This is interesting, but I wonder if it is just an artefact of being a pilot study with recruitment biases, or whether it is a non-specific marker of fatigue.
Specific metals likely give you hives. Nickel is a common culprit. Or brass (copper/zinc alloy).
That said, my Garmin (hand me down) heart rate monitor does not use metal on the chest strap.
Yes.
To clarify my position: Animals can be useful for primary research (not that I like it), but "Animal models" of disease are often too far from the human diseases that the results don't translate. A lot of the animal models of autoimmune disease are like this. I mean genetically engineering...
This is the crux.
Unless it affects you personally, very few people care about these sorts of problems.
I wonder if there is some sort of guilt-relief (maybe that could be worded better), eg we celebrate people like this so we don't have to care and do the hard work ourselves?
Excluding women from trials or not testing different dosages (where relevant) in women vs men are certainly valid problems. Historically there have been such biases even if this has changed/is changing now (according to the claims made by Jonathan).
But who really cares about lack of females in...
There is a big problem when medical systems (funding, teaching etc) do not consider human nature as central to their practise.
A system that expects doctors to provide perfect advice and patients to always follow that advice is pure fantasy.
There is a researcher here who I have spoken to who has studied both (and hasn't found anything interesting in common). They are not the same thing of course, but commonalities might be interesting.
Didn't this group disprove the "sustained arousal" hypothesis with several of their studies including a drug trial. Why are they still talking about it?
