic/ leaky replication state, which could explain the presence of certain EBV pro­teins (BRRF1 and BLLF3) that contribute to the symptomology of ME/ CFS. Ruiz­Pablos et al. (2021) also review the associations of EBV with multiple sclerosis and Alzheimer’s disease, making it increasingly dicult to dispute the ability of EBV to induce disease despite the mechanism or mechanisms of causation currently being
Figure 22.2 Countries in which studies suggesting linkage of myalgic encephalomyelitis/ chronic fatigue syndrome to infection have been conducted and are cited in this manuscript are shown in dark grey.

unclear. If we accept EBV’s ability to induce multiple diseases, then it becomes in­creasingly dicult to accept Koch’s postulates, which imply that one organism causes one disease. One organism may contribute to more than one disease and one disease as we currently dene it may be the consequence of infection caused by more than one organism. e association of EBV with ME/ CFS is further supported by the relatively recent work of Shikova et al. (2020), who screened 58 ME/ CFS patients for active or latent EBV, CMV, and human herpesvirus (HHV)- 6 and found a high prev­alence of active EBV but no active CMV or HHV- 6.
Similar arguments may be made for the relationship between enterovirus and ME/ CFS. Enteroviruses have been found in ME/ CFS patients, but they may or may not be causative. If not causative, enteroviruses may be contributory to ME/ CFS. An al­ternative explanation for the frequent occurrence of enterovirus in ME/ CFS patients is that its presence is permitted when the patient has an underlying case of ME/ CFS. Enteroviruses have long been associated with human disease and in some cases are thought to be causative, but for the most part, enteroviruses seem to be contribu­tory to the vulnerability of humans to develop post- infectious sequelae such as ME/ CFS. O’Neal and Hanson (2021) provide a review of the relationship between en­teroviruses and diseases with special mention of ME/ CFS, concluding that several of the cluster outbreaks of ME/ CFS were most likely caused by one or more enterovirus groups.
e Borna virus literature listed in Table 22.1 raises the possibility of ethnic and geographic factors aecting the associations of ME/ CFS and viruses. us far, it appears that Borna virus may be associated with ME/ CFS in Japan. Li et al. (2005) found that 17 of 82 patients diagnosed using the 1994 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention CFS criteria had Borna virus antibodies signicantly higher than controls (prevalence of 20.73 percent versus 0 percent). Since similar results have not been reported in other regions of the world, the possibility exists that this nding is unique to Japan and that population, genetic, or geographical dierences in the viruses that either trigger ME/ CFS or are comorbid in ME/ CFS patients exist. Such a nding could possibly explain why some individuals, communities, or geographic regions are at greater risk for developing ME/ CFS or suer more severe conse­quences than others.
Further support for the possibility of a virus- induced increased risk of contracting ME/ CFS comes from Norway: people who contracted pandemic inuenza (H1N1) reportedly more than doubled their risk of developing ME/ CFS, suggesting that the role of some viruses is to create the opportunity in which ME/ CFS may later occur (Magnus et al., 2015).
While some viruses appear supportive of or contributory to the development of ME/ CFS, other viruses are less likely to do so— if at all. For example, parvovirus has been thought to have a possible association with ME/ CFS. We note the existence of some studies that were unable to nd such linkage and note further that there are no recent studies exploring the relationship between ME/ CFS and parvovirus. Such studies suggest that ME/ CFS is not a consequence of viral infection or infection per
Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue 361
se, but rather is associated with specic infectious agents. Two studies suggest an as­sociation between cytomegalovirus and ME/ CFS. However, in the 2020 study cited above, no active cytomegalovirus was found in either ME/ CFS patients or healthy controls. is nding, however, does not preclude the possibility of a latent cyto­megalovirus infection. Results of herpesvirus studies are mixed with some studies nding an association and others not. In this regard, hepatitis C does not appear to be associated with ME/ CFS despite an overlap of symptoms, suggesting some vir­uses are possibly associated with ME/ CFS while others are not. Several investiga­tors have put forward theories of viral infection without naming a specic virus. It should be noted that there is an existing, albeit small, literature indicating that viral infection of peripheral nerves can trigger chronic illness, but a clear demonstration of viral infection of a particular nerve ber producing ME/ CFS has not been made (Bachor et al., 1996; Irie et al., 1989; Joo et al., 2019; Morrison et al., 1991).
We believe that one path forward to resolve the role relationship of infectious agents to ME/ CFS would be a repeat of the monozygotic twin study of Koelle et al. (2002), in which levels of viral load were found to be similar in both twins despite one twin having ME/ CFS and the other not. e sets of twins were tested for HHV- 6, HHV- 7, HHV- 8, cytomegalovirus, EBV, herpes simplex virus, varicella zoster virus, John Cunningham virus, BK virus, and parvovirus B19.
Viruses are not the only infectious agents that have been investigated for an asso­ciation with ME/ CFS. A few investigations have focused on relationships between bacteria and ME/ CFS, including preliminary investigations into relationships be­tween ME/ CFS and Bartonella (Bennett et al., 1994), Borellia (Pollark et al., 1995),
Chlamydia (Chia et al., 2010; Komaro et al., 1992), Coxiella (Iwakami et al., 2005), Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Yang et al., 2022), and Mycoplasma (Endresen, 2003).
While most of these studies do not provide strong support for linkage between ME/ CFS and bacteria, those for the Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycoplasma sug­gest possible relationships. One possibility is that bacteria, as has been proposed for some viruses, may be a predisposing factor to or a comorbidity of ME/ CFS.
Relationship of infection to fibromyalgia
Searching PubMed using the text search terms “bromyalgia” and “infection” re­sulted in 80 citations as compared to the over 7000 citations for a similar ME/ CFS search, suggesting a far less robust investigation of linkage between FM and infec­tion. Of the 80 citations identied, 68 were selected as relevant to the topic of ex­ploring the relationship between FM and infection. ese studies were conducted in the countries indicated in Figure 22.3 and support a worldwide, albeit modest, investigation of linkage between infection and FM.
e concept of FM as a syndrome or disease entity evolved in the 1970s but its association with previous and/ or comorbid infection was not initially apparent as evidenced by the rst publication exploring such a relationship appearing in 1987

(Buchwald et al., 1987). e complexity of the relationship is shown by the contin­uous albeit modest rate of publications exploring these relationships up to the cur­rent time (2023).
Table 22.2 provides a summary of retrieved articles linking FM to infection and suggests a large variation in study design. Further, most studies employed small sample sizes and unfortunately do not provide the methodology or criteria used to determine if the included patients satised the same FM case denition of the di­sease or even an acceptable case denition of FM. Small sample size reduces the con­dence that can be placed in the conclusions to be drawn from the study, and the usage of dierent case denitions makes comparisons of study subjects used in dif­ferent studies problematic.
We have grouped the studies by the suspected infective organism being investi­gated. Note that for hepatitis C studies, we have grouped seven studies nding a re­lationship together, and two studies not nding such a relationship together for ease of comparison.
From the data presented in Table 22.2, several observations are possible about any associations between FM and infectious diseases. e strongest association of FM with infectious agents is between FM and viruses. We note that the viruses most likely associated with FM are dierent from the viruses associated with ME/ CFS.
Hepatitis C appears to have the strongest association with FM, with hepatitis B showing a more modest association. FM has a more than random chance of being present in HIV patients, and we note that such an association was not found for ME/ CFS. EBV does not appear to be associated with FM, whereas it appears to have a strong association with ME/ CFS. Reports of a relationship between FM and with parvovirus or herpesviruses are mixed. Available ndings suggest the possibility of a stronger linkage between parvovirus and herpesviruses to ME/ CFS than to FM. Although we found only two reports suggesting an association between human
