A quick question about your 2-day CPET @Hutan. Before the second CPET did you feel dreadful with PEM?
I think that is fair argument @Hutan. However, I think there are subtle differences between phobia desensitisation therapy and CBT. Phobia...
In this case the thought would be a necessary part of the causal chain, which is all that matters in the general argument. I think the main point...
I am deliberately being the devil's advocate here but I think it is important to do that because some people are I think making too simple an...

I don't know what scientific explanations are offered in the literature but I can confirm the existence of the sort of problem you describe. The...
I find it very hard to work out what these numbers mean. As it stands the abstract seems totally misleading. Whatever the numbers I don't think...
I think that is right - the idea that blinding removes the possibility of a placebo effect is just garble. Although if by 'placebo effect' we...
