I am fairly sure that this is not true. I also think it is probably an inappropriate measure, since expressing a public view is not evidence of...
To be fair, in the review I thought that they had legitimately extracted what they thought was clinically most relevant for identifying children...
That one looks like a garbled misquote. It begins to look as if Crawley makes it up as she goes along.
This seems to be Crawley and Loades's own diagnostic checklist only loosely based on NICE guidelines.
The only reference to 'NICE criteria' in relation to ME/CFS that comes up for me on Google is a comment by the ME Association on the NICE review....
I wouldn't be surprised if Dr Crawley thought these were 'diagnostic criteria'. I appreciate that the handling of people, once the diagnosis has...
I don't see this as a big issue because, as I read it, this is not a set of diagnostic criteria and nobody would expect it to be a set of...
I think it's called getting old(er).
It would be great if we lived in an ideal world where such people would exist. But 'people able to assess evidence' could easily be the MRC...
I think the problem is a Catch22. If the panel is selected on the basis of the merit of the views it is, by definition, being gerrymandered by...
I am simply putting myself in the position of a Reuter's administrator. Sharpe says the campaign is based on a preference for biomedical rather...
I like the letter but it may come a little close to confirming Sharpe's claim that the campaign against PACE is driven by wanting biomedical...
Just a small point. The message means to refer to the UK ME Biobank, not the UK Biobank. The UK Biobank has been involved in one so far...
Are there actually any NICE diagnostic criteria? The paper talks of referral in line with guidelines but the guidelines do not give diagnostic...
Maybe note that this study is not about NICE, Oxford and Fukuda prevalence. It is about 'prevalence' of recovery. The title is confusing. Being...
30 years? You should be so lucky. When I was a lad we had to go down to the pond at dead of night and catch the will'o'the wisp methane before it...
It is difficult to get corporate, or any, funding until you have a good scientific lead. The key problem for ME is the absence of the sort of lead...
I note that the CFS patients were 'consecutive attenders at two specialist CFS units'. Assuming they were already on a treatment program it seems...
Disrespect for gastropods should not be tolerated on an equal rights forum like this.
I can see how it might spun but it is pretty hard to match with reality. There isn't physiological for not increasing activity rapidly because...
Separate names with a comma.
