That paper says that there are lots of genes potentially involved as well as KIT and as far as I know there is no reason to think 10-17% of the...
I am not sure that the reduction in fatigue tells us much. If a drug targets one disease characterised by fatigue it need not affect another...
Hi @rachel76, To me this is amazing only in that it is extraordinary that anyone should publish what is no more than pseudoscientific...
But what is traditional relevant rehabilitation? I was never taught that there was any evidence base for rehab after lung damage. I did a brief...
I agree. Counting symptoms is hopeless. I would have thought it more useful to go for something like newly being off work from time of Covid...

No paywall for me, and I don't think my UCL link would have kicked in, although it might. Touch of the old mene mene tekel upharsin: But the...

This post has been copied and discussion moved from Cochrane - Exercise therapy review - Hilda Bastian's Talkpage I don't know if people have...
It's a bit like the greengrocer saying that his strawberries are fine because only half of them are rotten. Or the car is safe because at least...
I am going to be busy today but will reply to Hilda in due course. My opening comment will probably be 'Of course they did, Hilda!' NICE and...
I guess that it is highly likely that the treatment will occur in the context of paying for consultations at least. The problem is that in this...
So it looks as if she is probably a fellow (senior trainee) aged about 30 who has recently joined Mayo or returned after Bateman Horne.
This isn't actually the case. In this sort of situation going straight to a double blind controlled trial would be reasonable. If this is just a...
Separate names with a comma.
