But none of the researchers are arguing it is psychosomatic, just that psychological treatments may be beneficial to some and only because the...
According to Sharpe (from a tweet) PACE was fast-tracked because it was pre-registered. Nevermind they deviated from protocol and switched...
Same as AHRQ did in the US. They concluded rightfully that the Oxford criteria are crap. Removing studies with Oxford criteria made it clear the...
This is definitely part of the larger IAPT project (or whatever the next mutation chaired by Wessely is called). PACE is a pillar of this because...
This is an ethical problem, not legal. People are getting hurt so there is a legal element but we have no legal standing since harm is not...
And despite the flawed recommendations for CBT/GET, that it is a physiological disease is also the official NICE position. They just ignore it...
Regardless of which direction the guidelines go, is it possible to push forward the need for patients to report harm done as a result of whatever...

I think that's the idea, to have a test that can be deployed much more widely. It's portable and way cheaper than CPET but also doesn't provoke...
They're not funded by government. It's a private grant from a foundation so likely pretty small. I think the strategy is to build up to...
I sent it yesterday. No reply. Still trying to find the energy to finish my letter to her editors. I will include that I requested evidence for...
That's not unreasonable on certain levels but as long as BPS is 99% psychosocial it's not gonna lead to good outcomes, quite the opposite in fact....
I bet he'll argue that this is an argument to increase and accelerate those services, that it's not that it's not working, it's that it's not big...
I have seen that many times in the wild. Naming a syndrome, which by definition means a collection of symptoms, by a single symptom should be...
I think it's pretty obvious they did this to preempt the withdrawal, bullying Tovey into not taking a step that will be hard to reverse. They're...
Separate names with a comma.
