Why: How patients are defined and studied can affect what research can discover about their symptoms.

Summary: A multi-author report argues for objective clinical characterisation and biomarker/imaging research in EHS and critiques the diagnostic and endpoint assumptions of provocation studies.

Limitations: Consensus among these signatories is not universal scientific consensus. Advocacy and interpretation overlap with earlier clinical publications; this is not a new patient cohort or validated diagnostic test.

Scope: A 2021 international author report arguing for molecular biomarkers and imaging in EHS research; Martin Pall is among its co-authors.
