Thanks for running the GEEs - and yes, I completely agree. I think the participant exclusion is flawed but not that relevant because the 65%...
I've not read this, but it might answer some of the questions being raised about EEfRT and how it was used Statistical analysis of effort...
“His research protocols focus on deeply phenotyping persons with disorders characterized by aversive symptoms that develop after exposures, such...
Thank you for doing this, the results are reassuring. Are you able to share the data?
Thank you, @Paddler for taking part in the study and for sharing your experience. What an ordeal. As ou say, their hypothesising has drawn...
Just seen this - great work. I think it is exactly what we would expect: EEfRT raw data analysis by @bobbler Minimal difference on 12% win...
In case this hasn't been shared already:
@Hutan posted from it: Further studies are needed to fully establish the validity and reliability of the new spectral indices for testing muscle...
This is very important for interpreting results. It's a tiny study. I don't think a meaningful comparison of HV vs patients is possible for a...
To be fair, it is designed to fatigue healthy people (that is the effort, the cost), but it is explicitly designed not to exhaust......
A couple of points I left off my 'final' post: @bobbler quoted Treadway saying that men were more likely than women to choose hard tasks. The HVs...
I think there might be 2 things going on here. 1. Effort preference, which means nothing and is a null test for the study population. 2. The...
My head is spinning and I'm going to bow out of the EFFrt discussion. Here's what I think I've learnt from others' helpful posts (and quotes from...
Does the EEfRT test mean anything when used on PwME vs healthy volunteers? Thanks to @bobbler for digging out so much useful information. I'm...
edited for clarity I think that at an online conference a couple of years ago, Workwell said they had data on about 400 subjects. I don’t...
+ 1 (thanks and printing for later)
But deconditioning is primarily about fitness and is measured by aerobic capacity, specifically by CPET - and the study demonstrated...
I'm not sure if there is a logical flaw. I believe they are saying is that effort preference is a brain-related issue, not a muscle-deconditioning...
Astonishing. Again: why does this not happen in every other limiting illness? And ME-like syndrome would be the norm if this were true. More...
Frustratingly, supplementary data table S7 gives group scores for PROMS, though only the aggregate Physical and Mental components from the SF36.:...
