I've also found a statistical analysis plan (see attachment) and previous versions of their paper and the peer-review history (haven't read any of...
The supplementary material includes a treatment manual. It explains that the treatment is based on the "sustained arousal–model of CFS/ME." The...
Yes, there seem to be quite a lot of problems with the way the results are reported here. The authors write "that the study indicates that the...
