    Psychological and demographic factors associated with fatigue and social adjustment in young people with severe CFS/ME (2018) Chalder et al

    I might be wrong about this, but I think if you add tags in an edit, the tagged individuals aren't notified.

    METRIC (UK) Royal College of GPs' online course on ME/CFS

    'BMJ Best Practice: Chronic Fatigue Syndrome 2018' replaces 'NHS Choices Map of Medicine for CFS/ME (NHS Choices , October, 2011)' in the two guidelines sections - that seems to be the only updated material from a quick comparison.

    UK Parliamentary debate today - Thursday 24th January 2019

    I think he was referring to the Applied Knowledge Test Content Guide in which 'chronic fatigue syndrome' is listed on p.30 under heading 'neurological problems', subheading 'specific conditions'. https://www.rcgp.org.uk/training-exams/mrcgp-exams-overview/mrcgp-applied-knowledge-test-akt.aspx

    Open letter to the Trustees and Staff of Action for ME about the 'Toolkit for professionals'

    To be clear, 'Employment adviser' is a broad term which isn't specific to the employment advisors in IAPT programme - I'll flag that in my post. I don't imply that AfME are colluding on IAPT. But I don't think they should be feeding back SEE M.E. to the WHU when PwME are being referred under...

    Open letter to the Trustees and Staff of Action for ME about the 'Toolkit for professionals'

    It's a very good, clear letter. Action for ME previously fed SEE M.E project findings back to the joint Work and Health Unit as part of the WHU Expert Advisory Group. I'm not sure when the toolkit was published or whether this was provided to the WHU or WHU EAG. The WHU is jointly sponsored...

    PPS new name for MUS - Integrated Care for People with Persistent Physical Symptoms 02/10/2018

    For interest, I had a bit of a Google to see what early references I could find on the exact term, 'persistent physical symptoms'. I'm sure it can be traced back further, but the earliest references I've encountered so far online are found in a couple of late 90's publications co-authored by a...

    The IAPT Pathway for People with Long-term Physical Health Conditions and MUS. Full implementation guidance.

    In practice, I suspect long-term conditon patients who are 'frequent attenders' or are thought not to be managing their condition appropriately (but do not have anxiety or depression) are also likely to be referred.

    A European Research Agenda for Somatic Symptom Disorders, Bodily Distress Disorders, and Functional Disorders, 2018, van der Feltz-Cornelis et al

    This isn't quite right. Bodily distress syndrome is Fink's construct. Bodily distress disorder is the ICD-11 term and Somatic symptom disorder the construct from DSM-V. With respect to those terms, I don't think @Dx Revision Watch would mind me cropping this table from the attached PDF she has...
