A prediction model that cannot predict anything in individual cases is not a prediction model, it's epidemiological data. Not entirely useless,...
This is why the model for this is a completely generic "life events". It can be literally anything. It can be a big thing. It can be a thing that...
Ironic that he is pursuing the whole it's-literally-the-name model of inflammation of the brain and nervous system of ME, while completely...
This all suggests that things will continue to be bad, just slightly differently. So, another spin of the crank wheel. It's not as if there's any...
Well, thanks for muddying this up. Because of course everyone has the same baseline of those to begin with. :rolleyes: And for a mere chance of a...
PACE is just one plank of that abuse, the only framing in which saying this is accurate, but it sure is massive systemic abuse. Lying about...
A problem with that is thinking of pacing in terms of a technique, rather than very generic convalescence advice. Pacing is not a technique. It...
It's pretty common to do that, though. Maybe the Netherlands are different in that regard but there's definitely no shortage of people doing...
It says that the evidence is getting flimsier. With more time it will get even more flimsy. Eventually it will be fully debunked. Nothing will...
The lack of briefing is much more illuminating. This is his operational level of knowledge in his day job, not a bullet list made by a staffer to...
NKCV is the "Dutch Knowledge Center for Chronic Fatigue", an outpatient clinic of the Amsterdam UMC. It's either headed by, or involves, Hans...
It's like an entire discipline dedicated to inventing bizarre measurement systems, none of which actually measure anything because they are not...
P_H_S is Public Health Scotland. Not a single clue to be found over there. As detached from reality as the most out-of-touch aristocrats have...
4.5 years of studies. And we are still at the "Long Covid means Long Covid" phase. They did this roundabout process to end with the starting...
It can be safely assumed that everything LC at HHS will be scrapped next year. Zero chance of any more funding for research, unless the NIH decide...
From how the last few decades went, psychologists aren't that big of a problem. In this case, they're like the mechanics to the theoretical MDs...
So, pacing? A bunch of words to not say pacing while meaning pacing. Its real meaning and intent. Obviously you don't need 'brain retraining' to...
And this other one, too. I really enjoy Sabine's channel. She is a disgruntled academic who is exposing a lot of the problems in physics, her...
I am starting this thread in part because of this excellent video from Veritassium. It presents the problem of bias in interpretation of data, how...
I don't think we have an open discussion specifically on the problems of bias in academic research. I initially titled this "Bias in science", but...
Separate names with a comma.
