As someone who is severe, probably way too severe to qualify for this study, I value this research for highlighting that just expecting many of the severe to improve significantly through pacing well alone is unrealistic. This should therefore drive attempts to look for medical not management solutions which are still heavily favoured eg in the UK. This shows good pacing isn't often that transformative and the FINE trial shows that rehabilitation isn't either - the 2 things UK have focused on 2 decades. The authors probably hoped to prove the opposite but nonetheless... I vaguely recall a bespoke BPS management study is the next thing on the cards for the severe over here in UK ...
