If my memory is correct: They mentioned that some of the controls went for tests because they were close contacts. They also excluded controls...
I don’t think anyone has argued that it is perfect. I believe I said it was the best, as in the best we’ve currently got. FUNCAP doesn’t ask...
Does it though? It asks you about the believed consequence of doing activity X during an average day the last month. Is that activity in itself...
UnHerd’s motto: I guess that fits well with the BPS paradigm shift narrative.
The abstract says that most of those are often fatal. It doesn’t really fit with how people can live with ME/CFS for decades.
Of course it does! Getting hit in the head is scary and you might become afraid of using your head again. Skilled practitioners like O’Sullivan...
Limitations (line breaks added): Our study should be interpreted in the context of its limitations. First, our study used self-reported symptoms...
Symptoms they asked about: Fever Runny nose Cough Sweats Headache Migrane Loss of power in muscles Joint pains Exhaustion while resting...
Regarding the post above, it seems to me like O’Sullivan is possibly arguing that the psychosomatic model claims that any symptom can be...
It really depends in what the impact is, both on a molecular basis and on a functional capacity basis. FUNCAP is the best option with regards to...
First of all, the reference is incorrect, it’s Tab. 4. More importantly, the trend was not statistically significant. Meaning that the people...
For LC: 61 out of 154 (40 %) with a CFQ score >=4 at 6 months were lost to follow up at 12 months. For controls: 17 out of 28 (61 %) of the...
21 % for the three most significant factors does not seem very impressive to me.
Oooh, I see now that you mentioned different types of damage. Thanks!
I skipped to the end, and it really showcases how little thought that goes into giving a psychosomatic explanation of anything. Ryan starts this...
N = 1, but I very recently saw an ophthalmologist and I’ve had severe light sensitivity for a while. I’m pretty certain that I did an OCT amongst...
This actually appears to be legit! @Andy possibly a source of funding for SequenceME and Chris’s team?
Thank you!! I should have been able to guess that, Facebook works the same way.
My post here:...
The tech they are going to use for SequenceME starts at ~$800 for whole genome sequencing and takes 72 hrs. Which is mindblowing when you...
