Sorry - Missed this thread and started another. Will copy it over to here: Genetic findings in anorexia lead to questioning of link to...
Thanks for all your work Michiel.
Vincent Deary creeps me out whenever I come across something from him.
Maybe. But surely that would have shown up in their feasibility sutdy, prior to converting to a full trial. And if that was the case shouldn't...
Fair points, but some possible responses: Seems unlikely that all the individuals would say no - they already had ethics approval. If it was too...
I guess she could say she was only talking about the data she had (what does she have?!)? If she was referring to some limited data, rather than...

Just to point out that there's a note listing the changes here (that I'd previously missed):...
It looks like the original version of the article is still available on PMC, and I archived a copy here in case it's useful:...

Not interesting enough for a new thread, but Jessica Bavinton's Vitality 360 has a statement on the PACE controversy that says "we would like to...
What a nasty and bigoted view of the controversy from Helland. I wonder if she really believes that is the cause of the divide, or if she has...
A long time ago I read some pop-science neurology that I quite enjoyed, but I've since come to realise that a lot of what they said was rubbish....
Not just Cochrane, but a lot of people in the field of mental health research/rehabilitation have got away with low standards for a long time, and...
I forgot they even explicitly claimed that the primary outcome was reported in accordance with the protocol. Why were these people ever allowed to...
I missed that - from the Norwegian? I think I might have skimmed through these too quickly.
I only saw one reference to medically unexplained symptoms in there, saying that more research was needed. At the moment there is a problem with...
