Split from here. While posting related papers, I'm afraid I just saw this Moss-Morris review was recently given a prize place on wikipedia's CFS entry: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28712416

Can positivity cure any disease? http://anilvanderzee.com/can-positivity-cure-any-disease/

Nater has been one of the most ridiculous CFS quacks imo. He's claimed doubled blind trials show CBT is effective (the site is currently down, but I think this link should take you to that claim when it's back on-line: https://listserv.nodak.edu/cgi-bin/wa.exe?A2=ind1205d&L=co-cure&F&S&P=12748)...

You may have heard of it? At the other place, some of us wrote a word or two about it. I thought it might be good to have a thread for PACE chats, or for new people to ask questions, that didn't necessarily relate to important new papers, or anything that warranted a new thread. I could post...

As we've got a new forum, now when I come across an old annoying thing I thought I might post them up for newcomers' pleasure. There's been a lot of discussion recently of how treatments like CBT can encourage patients to fill in questionnaires more positively, even if more objective measures...

I can be bad at finding stuff, but I was just looking through the HRA website and found reference to a few old CFS studies that I've not see published results for. I'm posting them here, along with a few others that were interesting to me, in case it would be of interest to anyone else... or...

Personally I don't know the researchers but it's been suggested to me that at least one has previously been firmly in the BPS camp, the fact that it is published in the Journal of Psychosomatic Research is a red flag as well. But, until proven otherwise, I'm putting it in the Biomedical research...
