It doesn't matter what the actual number was. They were Reviewer 2 because that's the meme for that one inexplicably bad review....
This. I agree that the way this is currently interpreted is incorrect. I read a paper by Fukuda (not the actual diagnostic criteria, but a later...
Probably because a gyn can be a primary care doctor (and I guess OB because it tends to run with gyn. If you go to a urogynecologist that's now...
Apologies if I missed someone else responding to this in a long thread. I can understand why this is confusing because CDC partially updated...
But of course, because any concerns about the trial's conduct could never be correct. It was a thing of beauty. The definitive trail that got...

Sure, but it might be better to pick our emotional appeals and stories. We don't need to play into the ones set out by people who have no interest...
I don't really have tender points, either. Before that some doctors would diagnose "myofascial pain syndrome" if the tender point criteria wasn't...
I thought agencies were deleting things to save server space, but mainly things 2+ years old.
Not sure anyone fully does. Especially right now. But we do know that: The largest research funder in the US (also the largest funder...
