I've just read Coyne's latest blog where he posts the full review. A pity he didn't name and shame the author, though he gives some identifying details. Anyone care to reveal the name?
It's truly amazing in the level of bile and insults poured on the authors, questioning their professional standing (Wiltshire) and whether they really have CFS (patient authors).
It's the most unprofessional, incoherent, diatriabe imaginable. Unbelievable.
It doesn't actually look at any of the specifics in the paper it's supposed to be reviewing, just pours out thousands of words of vile insults on the authors.
If that's what peer review has descended to, heaven help us all.
I'm amazed the BMJ didn't send it back as unacceptable.
