The idea that it might take that long is conceivable. I just cannot at the moment conceive of any mechanism that is likely to apply. One of the...
Interesting point. There is still a query as to why pathology subtle enough not to be visible in terms of physical signs or standard tests would...
That would be very peculiar. If the treatment was some form of removal of clotting factors or clots then you would expect to see improvement...
I don't think any of these studies is going to give a useful answer because of ascertainment biases. To be of any use you really need a...
A treatment that has been going for 1,700 years and still has no reliable evidence. Mmm. (Except perhaps for a disease due to modern antibiotics...
It seems a bit like concluding that pills, on average, are useful for rheumatoid arthritis. It would be nice to know which pill there was...
I have a new therapy. 1. Browse the Guardian online for two minutes to see what a shit world is going on around us. 2. Settle in to S4ME to see...

Yes, but as Peter Barry pointed out at the Round Table, none of this was material since these studies were included. The evidence was further...
In this particular case I agree. But there is a spectrum. Another quote I remember from an advisory board where the phase 3 rituximab data were...
That is true but more and more I see that what has happened in ME maybe should be happening on a much wider scale in areas where the problem is...
Yes, again I agree this misses the point. Being a scientist is just being someone who is interested in solving a problem and in thinking clearly....
Nor I. Some members of online communities pushed this angle but it was not what made the difference to NICE and not what dominated the discussion...
I can access it via UCL. Unfortunately the paper seems to be an extended snowstorm of poor evidence (which is what to expect from this journal by...
