Listing the authors here, because I think it's important for anyone potentially visiting these services or seeing these people clinically that...
There is surely a Freudian slip in that abstract. I think they meant to say 'focussing on its potential to maintain reduced healthcare use',...

Yes, good words. To which I'd add that the review is also causing harm in the UK (which is what the Charity Commission might be most concerned...
@Sarah's letter (posted above) was brilliant. I wouldn't characterise the comments on this thread as whinging. I think the quality of that media...
Yep, this paper is not science, it's advertising. Advertising that ignores reality. There's probably a specific word for that.
But of course, a charity that helps everyone with ME/CFS, helps people of all ages. Just because another charity has a specific section for a...
It's better than it was, but it's still not as good as it should be. A number of members here put in quite a bit of effort to help AfME with this,...

The answer seems to be a gene that results in higher levels of GDF15. And, wow Circulating levels of GDF15 in patients with myalgic...
Maybe this reluctance to intervene on feeding issues is a broader problem than the UK and ME/CFS. And we already know the psychosomatic ideas run...
Well, if they want a community email, maybe we should give them one. Maybe we ask @dave30th to write a short letter, noting the harm that the...
You mean Table 2? PEM onset and recovery look very very similar to me. None of the differences are significant, according to the p values.
When the first three sentences of a paper manage to both get things completely wrong and contradict themselves, you know there's a good chance...
This statement is not supported by the results. The results in what are fairly small samples are amazingly similar, considering the questions...
From the introduction: [1] Pathak H, Mohan MC, Ravindran V. Chikungunya arthritis. Clin Med. 2019;19(5):381–5. That's a surprising thing to...
