I have two caveats to that. Firstly this sounds like a denial that Covid19 was the result of some deliberate genetic engineering. That might...
They probably put the low confidence in to cover themselves but this seems to me the only sensible explanation.
it is understandable. My point is that it is a red rag to the bull in charge of the poor patient and a distraction. We want research into...
I think once you get to options like tube feeding, which are what are being denied, the decision on placing a tube has to involve a physician. I...
trouble is you cannot do any research on people without asking them if it is alright to do it. So if the intention was to publish data on...
It would have been better if we were told exactly what tasks PWME were 'worse' on rather than pre-interpreting them in psychological terms. But...
There are 1,117 papers on PubMed on this DGBI diagnosis (disorders of gut brain interaction). Most of it is about microbiota affecting the brain....
I have not delved into that. They are being propagated by British gastroenterologists under the auspices of their professional body.
Reading the BSG literature it seems that things go much further than ignorance and social attitudes. A case is being made for specific withdrawal...
Eating difficulties sounds a reasonable way to cover it.
This is clearly an important element. However, the literature from the British Society for Gastroenterology suggests a deliberate disincentive to...
I think that is too general. It could include not being able to get to the shops - and for some probably does. We need an agreed description of...
I probably cannot give much more detail of any reliability. The hypothalamus is where temperature is regulated and where the central nausea centre...
Those are the defined groups. My understanding is that many PWME may have OI for neither reason. OI is not necessarily due to haemodynamic...
I think it should be 0.15 per 1000 per year. Assuming people only get ME once that would give about 1% lifetime rate which I think fits with about...
I can see the problem but I think it may be important not to be squeamish about this. Lives depend on it. I can think of various psychiatric...
Although ME does get compared with MS they have nothing in common in terms of mechanism as far as we know. MS produces swallowing problems by...
Good points @Simon M. Feeling terrible when trying to move with flu is attributed to cytokines like TNF and Interferon sensitising nerves. The...
Thanks that worked fine. So the story highlights this antagonism between nutrition units and 'ME specialists and family'. Why, why, why, cannot...
Unfortunately, I cannot get into the Times. It may be because I have used their free trial before.
