    BBC: Chronic fatigue trial results 'not robust', new study says

    Because there is no bridge here they can build that leads them to safety. Any concession they make leads inevitably to further exposure of their scam. They have made it abundantly clear that they are going down with the good ship PACE. Seems a fitting way to end their careers. He certainly did.

    BACME Meeting 14-15 March

    Children cheating on the actometer. I thought I couldn't think less of her, but there she goes and proves me wrong. Again.

    A general thread on the PACE trial!

    That 2011 program on PACE by Swan is a contemptible puff piece. Swan either didn't have a clue about the problems with PACE, or simply refused to address them and ask some genuinely hard questions of Horton and Sharpe. (I have not listened to the Harvey one, don't think my blood pressure would...

    Monica Greco (draft for 2017 paper) Pragmatics of explanation : creative accountability and ‘medically unexplained symptoms’

    ''In this reconfigured discursive space, the problem of explanation is recast not in terms of the need for a representational, objective truth on the basis of which treatment of one kind or another should follow, but rather in terms of a pragmatic wager whose truth lies in the quality of its...

    Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Myalgic Encephalitis: It's Mitochondria, Not Hypochondria - by Sarah Myhill

    Of course, fruit in excess can cause problems, like anything. But I know of no reason why ME patients shouldn't eat some fruit, and every reason to do so.

    David Tuller - Trial By Error: The Dutch Review; My Trip; Bristol's Silence

    Correct. We are currently barely managing to live in today. I wish that was a joke. Chalder's behaviour at the original PACE media conference, and the complicit silence of her fellow PACE and BPS cultists over her remarks, is way past recklessness and incompetence, and well into sustained...

    SBS Australia documentary on ME

    Haven't applied for the NDIS, and not intending to given the failure rate of applicants, the less than adequate deals they seem to be getting, and how stressful the process if proving. Not to mention that ME/CFS seem to be getting a particularly raw deal, entirely due to the policy advice from...

    I say, I say, I say... How do you tell if a psychiatrist is sane? That's the joke. There is no punch line.

    (Oxford,UK) Recruiting: A study looking into energy status & MRS in CFS

    @Stuart The extraordinarily disproportionate suppression of and violence against ME/CFS and 'MUS' patients is difficult to explain by any motive that is both rational and humane.

    Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Myalgic Encephalitis: It's Mitochondria, Not Hypochondria - by Sarah Myhill

    "They feed themselves on convenience food which needs minimal preparation, such as... ...fruit,..." WTF is wrong with fruit? Especially whole, unprocessed fruit? I would have thought it was an ideal convenience food.

    Trial By Error: A Letter to BMJ Open

    Lofty noble intentions and rules are utterly meaningless if they are not enforced. Few things will create general cynicism and despair and disengagement more effectively than that situation.

    United Kingdom: ME Research Collaborative (MERC) [was CMRC] news

    I expect Wessely in particular to be able to come out of this looking okay. He has managed to portray himself as both the victim and hero of the story so far, despite being neither, and being lavishly rewarded for it all. Just goes to show the power of political patronage, sophistry, and sheer...

    MUS: "Medicine has a sexism problem" by Maya Dusenbery

    Speaking as a middle-aged male with terminal Male Pattern Baldness, I hereby donate in perpetuity all of my portion of any Male Pattern Baldness research funds to biomedical ME research. But seriously, get over it, men. If you are going bald, do it gracefully. Learn to love a Number 4, and be...

    Esther Crawley

    "non-operative treatment... ...of acute uncomplicated appendicitis in children.'" If Crawley's track record is any guide, then Bristol is going to be facing lawsuits for avoidable peritonitis, and worse.
