Disease relevance of Homeopathy

 

High impact information on Homeopathy

 

Biological context of Homeopathy

  • This review will briefly introduce some of the most common alternative practices likely to be seen in Hawaii communities: Homeopathy, Herbs, Naturopathy, Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture, and Chiropractic and spinal manipulation, and a brief discussion of Dr. Eisenberg's recent position paper on advising patients about alternative practices [9].
  • OBJECTIVE: To assess homeopathic consultations in NHS general practice over a 12-month study period; to analyse the conditions treated homeopathically and assess the responses to homeopathy prescribed in a standard 10 min GP consultation [10].
 

Associations of Homeopathy with chemical compounds

  • Neither ascorbic acid nor homeopathy was effective [11].
  • SEARCH STRATEGY: The registry of randomised trials for the Cochrane Complementary Medicine Field was searched using the term "homeopathy" with "influenza", "respiratory tract", "infection", "cough", "virus" and "fever". The manufacturers of Oscillococcinum were contacted for information about other trials [12].
  • Of the completers, one received homeopathy, 2 placebo and 3 Fluoxetine [13].
  • The Organon of Medicine is the seminal text of Homeopathy. However, its grammar and structure make it obtuse and remote to both new students and veterans [14].
  • BBC TV Horizon programme on homeopathy [15].
 

Gene context of Homeopathy

  • The aim of this study was to obtain scientific evidence of the effectiveness of homeopathy in ADHD [16].
  • This article highlights medication concepts, including the cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors, opiate management of chronic pain, and neuropathic pain management; and it reviews some nontraditional approaches such as homeopathy and herbal remedies [17].
  • Homeopathy in cancer care: Part I--An introduction to "like curing like" [18].
  • The NHS GP clinic accounted for 47% of total referrals for homeopathy [19].
