The more I look at this the more it seems that the field is starting from a false presumption. In the old days EDS consisted of a group of...
Technically that is true but the improvement with CBT and GET is very unimpressive by any measure.
It saddens me to see this sort of report @Tilly. I have known about these small vessels in bone cortex since I trained in pathology in the 1980s....
Sorry, I provided the explanatory link in my talk but left it to be inferred in the slides. The Rituximab study shows that a good going placebo...
I am not sure I know what 'panic attacks' really are. Whenever I or a family member has had an attack of panic then we were preoccupied with what...
It starts with an assessment of mental state. That can often be worked in to initial conversation but tends to include asking questions testing...
It is generally agreed that it should be the other way around. If the reflexes are brisk then an additional positive Hoffman may indicate that the...
I would be against an isolated Hoffman. It is positive randomly in a small proportion of normal people. A Hoffman test should be done as part of a...
Not for measles mumps and rubella. In the 1950s virtually all children in the UK went through these illnesses. By 1990 almost none did. The...
Rubber ducks don't work. Too much Yang - pretty much quackery in fact.
Interesting list.
I doubt they were shocked. I suspect most of them were not at all surprised that trials of therapist delivered treatments were poorly constructed....
I wouldn't want to comment on the quality of the methodology but the ethics look fine to me. I would say it is rock solid.
I agree with @Woolie that there are lots of problems with drawing conclusions from this study. MS is defined as multiple episodes of neurological...
For me it was actually the other way around. A number of people associated with SMC and Sense about Science are people I have known for years....
Various people have asked me to post my Grad Round slides and I thought here would be as good a place as any.
Absolutely disagree. All the cases of CCI I dealt with were non-traumatic. Neurosurgeons are not usually the people to make the diagnosis. Usually...
I think that gets us in to our old friend expectation bias. I have a rough idea how many people on the forums have hypermobility and how many have...
I have been wondering about this for a while and am now trying to get some hard information. I have been asking around the UK research community....
Sorry, I had decided to leave this thread alone, but I see a specific request. All neurosurgeons in major centres can interpret the imaging. And...
