I sure hope we'll see some of that "effort" one day. Because I'm not seeing it at all. Maybe it's happening in secret behind closed doors with nothing to show for it, but I highly doubt that. Put up or shut up because pretending that there's an effort is even more insulting with the complete...

Yuppie flu but also affects poor people because, "stress", I guess? Rich-world disease not seen in poor countries even though their lives are 100x more stressful and traumatic than yuppies. Super consistent generic mumbojumbo.

It's difficult to emphasize just how insane it is to hold medical progress for tens of millions of people based entirely on arguments that are fully limited to "it can, you can't prove it's wrong", even though the same argument is even more valid against this position and that argument is a...

Useless study as they've made it clear they intend for it to work by "trying" different modalities and clearly assume it should. Oh, crap it's even worse than that: The issue is not deconditioning. This is completely inappropriate as it's not the problem at all, there is simply no need to...

No one does yet :) But it already does useful things so that's worth it alone. AIs can't really be "pre-set" to do anything, they can only learn from data. The problem of flawed, or incomplete data, is the same as with humans. The benefit of AIs in the case of healthcare is for the sheer mass...

Mindless self-indulgence comes to mind. This is clearly a natural biological process that has nothing to do with their woo. It's actually telling that there is not a single thought put to this possibility, which explains why most recover with time. There is no need to introduce anything more...

This reads like "men writing about women in the 19th century". Absolute cringe.

3-12 weeks? And where does that come from? The script has changed but it was obviously a top-down instruction that most long haulers were told it couldn't last longer than 2 weeks in the first year, it was clearly a scripted response used as an arbitrary standard. Now we're going with beyond 12...

So they got different people to review the same thing that exists only as an impression because it has no useful definition and uses circular reasoning. Because we say so, even though they look the same, and we have huge expectation biases. But trust us, we're experts who use circular reasoning...

I really thought medicine would have left this nonsense many centuries ago. This is genuinely lacking in object permanence. It should not be explained to experts in a science-based profession that spontaneous things don't exist in this universe, everything has a cause, or several, and not...

Haven't read it.

Ah, so they're pretending that the medical associations did not announce that they rejected the guidelines and went ahead and did just that, have not budged on their pervasive refusal since. Despite everything Long Covid. Maximum chaos here and everything is fine and peachy and no one has to do...

I have little doubt that the people behind this trial think this is what they're doing. The state of things. It's quackery all the way down now.

Not as famous as some but science youtuber Physics Girl:

Excellent report on Long Covid, frankly one of the better ones so far. Which is saying very little. But it pretty much has zero red flags, though only limited reporting on the link with ME/CFS, it's pretty clear about it and generally presents the impacts very well. This studio tends to produce...

I am genuinely not sure which of this or NFTs is the most ridiculous thing happening right now. Or maybe this is more akin to BS jobs where millions of people are working to produce large number of useless tchotchkes simply because our economic systems demand people to do something, anything...

I guess they're not yet aware that nearly all patients know this before they see them. They are "teaching" things that patients came up with and healthcare systems rejected. To patients who know those things before they ever see them because they are shared in the patient community, still the...

This is making me wonder if it could be a factor in what astronauts experience in orbit. Because of how dangerous oxygen is, most spacecraft have lower air pressure with a higher oxygen mix to compensate. It's common to experience something like orthostatic issues, resembles dysautonomia even...

So the whole study is pretty much useless. As demonstrated by there being no difference in performance despite the patients having vastly lower performance. An entire study that could have been somewhat useful made useless by poor upstream choices. Brilliant. The lack of before and after...

If you're not measuring, you're not doing science. Ratings aren't measurements, measuring something has a specific meaning in science and ratings aren't it. Psychology almost exclusively does ratings, through questionnaires, which makes them of very limited scientific value. As a choice. A...
