In a controlled randomized double-blind trial carried out by 47 physicians in private practice with totally 152 patients with sinusitis the therapeutic success of the following homeopathic drug preparations was investigated: Group A: combination of luffa operculata D4, kalium bicromicum D4 and cinnabaris D3. Group B: combination of kalium bicromicum D4 and cinnabaris D3. Group C: luffa operculata D4. Group D: placebo. Criteria for the therapeutic result were headache, blocked nasal breathing, trigeminal tenderness, reddening and swelling of nasal mucosa and postnasal secretion. There was no remarkable difference in the therapeutic success among the investigated homeopathic drug combinations nor between the active drugs and placebo. Averaged over all four groups 81% of the patients with acute sinusitis and 67% of the patients with chronic sinusitis recovered. In the literature comparable therapeutic results are reported for antibiotic therapy, decongestant nose drops and for the drainage of nasal cavities.
47位私人执业医生对152例鼻窦炎患者进行了一项对照随机双盲试验，研究了以下顺势疗法制剂的治疗效果：A组：丝瓜络D4、重铬酸钾D4和朱砂D3的组合；B组：重铬酸钾D4和朱砂D3的组合；C组：丝瓜络D4；D组：安慰剂。治疗结果的标准为头痛、鼻塞、三叉神经压痛、鼻黏膜发红肿胀和鼻后分泌物。在所研究的顺势疗法药物组合之间，以及活性药物与安慰剂之间，治疗效果均无显著差异。所有四组的平均情况是，81%的急性鼻窦炎患者和67%的慢性鼻窦炎患者康复。文献报道抗生素治疗、减充血滴鼻剂和鼻腔引流也有类似的治疗效果。
