    Relationship btwn CFS, burnout, job satisfaction, social support & age among academics at a tertiary institution (2019) Coetzee et al

    Doesn't get much lazier than this. Nicoleen Coetzee, trying to think up an idea for a new paper, has a brilliant idea - "I know, I'll ask my colleagues to fill in a questionnaire or two, that way I won't even have to leave the building! If 5% of them respond, I can write something up and publish...

    Personality and fatal diseases: Revisiting a scientific scandal, 2019, Pelosi

    Maybe Coyne could encourage him by offering to apologize to PwME for protecting the bad science of Edward Shorter. They could hold hands and unburden their consciences together. That would be lovely.

    Personality and fatal diseases: Revisiting a scientific scandal, 2019, Pelosi

    This is what Wessely wants: (5 minute video in German about the Heidelberg psychosomatic clinic, in German): Pure BPS power-grab, talks about influencing the education of new doctors, integration with (all) other hospital departments (oncology etc), how psychosomatic medicine fills the gap...

    Personality and fatal diseases: Revisiting a scientific scandal, 2019, Pelosi

    https://www.dr-lechner.de/assets/Artikel/Autonome-Selbstbalance.pdf Here is an article from 2002 by a quack dentist in Munich, which cites RGM's "Autonomic Self Regulation" often, and introduces a machine to help you do it. Of interest to us is this: These are photographs of the Aura of the...

    Personality and fatal diseases: Revisiting a scientific scandal, 2019, Pelosi

    RGM is still plying his trade: From 1990 to 2006, Grossarth-Maticek was Director of the Institute for Preventive Medicine, Political, Economic and Health Psychology in Heidelberg. He then took over the management of the Heidelberg Center for Multidisciplinary Research (ZMF). Since 2007, he has...

    Hypothesis piece by Amy Proal, a microbiologist with ME/CFS

    By the way @Amy Proal, can you tell us a little more about the Autoimmunity Research Foundation? I notice on this paper: http://www.discoverymedicine.com/Amy-D-Proal/2014/05/22/inflammatory-disease-and-the-human-microbiome/ Two authors, Marshall and yourself, give their institution as the...

    Hypothesis piece by Amy Proal, a microbiologist with ME/CFS

    Thank you, I did. It looks like "Dr" Marshall (actually a Phd in electrical engineering and no medical training) has produced a complete pile of quackery. Here are a couple of many descriptions: http://www.cureality.com/blog/post/2008/03/31/the-marshall-protocol-and-other-fairy-tales.html...

    The deadly truth about a world built for men – from stab vests to car crashes

    My wife hung up our full-length mirror, with the result that when I look into it the top of my head is missing. I bang my head on the extractor fan when leaning over the cooker ... guess who told the people who installed it how high that should be? Every time I get into the shower I have to...

    Intimidation of PACE critics or critics of other Psychosocial research

    I've just watched that. In it she recommends Richard D Halls's analysis of Clarence Mitchell, which I've also just watched, along with some other stuff by Richard D Hall. Based on that, I would say that Richard D Hall is without doubt a complete nutter conspiracy theorist (secret space program...

    Letter from the 25% ME group to NICE re: CBT and GET, Feb 2019

    Same way the BPS crew do - if it works, it was delivered correctly. If it doesn't, it wasn't. At the moment everyone is delivering it incorrectly (Can't remember which BPS activist claimed that). The only alternative explanation as to why it causes so much harm to genuine ME sufferers is that...

    Mind, body and ME

    I imagine that when you leave the forum, I cease to exist too. We'd better make sure never to be absent from the forum at the same time, otherwise neither of us will exist to bring the other one back and we'll both be trapped in a state of non-existence for eternity. Which is our ultimate fate...

    Mind, body and ME

    @Wonko I've noticed that whenever I log out of the forum and turn off my computer, you cease to exist. I've always wondered - what's that like?
