===PACE Trial data release=== '''Chronic fatigue sufferers getting the wrong treatment—thanks to a falsified study'''<ref>{{citation |last = Hubbard | first = Bryan | date = 12 September 2016 | title = Chronic fatigue sufferers getting the wrong treatment—thanks to a falsified study|url= https://www.wddty.com/news/2016/09/chronic-fatigue-sufferers-getting-the-wrong-treatment-thanks-to-a-falsified-study.html|newspaper= What Doctors Don't Tell You|location= London|access-date= }}</ref> ''What Doctors Don't Tell You'' By: Bryan Hubbard. (Sep 12, 2016) "Sufferers of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) are not getting the proper treatment. The standard approach these days is cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)—known as the ‘talking therapy’, which implies the problem is mainly in the sufferer’s head—but this is based on a landmark study whose results were falsified, it has been revealed this week. The PACE study had concluded in 2011 that 61 percent of sufferers were getting well on CBT and exercise—but the numbers who really benefited had been inflated three-fold by researchers." '''The Implosion of a Breakthrough Study on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome'''<ref>{{citation |last = Romm|first = Cari | date = Sep 21, 2016 | title = The Implosion of a Breakthrough Study on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome|url= http://nymag.com/scienceofus/2016/09/a-big-chronic-fatigue-syndrome-study-has-been-discredited.html|newspaper= New York Magazine|location= |access-date= }}</ref> ''New York Magazine: Science of Us'' By: Cari Romm. (Sep 21, 2016) "And now, definitive proof has emerged that the latter camp was correct. In a column published in Stat today, writer Julie Rehmeyer — herself a CFS patient — explained how a supposed breakthrough blew up so spectacularly." '''Do you suffer from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome? There's some good news for you'''<ref>{{citation |last = Chainey|first = Naomi | date = August 30, 2016 | title = Do you suffer from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome? There's some good news for you|url= http://www.sbs.com.au/news/thefeed/article/2016/08/29/do-you-suffer-chronic-fatigue-syndrome-theres-some-good-news-you|newspaper= SBS|location= Sydney|access-date= }}</ref> ''SBS'' By: Naomi Chainey. (Aug 30, 2016) "The Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) has been ordered to release previously withheld data from a treatment trial under the UK Freedom of Information Act. Patients and advocates hope the ruling will lead to more rigorous critique of the trial’s controversial treatment recommendations." '''The results they really didn’t want you to see: key ME/CFS trial data released'''<ref>{{citation |last = Bower | first = Conrad | date = 2 October 2016 | title = The results they really didn’t want you to see: key ME/CFS trial data released | url = http://www.thecanary.co/2016/10/02/results-really-didnt-want-see-key-mecfs-trial-data-released/|newspaper= The Canary|location= Bristol, UK|access-date= }}</ref> ''The Canary'' By: Conrad Bower. (Oct 2, 2016) "Researchers at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL), have been ordered to release a full data from a controversial ME/CFS (myalgic encaphalomyelitis/ chronic fatigue syndrome) study known as the PACE trial. A preliminary analysis of the data reveals a shocking difference to the original published results, if the trials original data analysis method had been followed. The new analysis suggests that the therapies tested in the DWP funded trial are not nearly as effective as the published results claimed them to be." '''PACE Trial Data Released'''<ref>{{citation | last1 = Savage | first1 = Anna | last2 = Thompson | first2 = Poppy | date = 14 November 2016 | title = PACE Trial Data Released | url = http://theprintnews.co.uk/2016/11/pace-results-released/|newspaper= The Print (Queen Mary Students’ Union)|location= London|access-date= }}</ref> ''The Print'' (Newspaper of Queen Mary Students' Union) By: Anna Savage and Poppy Thompson. (Nov 14, 2016) "PACE was a five year trial conducted by researchers from Queen Mary University of London and King’s College London to investigate the effectiveness of treatments for ME and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS)." '''How Alem Matthees’ letter helped solve Chronic Fatigue Syndrome mystery'''<ref>{{citation | last1 = Jason | first1 = Jason | date = 8 January 2017 | title = How Alem Matthees' letter helped solve Chronic Fatigue Syndrome mystery|url= http://www.news.com.au/technology/science/human-body/how-alem-matthees-letter-helped-solve-chronic-fatigue-syndrome-mystery/news-story/eb566e1a0f6bcaadb362818a12c2e386 |newspaper= news.com.au |location= Australia|access-date= }}</ref> news.com.au By: Jason Murphy (January 8, 2017) "ON A hot dry Perth day in March 2014, Alem Matthees finished writing a letter.
