This is only vaguely related, but this indicates that these results, particularly the 6mwt results for patients classed as 'recovered' following various treatments, could be interesting/challenge expectations:

Interestingly correlation with objective measures of physical activity improvement (e.g. walking & step tests) was only weak, highlighting how disability assessment is likely to be quite strongly coloured by factors like anxiety & depression

It also indicates how results are being shared at conferences that are not available to patients or doctors.
