Then why the f*** did they fund it? I think Peter Gladwell's involvement as co-lead researcher is significant. He's very senior in BACME, and it...
The idea I have gleaned from the initial announcement of this project and the comments Sarah Tyson made on this thread is that the toolkit is...
My immediate response to the reply from Neil Riley is probably better not posted, but there are a couple of points I will try to comment on...
It looks like they are only going for the most blatant fraud, not poor methodology. The thing that amazes me most about this article is the...
I haven't read the article yet, but this but from the abstract seemed all wrong: Surely if any single item is rated at major concern level they...
The first one says symptoms are things we perceive, the second says the perception is wrong.

I think this is a fairly good, though superficial and uncritical, summary of what is known and not known based on a few of the main US sources of...
I wonder how common your experience is. I don't think I've come across anyone else with that pattern.
My distinction between exertion intolerance and PEM is based on symptoms and functional capacity purely. I was not hypothesising about physiology....
I agree with you, but it also happens to people who are deconditioned at a much lower level of activity than in athletes because their level of...
Hi @JayJay, welcome to the forum. I understand that a forum intended to provide a space for comment on research, including critical comment on...
