CliniCrowd: Entrepreneurial treatment activism for undone science: mannitol and Parkinson’s disease

2 Replies

Good stories. Just letting people know that I have heard that the results of the Israel Mannitol trial will be published next month: In a small group of patient no difference from placebo was demonstrated over 36 weeks.

I'm not saying it does not work. Just what I heard about the trial results. I've never expected one thing by itself to work.
