Already out of date before it’s even launched. That strain of Omicron is superseded by others.
The most gullible? And even in those, the intervention didn’t work. I don’t understand how these people keep getting funded for this sort of work.
Another worthless trash study aiming to rediagnose patients with MUS and treat them with CBT which has already been shown not to work.
Yes. I’ve never seen an ‘expiration date’ set like this.
How convenient.
Agreed. It’s also telling that they deliberately chose not to do what most trials these days do which is to obtain written consent for data...
I just noticed this: “Bona-fide researchers” meaning all data requests from filthy plebs (ie patients) will be denied.
The paper claims that symptoms caused by surgery are psychiatric.
This idea was quite popular in the 1980s/1990s in the UK. There were some studies showing hyperventilation on exercise challenge or tilt table but...
This paper is pretty obscene to be honest. First you suffer medical malpractice, then you get told it’s all in your mind.
Sounds like incompetent anaesthesiologists trying to chalk up serious adverse events to FND.
What fresh hell is this?
It's unethical to continue to sell this test to patients considering the findings of the more recent study:
Usually these sorts of studies are done by young healthy trainees in psychology. My fibromyalgia pain is worse than what I experienced after...
That’s hilarious.
“Young and female? It’s FND. I don’t accept this referral.”
I don't think this study tells us anything useful. You can't do a GWAS study with ~400 participants.
Same here, back in 2016 or so. The effect was dramatic, from housebound to being able to walk reasonably comfortably for an hour. I also noticed...
This 2007 study from the Journal of Psychosomatic Research to my mind suggests that retrospective subjective symptom reporting in MUS is useless....
Separate names with a comma.
