NIH P2P states that the Oxford Criteria are flawed, HARMFUL and should be retired, meaning that the PACE Trial should be RETRACTED

"38 The Oxford criteria (published in the Journal of the Royal 39 Society of Medicine in February 1991) are flawed and include people with other conditions, 40 confounding the ability to interpret the science." "378 Specifically, continuing to use the Oxford definition may impair progress and cause 379 harm. Thus, for needed progress to occur we recommend (1) that the Oxford definition be 380 retired"

Research / trials like the PACE trial which used the Oxford Criteria should therefore be retired together with the Oxford Criteria. Meaning that the PACE Trial should therefore be RETRACTED !!!
