Kenny de Meirleir is a professor of physiology and internal medicine at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel in Belgium.〔(Vrije Universiteit Brussel page for Kenny de Meirleir )〕 He is best known for his work on the chronic fatigue syndrome (also known as ME/CFS), including the book ''Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: A Biological Approach'' (2002) which he co-edited with Patrick Englebienne. ==Education and career== De Meirleir graduated in medicine from The Free University of Brussels in 1977.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Reach us )〕 He researches chronic fatigue syndrome and has created two tests: * a breath test〔(Breath test to test for bacteria overgrowth )〕 to diagnose overgrowth of bacteria in the gut. * a urine test〔(Press conference presenting the Neurotoxic Metabolite Test )〕 to detect high levels of hydrogen sulfide. The test is related to the diagnosis and treatment of CFS/ME. Especially the hydrogen sulfide test is very controversial, but neither test has received independent validation. He treats ME-patients both at his clinic in Belgium, Himmunitas〔(Himmunitas web page )〕 and in different cities around Europe. There is a wiki web site that describes his approach.〔(ME/CFS wiki, the de Meirleir treatment approach )〕 The same site also gathers evidential support for many of his and others methods.〔(The ME/CFS diagnose and treatment wiki )〕 Kenny de Meirleir is among the authors of over 80 published scientific articles,〔(Published scientific articles by Kenny de Meirleir )〕 most of them related to CFS/ME. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kenny de Meirleir」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
