    There is no need for "integrative explanatory approaches" for pain and fatigue. They are both signs of disease which sometimes happen together, sometimes separately.

    When we know so little about the biochemical and physiological basis of either there seems little point in central sensitisation being invoked when there is so little valid evidence it exists or that the "new explanatory and treatment approaches", CBT and exercise, have any effect.

    Strange that there aren't actually any 'results' in that abstract.
