    Response: Sharpe, Goldsmith and Chalder fail to restore confidence in the PACE trial findings

    So why make the changes, and then defend them so ferociously, if they are of no significance? So the changes do make a significant difference? Make up your minds. :rolleyes: The whole damn point of PACE was to test those previous results and clinical experience. The PACE authors themselves...

    The LP lunacy is something we can really bash them with in front of actual scientists.

    Frontiers review - Chronotropic incompetence an overlooked determinant of symptoms and activity limitation in ME/CFS (prov. 2019) Davenport et al

    Yeah, that was my first question about it. Those two plot lines are just a bit too neat and clean.

    Special Report - Online activists are silencing us, scientists say Reuters March 2019

    @Esther12 Nice work. :thumbup: Can't have been much fun though. :ill: It is a straight propaganda hit job. Fails every basic standard of journalism, and fair debate. The question, as you note, is why? I can't come up with an explanation that is comforting.

    Australia’s NHMRC ME/CFS Advisory Committee draft report released for public consultation

    I am flat out keeping up with a few threads here, and one or two links in them.

    USA: National Institutes of Health (NIH) intramural ME/CFS study

    Having ME does not make one immune to getting other diseases, and vice-versa.

    ME charities' response to the Reuters article

    He is seriously pushing his luck on defamation, IMHO. I am increasingly of the view that this is their exit strategy. Create as much smear and obfuscation as possible in one final splurge, in order to further delay accountability, then leg it.

    CORRESPONDENCE The PACE trial of treatments for chronic fatigue syndrome: a response to WILSHIRE et al (2019) Sharpe, Goldsmith & Chalder

    With good reason: PACE required both primary measures (SF-36 & CFQ) to be positive to get an overall positive result for the trial. But, as I understand it, if they calculate the SF-36 results properly it will actually deliver a null result on that measure, and hence a null result overall. If...

    Special Report - Online activists are silencing us, scientists say Reuters March 2019

    I think we are in that phase, where people with no history in the debate are paying more attention and coming to their own conclusions. It was never going to end any other way. It was only ever a question of how long it would take.

    I might have said something along those lines, once or thrice. Je ne regrette rien. :whistle:

    Special Report - Online activists are silencing us, scientists say Reuters March 2019

    It is quite clear that he is acting in very bad faith indeed. His efforts on Twitter, including selective blocking and non-answer 'answers', over the last year or so are nothing more than desperate trolling for bullshit examples of harassment/threats. But he got nothing serious he could use...
