Basic question from a non science background. Does Cochrane have an ethics committee, and are the systematic reviews considered 'research' on human subjects for the purposes of the Declaration of Helsinki (both the 2013 and 13 December 2024 versions?) I'm guessing it does because a protocol...

Yes, and he together with the all the international signatories to the 'anomalies' opinion piece in July 2023 form a thread.

I see Kate Kelland in Reuters wrote this. Wasn't it her who did that interview with Sharpe in 2019 quoting David Tuller? This from the link There's your smoking gun. Merry Croft died 23 May 2017. Context and timing is crucial. And they've done it again now, especially during the ME/CFS...

Don't worry, I've now fully read Hilda Bastian's blog. I have what I needed. These advocates, to quote Hilda are really stupid or desperate, I can't work out which. Either way, neither is a defence to the unimaginable harm they have caused for decades.

Especially important because, unlike with medicine, there is no formal reporting system for harms from these type of therapies making the recipients of such therapies particularly vulnerable, as the UK Regulation 28 Prevention of Future Deaths report dated 7 October 2024 establishes. That...

Wait, what? This has already been withdrawn once. Can someone point me to the info on why, when etc?

Yes he did, and he received better from the other consultant. We all deserve better. However, and this is the only reason I would ever say this, I'm glad he didn't survive another five years otherwise he would have been referred to the fatigue clinic for cancer related fatigue and been...

THIS all day, every day! I had a brother and sister-in-law (siblings) of my late husband who had severe eczema as young children who both went on in later life to develop both types of MS, progressive and relapsing and remitting. Both were dead by 45 years old. My husband (their older...

Is this question on harms what prompted L Larun out of the shadows after 10 years? Timing is crucial. Why respond now especially after the abrupt re-dating of the existing review in December 2024? So, it's time to be reminded of an extract from the response from NICE by Barry et al...

This is a live learning programme which my GP can look at today? From the Overview 4. What is the prognosis of ME/CFS? What is the ‘right specialist intervention’? Where's the evidence for this improvement, PROMS? And it conflicts with this statement under 'how else can ME/CFS impact...

On that child's medical notes for life: potentially influencing every subsequent diagnosis and treatment (or lack of it), they ever receive. Without the knowledge of the parents or the child going into adulthood. I find this truly shocking, if I'm understanding that correctly.

And lastly, there’s this from 2017 The Body Map Theory | Mind the Body: An Exploration of Bodily Self-Awareness | Oxford Academic
