Re: CIHR internal memos
wasn't it sad to read the e-mails, and see that the CIHR was more concerned with their image in the press, and the coordination of their "message" with the MS Society--than they were concerned with learning anything scientific. It looks like the e-mails from a PR firm, not a group charged with leading the way in medical research. So tragic. Anne Kingston is an incredible investigative journalist. Brava to her for putting this together--

I heard sunlight was the best disinfectant. I don't think they meant dish-washing liquid.PointsNorth wrote:Light has a nice, sanitizing affect.
In spite of it's cleanliness I doubt this issue will pass muster in many doctors' offices. My new GP has no magazines because they pass germs, but with all that sunlight, maybe he'll make an exception.

Re: CIHR internal memos
I don't know if I agree with Beaudet, but phase I/II is kind of redundant. It will only re-prove what we already know. What's $11M or 18 months between friends?Anne Kingston wrote:Marc Stecker, a person with MS in New York City who blogs on the much-read WheelchairKamikaze.com, puts it: “The marketing of CCSVI seems to have far outdistanced the science.” CCSVI advocates say the phase I/II trial, which will cost at least $1 million and take 18 months, is a waste of time and money. Eight safety trials, assessing over 1,300 procedures, show no serious complications. Beaudet himself calls venoplasty a “low-risk” procedure: “The biggest risk is re-stenosis.”

Re: CIHR internal memos
I'm still gagging over this quote:
"Groetzinger praised the process: CCSVI research in Canada is moving at “lightning speed.”"
What planet is this person on? I'm speechless..

Re: CIHR internal memos
That's the line I wanted to quote into the FDA thread, if it's still around. 8 safety trials, 1300 procedures, no serious complications.Eight safety trials, assessing over 1,300 procedures, show no serious complications.
Re: CIHR internal memos
Wow! We is the states need to somehow expose the same because I'm sure the same back-room conversations are persisting here.
