Guys, what is the latest on the Rutgers research? Are we going to get anything out of it or has the research been abandoned?  ???

Hi joelawerence,

Unfortunately, there will be no update about the Rutgers Study.  It has been aborted, and, very predictably considering how scientific research works, no data or info will be given by Rutgers about what have been done in the few months it has been running.   Even if we could have been handed the survey results, especially the written answers, it could have been impossible to make them available, because they were given on an anonymous basis, never to be published anywhere. It would have been completely against ethics to publish them, and Rutgers would not have given them anyway, knowing how important confidentiality is, and aware that they do not want any other legal problems related to this canceled study.

What is new is the new RFP on NORD website, so our 31,000$ grant will be awarded to another team, as soon as possible, so another POIS study will start.

Thanks Quantam for the update. Such a shame that it got cancelled.

Hope that someone new gets interested in doing this research.

They are always quoting the "50 cases in the world" sentence, so I guess they are using the same sources (though they are not really exact, there are surely more than 50 cases in the world!)

It is because those journalists do not know how to read scientific review articles.  In the recent review article on POIS published by the Departement of Urology of Tulane University ( http://www.smr.jsexmed.org/article/S2050-0521(17)30116-6/abstract ), which is at the source of this recent "POIS short-articles burst",  they clearly states that  " There are approximately 50 cases of POIS in the literature".  That means that there are 50 cases reported in the scientific literature ( most of them by Waldinger), and this does not mean at all that there are 50 cases in the world, only that 50 cases have been written about and reported, to date, by different doctors and researchers in different medical papers. 

Someone should post a message/comment after such false interpretations, to get the record straight, and state that we have over 500 members/cases on our forum alone, and that's only a fraction of the existing cases, and the real prevalence of this rare syndrome is not known yet because there is not enough research done about POIS.


There, I had to say that :)

Nice, you make a good job with "google alerts" :)
I imagine that an article in the famous Forbe magazine have a fantastic media power and it's a good thing for Pois communauty.

50 cases is a joke :)
I stopped my count at 450. I estimate 1000 to 1500 Pois-self declared in the world. Maybe much more.
