Jeff said there were 17 imaging cases. Those are what need to be published. Until we see those published I would very much hope no further cases...
Maybe I should put this in this thread too: I just did a Pubmed search on Craniocervical instability and fatigue. The result was: No documents...
What is needed is adequate pre-publication validation of imaging analysis. NEJM would get that done adequately and if the findings are bona fide...
Hi Jeff, I don't think the traction test tells us anything useful I am afraid. I think both from scientific and personal points of view...
Dear @JenB and @Jeff_w, It is good to hear that you are both better. If there is a genuine link between CCI and ME symptoms then it is crucial...
I very much doubt there is any sort of hustings. People put their names forward and ballot papers are circulated to members - at least that is all...
I don't see any mechanism by which S4ME can later the outcome of the election - none of us will vote. So maybe the sensible thing is to lobby the...
I suspect it is the use of the procedure for cases that do not have symptoms indicated by the neuroanatomy or accepted clinical picture.
I would be interested to know who they are. Unfortunately, I think surgeons will collectively believe anything that gets them cases to operate on....
They can, but not at the level of the upper cord and brainstem. Neurology is specific. CCI is not controversial. It is standard neurology. I...
I am very happy to hear that Jen is better. As I have said before, there is no similarity between ME and the presentation of CCI or related...
I would say a week or so.
Various relevant people are aware of concern. Whether it would be productive to contact child protection authorities directly at this point I am...
Only that they have ME and we don't know why that impairs thinking. I don't think the scan show effort. I am not sure anybody knows what they show...
The methodology in terms of numbers studied is peculiar. It looks as if they did two different studies. The abstract gives no hard figures which...
I agree. There is no good reason to think that HPV caused a neuroimmune reaction. Her problems have to be assumed to have some other origin. But...
Sadly, I don't think their comments about effort and energy mean anything scientific. There is nothing about energy expenditure in the study as...
I agree, especially when it looks as if there is another set of guidelines under IAPT that puts ME/CFS under MUS and justifies the overall MUS...
Yes, but it showed the same in the normal controls as far as I can see.
I think am probably banned from that place.
