- Accuracy
- accuracy
- Accurate
- accurate
- Accuracy is the "closeness of an observation to the true clinical state" (Sackett et al., 1986).[1]
- Antibody
- antibody
- Antibodies
- antibodies
- Immunoglobulin
- immunoglobulin
- Antibodies or immunoglobulin refers to any of a larger number of proteins produced by B cells to act against the antigen in an immune response. [2]
- Bias
- bias
- biased
- "Bias in research is "a systematic deviation of an observation from the true clinical state" (Sackett et al., 1986).[1]
- Bradycardia
- bradycardia
- slowness of the heartbeat, so that the pulse rate is less than 60 per minute in an adult.[3]
- CBT
- Cognitive behavioral therapy[citation needed]
- CF
- Chronic fatigue; this persistent and abnormal is a symptom not an illness. May be caused by depression, multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome or many other illnesses.[4]
- Cognitions
- cognitions
- Thoughts
- Fukuda criteria
- The most commonly used criteria for chronic fatigue syndrome, created by the CDC.[5]
- GET
- Graded Exercise Therapy, a gradual increase in exercise or activity, according to a pre-defined plan.[6]
- Iatrogenesis
- iatrogenesis
- Iatrogenic harm
- iatrogenic harm
- Iatrogenic
(iatrogenic
- Accidental harm caused by a doctor or by medical treatment or diagnostic procedures.[7]
- ME
- M.E.
- Myalgic encephalomyelitis or M.E. has different diagnostic criteria to chronic fatigue syndrome; neurological symptoms are required but fatigue is an optional symptom.[8] Many people with CFS do not have ME, although the World Health Organization and others use ME and CFS interchangeably.[9][10]
- ME/CFS
- Myalgic encephalomyelitis or chronic fatigue syndrome, often used when both illnesses are considered the same.
- RCT
- RCTs
- Randomized controlled trial
- randomized controlled trial
- Randomised controlled trial
- randomised controlled trial
- Randomized controlled trial. Participants are randomly assigned to two or more groups, with one group receiving the treatment and a control or comparison group receiving a different treatment or placebo. (A glossary of EBM terms, BMJ).
- NICE guidelines
- NICE
- NICE guidelines are clinical guidelines used in the UK.[11]
- Pharyngitis
- pharyngitis
- Pharyngitis is a sudden swelling of the pharnyx caused by an infection, eg Streptococcus. The hallmark symptom is a sore throat without cough.[12][13]
- Phase 3
- phase 3
- Last phase of clinical trials before a drug can be approved for public use.[14]
- POTS
- POTS
- SEID
- Systematic Exertion Intolerance Disease. A new term with new diagnostic criteria designed to replace chronic fatigue syndrome.[15]
- single nucleotide polymorphism
- SNP
- A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP, pronounced "snip") is a potential genetic mutation that occurs in a single spot in the human genome; a difference in a single DNA building block.[16][17] SNPs are often represented by an "rs" number, such as "rs53576".[18]
- Stress fracture
- stress fracture
- Stress fractures
- Stress fractures
-
- A tiny crack in a bone caused by repetitive forces such as running or by normal use of a bone that's weakened by a condition such as osteoporosis.[19]
- Tachycardia
- tachycardia
- An unusually rapid heart beat. Can be caused by exercise or illness. A symptom of POTS[20]
