The author critically reviews a randomised controlled trial by homeopathy for chronic headache and an observational follow-up study of the same patient cohort. The results showed no difference between homeopathy and placebo. The author believes that these results were a 'false negative' due to inadequate homeopathic treatment, particularly relating to the duration of symptoms and handling of homeopathic aggravations. Guidelines for future studies are proposed.
作者批判性地回顾了顺势疗法治疗慢性头痛的一项随机对照试验以及对同一患者队列的观察性随访研究。结果显示顺势疗法与安慰剂之间没有差异。作者认为，由于顺势疗法治疗不足，尤其是在症状持续时间和顺势疗法加重反应的处理方面，这些结果是“假阴性”。文中还提出了未来研究的指导方针。
