It seems that Primary Pain arrives on the map with ICD-11. The blurb says. Chronic primary pain is a novel concept originating in the insight...
Indeed. Pretending to be a doctor rather than pretending to be a patient. I have not actually heard of 'Primary Pain' before. The next in a long...
The Guardian have lapped it up. https://www.theguardian.com/society/2020/aug/03/painkillers-such-as-aspirin-do-more-harm-than-good-for-chronic-pain
The whole thing lacks the necessary rigour. It seems that if 'evidence' is generally a bit positive they go with it, regardless of quality or...
It seems to be a conspiracy theory site with a major interest in anti-vax and also Nazi experimentation during the holocaust. (Not that the latter...
I would advise against taking that piece too seriously. It looks like a crackpot conspiracy theorist site - as much disinformation as Mr Trump...
I don't know what information is available but my general thought is that the more localised the infection is, as seems to be in Melbourne, the...
I think that must be right. Turnaround is easy at any stage, never too late - but lockdown has to be maximum. Soft lockdown is a disaster because...
I pity the adolescents subjected to this approach. As I have indicated elsewhere, I can see no reason why you need to exercise specifically after...
Perhaps tension should be contradiction? I find this sort of study useful in that it reveals the true colours of people like Mark Edwards and...
Many thanks for your very helpful feedback. Apologies if it seems as though we are proposing graded exercise for all; we mean to suggest a suite...
Simon and Chris Ponting refer to data by Canela-Xandri on BioRxiv. I could not track that down but Simon McGrath should know. I thought there was...
I have only had a quick look at the paper but it seems only to give us IgG and antibody levels for 9 days. This is completely meaningless from my...
Plasma is the only relevant compartment for antibodies so it is the same as for rituximab. They are not affecting B cells but the relevance of...
The point is that they might be. Resistance to infection is complicated and some people manage on low IgG levels but an 80-90% reduction puts...
Malmquist's Researchgate entry is interesting. He published in international journals from 1959 to 1987. Since then he has only published in...
An 80-90% decline in total IgG sounds seriously bad news to me. We used to worry if there was a 50% reduction with rituximab. Unless there is some...
Nothing to see here, again, it seems. At least it is clear that SW has been involved - perhaps as one of those whose names were not available to us.
Well, I may have been overoptimistic saying that the UK government would fall in line with sensible policy by July but this from the Guardian...
No kitchen implements but the usual imperial nakedness argument. There is a non-sequitur involved. 1. Exercise throughout life reduces mortality...
Separate names with a comma.
