It interests me that these presentations are in June 2015. White and Crawley will already have been aware by then that the criticism of their work...
The advice against testing for pathogens and immune abnormalities has nothing to do with BPS people or 'mental health care'. The infectious...
That I entirely understand and you might even say that is the whole point of the forum until something actually turns up. But doctors get a lot...
My reading is that somebody in the system is admitting failure. That may not change anything but someone has broken ranks. I also think that...
I think we know that - about 7 billion! (Not counting vulcans and clingons)
The problem is that individualised medicine can only kick in after you have a result on a whole population - a standard controlled trial. Once you...
None of those are known to help ME/CFS as far as I know. 'Leading ME/CFS doctors' does not necessarily equate to doctors who know what they are...

I have not read the paper beyond the abstract but is there any sign of a denominator here? What was the size of population from which this group...
I have only looked at this blog and video briefly. The woman in the video looks to be having a grand mal epileptic fit. I am not sure how that...

In a sense 'created in the lab' is exactly right. It seems that a stray mouse retrovirus got into lab cell cultures and underwent a change in its...
This is exactly right. Trials need controls with identical belief commitment in both therapist and patient. I have pondered this before thirty...
It is interesting the way that abusive emails and FOI requests are run together as if they had any similarity. Abusive emails are harassment. FOI...
Maybe it has changed its name but I must have read several thousand immunology papers over the years and never come across it. I doubt it is as...
I will still be in France next week. I do not see a great point in asking Dr Chalder questions. I prefer to arrive at answers myself on the basis...
One of the things that I have been doing as part of due diligence to provide context for evaluation of evidence in trials of therapist-delivered...
Thanks. It isn't clear that NICE actually changed anything on the wheelchair one but I have not gone back and re-read the final version.
I was taking that into account. The people I did not mention are quite varied in their views I understand. I have confidence that a good number...
As I said, the outcome is not certain.
Separate names with a comma.
