    Concerns about Cochrane

    The article in Ugeskrifted is well worth a read - do continue past the letter from the board. I'm baffled at this bit: (google again :) ) That's only 2.67 % (but do take my math at this point with a grain of salt... :-P ) of Cochrane members casting their vote...?? So a smallish group of...

    Concerns about Cochrane

    Ah, I've clearly misunderstood some of the comments - will edit my post, and thanks :) (foggy-headed and shouldn't be posting... :-P ) But then the situation will be truly absurd...? He's (probably) exluded from International Cochrane, but will continue to lead/be the chief of the Nordic...

    Concerns about Cochrane

    Edit: I'm mistaken about this - read on to @Kalliope s post :) ---- Because he's not expelled yet. He has a week for responding to the remaining central/main board. Seems like no-one really knows what will happen to the leadership of the Nordic group if the descision is final, it's not just...

    Netflix "Afflicted" - ME included

    It's available in Norway at least, but I think it's mostly in the US Afflicted has caused an uproar? In Norway, and maybe Europe in general, there isn't much talk about things like electricity sensitivity, lyme or mold. Or spending that much money om treatments, legit treatments or not. So...

    Netflix "Afflicted" - ME included

    It's a 'Netflix Original', so I assumed it was funded by Netflix?

    Concerns about Cochrane

    The video is uploaded in 2015, a year or two after his book "Deadly medicines and organised crime" came out - he was elected on the Cochrane governing board in 2017, it's not like his vews was a secret. My impression is this is probably mostly about doing his best to rock the Cochrane boat...

    Concerns about Cochrane

    That statement from the Cochrane board really makes me uneasy. The process isn't finnished, Goetche is still a member and has 7 days for a written respons. Then the board, any board, don't have any buisness with statements like: "This is about the behaviour of one individual." or commenting...

    Concerns about Cochrane

    While others are talking about setting up a new shop. Seems to be the Nordic and the Austria Cochrane groups that are revolting.

    Concerns about Cochrane

    Not everyone agrees this is a crisis for Cochrane, or more likely - trying to calm the waters?.

    Concerns about Cochrane

    So "The Annual General Meeting" (not sure what generalforsamling translates to?) for the whole of Cochrane is happening today? That, must be a, ehm, interesting..... meeting.

    Concerns about Cochrane

    Wasn't aware of this, so it's not just Gøtzsche/HVP-vaccines/the nordic Cochrane group.

    Bruce Levin to speak at Columbia: "How NOT To Conduct A Randomized Clinical Trial"

    "PECULIARITIES" :D Only skimming through - up to page 40, it's mostly summerizing the issues well known to most patients advocates. Recovery criteria, switching out-come measures etc. Page 41 starts with: "BIAS ISSUES" - if one has a low-reading ability day, it might be a good starting point...

    Is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy the Gold Standard for Psychotherapy?

    Not available. Could this be the same article? https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2654783 If so, they got two replys - both named "The Evidence for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy". https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2673536 That argument doesn't even make...

    Concerns about Cochrane

    Letter by Peter C Gøtzsche, posted 14.september at Nordic Cochrane. Not able to read the whole 3 pages of this letter now, but this is the first pharagraph. Seems to be lot of drama...

    Patentscope: Prevention and/or treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome

    Oh, that's damning. But not surprising, I'm sorry to say, REK's analysis matches my impression of the Bohen couple's process with these projects. One of the things they point to, is the argument Bohen uses for good faith. Because of ME and severe cognitve issues during the project she forgot...

    And they used Fukuda-criteria, so patients selection may not be representative.

    A Concurrent Cognitive Task Does Not Perturb Quiet Standing in Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, 2018, Stensdotter et al

    Randome quote: Muddled brain, tried to find anything about severity of patients? Not surprising, this test didn't give those results. Had they repeated the test a second day, I'm sure the result would be different. The partispants probably was rested and as well as they could showing up at...

    Patentscope: Prevention and/or treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome

    Not surprising, since for research you need etichs approval _before_ starting treatment in humans and collecting blood... Isn't she a former marine scientist? This surely should be known? Short description of the study/case study they applied approval for (the rest of text in norwegian). Both...
