Trial By Error: My Letter to Professor Chew-Graham About METRIC
28 JANUARY 2019
By David Tuller, DrPH

Earlier this evening, I sent the following e-mail to Carolyn Crew-Graham, a professor of general practice research at Keele University.

Professor Chew-Graham is a co-author of the FINE study, which tested a combined form of CBT and GET called “pragmatic rehabilitation” for home-bound patients. As reported in The BMJ, FINE produced null results for its two primary outcomes of fatigue and physical function.
