    2025: The 2019/24 Cochrane Larun review Exercise Therapy for CFS - including IAG, campaign, petition, comments and articles

    and the obvious conclusion to that being that when we die, we really did bring it upon ourselves through behaviour and chronic deconditioning, as the current 2024 (re-dated 2019 review) implies, because the therapy causes no harms at all, and that's why there'd be no need for a reporting...

    2025: The 2019/24 Cochrane Larun review Exercise Therapy for CFS - including IAG, campaign, petition, comments and articles

    Doesn't a chronology really show up how bad this has really been. Well done. One could also argue that Cochrane's actions in December 2024 IS a response and that, in and of itself, is reason to escalate. Therefore, giving them a further 3 weeks is a very reasonable attempt at reaching a...

    2025: The 2019/24 Cochrane Larun review Exercise Therapy for CFS - including IAG, campaign, petition, comments and articles

    Am I correct in thinking that the 2019 now 2024 review without the suggested editors note from the IAG only includes research on mild/moderate cases of CFS/ME? If so, then this republished review as it stands will be used to support activity management based on a deconditioning/behavioural...

    But, am I correct in understanding they can withdraw entire reviews, or exclude certain pieces of research from a review, on various grounds which relate to patient safety and they are required to write a protocol, and protocols are very specifically detailed in the DoH?

    Basic question from a non science background. Does Cochrane have an ethics committee, and are the systematic reviews considered 'research' on human subjects for the purposes of the Declaration of Helsinki (both the 2013 and 13 December 2024 versions?) I'm guessing it does because a protocol...
