Pain Reprocessing Therapy er etter mitt syn nok et eksempel på hvor lave krav vi stiller til evidensgrunnlaget for psykologiske behandlingsmetoder før de tas i bruk. Vi burde stille de samme evidenskravene til psykologiske behandlingsmetoder som til legemidler. www.forskning.no/hjerneforskn...

Da vi klaget inn et doktorgradsprosjekt for et år siden visste vi ikke at OUS over tid har tøyd regelverket så langt at de ikke lenger klarer å se forskjell på forskning og kvalitetssikring. Kanskje den nasjonale komiteen for etikk i medisin og helsefag kan hjelpe dem å se tydeligere?

Scientists find link between genes and ME/chronic fatigue syndrome
Large study suggests people’s genetics could ‘tip the balance’ on whether they would develop the illness Scientists have found the first robust evidence that people’s genes affect their chances of developing myalgic encephalomyelitis or chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), a mysterious and debilitating illness that has been neglected and dismissed for decades by many in the medical community. Early findings from the world’s largest study into the genetics of the condition pinpointed eight regions of the human genome that were substantially different in people with an ME/CFS diagnosis compared to those without the illness.
