I worry that this fuels the idea that 'exercises are fine for those other 'functional' people as long as they aren't used for our patients'. There...
Chris Ponting might feel a bit miffed that these people got an answer with 18 patients instead of 18,000.
A dose of the bends maybe? He might even have been talking to Jessica Eccles https://x.com/BendyBrain .
One interesting possibility is that the causation is the other way around. Maybe in LC there is persistent endothelial activation because of some...
