Yes it's less terrible than the original, but it still suffers other flaws, such as no one has ever bothered to ask patients whether they think it...
I'm not surprised - those "experts" are selected for their support of the status quo, not for their ability and allegiance to listen to those who...
Yes, that does seem absurd!
I think the whole hypothesis is based around the "predictive coding" not working as it should. But I note that a failure of predictive coding,...
Well, it is not as if regularly finding contrary evidence in his studies has ever led Wyller to drop his theory about "sustained arousal" either...
"could" The problem is if the viral load is too low for detection. These kinds of methods usually lack sensitivity (which was my conclusion when...
Was this flagged in your watchlist for citing this paper? Brown, B., Huszar, K., & Chapman, R. (2017). ‘Betwixt and between’; liminality in...
I suspect it was the Workwell video that was misleading. Maximal exertion may be predominantly not-aerobic for 30 seconds, but unless you are an...
I hope they are well compensated, because...
You, like the authors are also forming a non sequitur conclusion. Heart rate variability is a non-specific measurement and there is no reason to...
So there is ME, CFS, ME/CFS, ME & CFS, so we're up to four different communities so far! ;)
Another study that shows how easily questionnaire answering behaviour can be influenced...
This is not exactly true. There is always a balance, regardless of time. On a physiological level, the balance depends on the pattern of motor...
Pregnant mice with CFS? How do we know, did we ask the mice? :facepalm:
This is a key point that many people need to realise - these researchers believe that PEM is the "bust" of boom-bust! They don't seem to...
I was vaccinated against mumps and still got mumps. Pertussis (whooping cough) seems to lead to a mild infection even in those who have been...
I think this point is overblown. Most vaccines are not "sterile" immunisations - they do not completely prevent infection, yet we are able to...
"traditional review"? I guess they mean narrative-review...
Page 21, (assessment of risk of bias in the systematic review) Strangely, these selection/participation biases were ignored when it came to...
Of course the same could be true for ME/CFS and PVS too. Despite all the lumping/splitting arguments, the fact is that these are umbrella diagnoses.
Separate names with a comma.
