There have already been several studies looking at TGF-beta, so the question would be what could such a study achieve? I'm not sure how much...
I suppose a problem with the analogy/comparison would be that there's a handful of people that run marathons on an almost daily basis (at least...
I think one will have to wait for the paper. Pharmacompanies tend to analyse results till something positive comes up and spin it that way in...
I'm wouldn't be automatically sure of that, I don't think it follows directly. Here's my thinking: I haven't read the study but whether it is...
I'm pretty certain you will find BPS papers saying just that.
I think it's useful to point out that this is not a Long-Covid study. Which is probably also why the authors don't use these words. It's simply a...
I think we'll have to wait for what the paper actually says. I do know of a few LC patients who suffer from shortness of breath following exercise...
No. But as far as I can still they weren't really in other studies either. One study will have had marginally higher levels, but the next might...
Contrary to what the authors write I think one can actually say that "GPCR AAb Results Do Align with Previous Findings". How does the REAP assay...
Yes. But it's still quite a large setup, not sure if you'd do it if you're only interested in HRV data. There's quite a lot of talk on PEM, but...
That is really quite a large amount of people doing a CPET. I hope they managed to collect some other data as well.
That half of Covid patients are supposed to be LC patients probably suggests that they aren't considering a meaningful characterisation of LC, are...
It is of course random and it is so very much by the exact definition of the word, it is just that the randomness, so to speak, lives in a...
Would the title be: The psychology of people with unevidenced BPS beliefs, their lack of methodological rigor and their inability to see basic...
Apart from other dubious parts, I've spotted the following: The authors write "Kingstone et al. (2020) found that Long Covid patients felt that...
The medical expert of Long-Covid part is a bit interesting. It seems that "medical experts of Long-Covid", whatever that is supposed to mean, is...
Wow they really name each patient individually and quote them. Edit: As @Utsikt points out they are using pseudonyms.
Is the following correct? "Strong views put forward by this patient group around the management of their condition led NICE to delay and amend...
Yes, it seems too high for me as well. It's hard to believe that in 1/7 situations people would feel the need to fake data when in fact they can...
The one in 7 is a reference to fabrication and falsification of data, not papers that are dubious, full of errors, nonsensical or simply wrong....
