My question would be why they want 100 patients. No useful efficacy data will come out of this without controls. So the only useful outcome I can...
So it seems, but an app joined mostly because people hear about it through social media and word of mouth as it says, and presumably want to tell...
I have not read the paper but the abstract suggests that this is the worst sort of sham science. 12% of patients did not even live in the USA. 88%...
I guess that the complaint is quite likely to have been from Flottorp, who has held a senior position within Cochrane. But the more senior the...
I would be very against that. The more that organisations like MEA put out unsubstantiated advice of that sort the more PWME will be branded as...

Since almost everyone has had Covid now I do not see how cases of small fibre neuropathy can be attributed to the Covid. They may just be cases of...
