For an individual person IgM values in this sort of situation probably mean nothing much. There was a hope that IgM versus IgG would indicate...
Of course not but that is all beside the point. I am talking about the tactics of solving the problem. And plugging weak evidence on the...
I think it would tell us a lot. Particularly if the detail of the phenomenon associated with ME was looked at. Tinnitus is not really 'not well...
I think this sort of approach should be looked at very critically. Tinnitus is common, period. I have it and so do lots of people I know. And so...
Copied post No it isn't. Lots of people with ME may have tinnitus but there is no evidence that tinnitus is caused by whatever causes ME. This...
No it isn't. Lots of people with ME may have tinnitus but there is no evidence that tinnitus is caused by whatever causes ME. This is exactly...
And it suggests it may not. I think this conclusion is unjustified. If we are trying to raise the level of evidence and discourage the...
New onset one-sided tinnitus should be investigated even if often no cause is found. It is unlikely to have anything to do with PVFS or ME. I...
In answer to the original poster, no, this is not reputable. It is straightforward misrepresentation of reality - i.e. pseudoscience. The...
If Mr Javid and Co are serious about shaking things up this looks like the place to start! It seems to date from just after the NICE announcement?
No, but I would be receptive to an invitation. I agree that a range of views would be useful. I worry that those who over-egg the biomedical...
I think it is a continuation of her only real interest - marketing the need for GP superheroes. She might do better working for RNLI.
Apheresis covers a lot of different things - it just means cleaning plasma of something by filtration or absorption. Carmen Scheibenbogen has...
Is that quite right, Andy? Or at least perhaps misleading. My understanding is that GWAS is called genome wide because the mutation sites looked...
There is a difference between contradicting current theory - which is the name of the game - and contradicting empirical findings replicated tens...
Isn't there something a bit surreal about suggesting that the whole of science is to be suppressed because of a very small group of nutter...
As I understand it, and I may be wrong, the GWAS looks for links to polymorphic sites along the chromosomes that should show correlations with...
I think the arguments being made are more nuanced than that to be honest @ems223. To be in DSM-5 I guess that a movement disorder has to be more...
Is that true? I am not up on the technology but I thought it worked on the basis of markers all along the genome that may not include every gene...
From what I can see on the net Kell is a retired basic scientist who has wandered into a clinical area that he may not have any practical...
