New today... a short teaser from Tuller on next weeks blog: http://www.virology.ws/2017/12/27/trial-by-error-a-sneak-preview-of-next-weeks-post/
To me, it looks like Fluks is posting some stuff that is too odd to try to explain.
I'd be amazed if the training course was discussing the problems with it. Sounds bad to me.
When Fluks came up in another thread here I did a google, and found some very odd stuff from him, eg:...
I've never known what some of these things mean. My sleep doesn't leaving me feeling recovered and bounding with energy, but it's much more...
Thanks Indigophoton. So it sounds like Ron just doesn't think that they're ready to publish something yet. There were some bits about criticism...
Oh... I thought the plan was that they'd been putting info on methods up on their website, along with their results. I really haven't been...
There are also problems with the systems around publishing in journals, and I can see advantages to just releasing methods and results as they...
LOL - that would be super tenuous! Hopefully we'll get more from them on the record. I expect that they'll just try to be utterly evasive in the...
The various biopsychosocial models floating around often seem so vaguely defined that it can be hard to say they have clear contradictions!
LOL.
Tuller reported Crawley having some direct involvement in the assessment of participants anyway:...
I think that some of the criticism here is too strong, especially when we haven't seen what from the researchers led to this headline. It's good...
It's hard to say from that, but it looks like it could have implications for your request for anonymised data. The trouble is, it makes no sense....
That's pretty annoying. How are they claiming that research project was a 'service evaluation'? There was no service to evaluate outside of the...
I feel like @Adrian is onto something with that point about power calculations and the change from a feasibility trial to a full trial, but I...
http://www.virology.ws/2017/12/23/trial-by-error-bristols-complaint-to-berkeley/ Christmas Eve for me... can't think of a better way to spend it...
I'd have hope they'd have been willing to make that adjustment without needing specific guidelines on it. I'm not aware of any specific...
Seems doubtful that there will be results strong enough to justify the headline claiming that they have a test for CFS. Given all the problems...
These researchers have done other poor work in the past. Not sure I really fancy reading this one.
