There is an interesting passage on how she helped the poor PACE chaps to counter the suggestion that PACE and XMRV were equally bad. The most...
I got the e-book in two ticks for £8.49. That certainly is the title for the ME chapter. I will write a review right now.
I am wondering if she has picked up on any of my militant remarks? I have been thinking about doing a Division of Medicine Grand Round at UCL on...
I am not sure pareidolia has come into it much since the supposed connections were 'discovered' by this or that physician about 20 years ago. The...
I think they are confusing two quite different usages of subjective. There are subjective symptoms - only knowable directly by a subject. And...
I also think we have to be aware of just how much support groups are themselves contributing to this problem. The material from Ehlers Danlos...
You seem to be missing the point though. How do these patients come to have these strings of diagnoses? How do EDS and POTS and autoimmune come...
Stephen Holgate may have played the politics in a way that has worked out well for PWME. But, nope, to be taken in by the BPS crowd is not...
And I don't think there is any evidence for that either. The only way these diagnoses are linked all together - EDS, POTS, autoimmunity, autism,...
That looks to me more like mounting evidence of poor quality research. There are figures in those papers that simply do not add up as far as I can...
The review brings together some useful background clinical and epidemiological information. The section on pathogenesis is pedestrian and I think...
If nerve cells have got nadgered by viruses there ought at least to be a few NK and T cells around. And if they are chucking out RNA related to...
1. Take n people who have been told they have FND and n people who have not 2. Note that 'FND' is shorthand for YBAIYDIEIYSII (you're barmy and...
It is another peculiar journalistic piece from BMJ. The author sounds as if they are gritting their teeth and being almost even-handed about...
I cannot see any biomarker here. They report some correlations within groups but say nothing about differences between groups in the abstract.
Don't let a lack of understanding of basic physiology lead to harm for the people with #LongCovid, #MECFSand other chronic conditions that are...
Which looks just as bogus as the deconditioning theory.
Yes, but do we have any reason to think they are a good thing. As far as I can see unless you understand the reason for the hypocapnia this is as...
And that is my worry. People not familiar with physiology will happily follow these treatments. The principle remains that unless you actually...
What evidence do we have for that? We don't know what triggers any individual case. I am not sure what you mean by that. I am talking about a...
Separate names with a comma.
