I think that this was the sort of thing that would be very difficult to do in a way that was useful. I don't know enough about the details of...
Yeah - it could just be that they decided it was worthless, so might as well be withdrawn. I wonder if they were hoping that withdrawing that one...
Thanks for trying. Maybe they feel like they've just done a re-review, and don't want to go through it all again... but they're called UpToDate!
It's the obvious, easy response from them. It would have been a lot of work to make it difficult for them to respond like this, and a lot of care...
I think this could be one of those tabs I keep open for a long time, on the assumption I'll one day take the time to really understand all the...
Great. Now I'm reading an 'excellent' blog post on beta coefficients. I hate stats. Even when I think I've got myself to understand something, two...
Right, but the recovery results aren't used in the Cochrane review, so while the spin there is still another reason for concern about selective...
I guess that the normal range stuff is less directly relevant to Cochrane's review than the recovery claims. Larun was still meant to look at all...
I wonder if they've messed up by making this a bigger story than it would be. Also, I've not seen an outpouring of outrage from researchers about...
Looks like it, yeah: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/norma-o-flynn-72b2932b I wonder what opinions on CBT/GET she thinks should be viewed as COIs.
I thikn it's a response to the "respect patients" line she was replying to: [MEDIA] I think that she interpreted that line as meaning 'respect...
She's been like this throughout her career. UK doctors seem to love her for it. I'm amazed by her tweets. I'd be fascinated to be inside her...
I'm still thinking all this stuff through, but (not forgetting how terrible Cochrane has been for years) I think I am impressed they have been...
Don't think that this has been posted before - I just found it while looking for something else:...
If they've been working in CFS centres but have failed to speak out about the problems with things like PACE, the way patients were being smeared,...
Seems that they got 'uptodate' just the day before it was announced Cochrane are withdrawing their CFS exercise review. Time to start all over again?
Hopefully he's busy fighting off editors for all the major publications asking him to write on this! Yeah, I don't think it should never be...
I've started to get a frantic sense that caring about what's true is coming to be viewed as dysfunctional behaviour. The fact that the data...
Can you remember what views about CBT and GET you expressed? I'm interested in why your views were seen as a COI, but those who had been making...
Thanks for the info. Would you mind letting us know what it was that led to you being told that your stance on GET and CBT was a conflict of...
