It might do. But I have now given up offering to review grant applications, unless I think they are really important ME/CFS ones, because I cannot...
It would be up to the trialists to ensure safety. Giving patients that sort of information would not be valid 'informing' because they could not...
The basic problem is that if ethics committees are not applying ethical principles it is either because they do not understand or because they, or...
Do you mean guidelines for trial practice? I am doubtful that any attempt to target protocols and guidelines will have any impact. Protocols and...
I like this idea too. It might seem a bit technical but, as several members have said, once you get your head around the reasons they aren't too...
I agree. The whole thing is underwhelming. 'High profile' biomedical science seems increasingly just to be re-arranging the verbal deckchairs on...
There is a legal requirement to obtain informed consent and that requires adequate information. How you read that may be less clear but...
So this fits with JCI publishing so much garbage in recent years.
This looks very paternalistic (maternalistic?). I would want at least some indication of what the 'treatment' is and why it is thought to be...
No it wasn't in any way validated. They already knew what the gene defect was in humans and knocked it out in rats. So the model was not to...
For immunofluorescent experiments you really need to line up a set of test samples from patients and a set of control samples and stain them all...
Involvement of these genes does not make DecodeME any more or less likely to find something. DecodeME will only pick out genetic predispositions....
It is not just redundant but meaningless. The term used is visual perception. As for auditory perception. Or pain perception. Science is about...
I was not referring to the perception of fatigue and pain but the processes of fatigue and pain perception (or the processes via which fatigue and...
What they do with the lab rats is get them dead, take out the dorsal root ganglia and do immunofluorescence on tissue sections! One could...
I think it would be a good candidate.
I heard a talk today about people who cannot feel pain. Some of them have genetic defects in genes that do not produce proteins but produce Long...
We have very long threads discussing all of this @Sasha. You probably switched off for those. Cochrane was set up by a group of physicians who...
But it is a step forward to know the reality - and to be able tell everyone else about it.
They are 'Cochrane'. The Editor in Chief was appointed by them. Their mission is to encourage therapies manageable in primary care.
