More reports from the Great Flu Pandemic of 1918-19...

Physicians treating patients in the same city - as reported by Dr. H. H. Crum of Ithaca, New York:

“I had three hundred cases with one death. One good homeopathic doctor had two hundred and seventy-five cases and no deaths [0.17% mortality for the combined outcome from these two homeopathic physicians]. I (Dr. Crum) am the health officer for the city of Ithaca and had all cases reported to me. In October and November 1918, twenty-four hundred cases of influenza were reported. Seventy-five died [3% mortality for the combined homeopathic and allopathic outcomes].

Of the twenty-four hundred cases, between 900 and 1,000 were Cornell students, eight hundred of them belonging to the army. They were students of military tactics and all of them were cared for by (allopathic) army doctors. They were hospital cases. The dormitories were turned into hospitals. The treatment was entirely allopathic. Students of the army class were healthy but, even so, forty-five of the seventy-five deaths occurred among those nine hundred students [5% mortality].

Private patients fared much better. In going over the records of deaths, I found that I had but one death while the old school man next to me, who has patients of the same class as mine, had fifteen deaths among the same number of cases. Think of it! Two hundred and ninety-four cases with fifteen deaths! [5% mortality] … There are other homeopaths in Ithaca and we feel that we have a right to be proud of losing so few patients.”

At the homeopathy research conference, "Groundbreaking Science: Homeopathy and the Future of Global Health," at UConn Health on October 20-22, Dr. Gary Smyth MD, will open the event with his presentation on "Homeopathy and Global Health."

This is an introductory, high-level overview of the scope and role of Homeopathy within the context of Global Health. Used by an estimated 600 million people across 80 countries, the Homeopathic approach transcends national and international boundaries and is one of the most popular systems of medicine in the world.

Healthcare systems globally are facing many similar challenges, including antimicrobial resistance, polypharmacy, polymorbidity, aging populations and rising healthcare costs. Findings from a range of key studies will be briefly highlighted, showing the benefits of integrating Homeopathy within healthcare.

In addition, Homeopathy has a role to play across different species, whether humans, animals, or plants, and various studies will be briefly highlighted as examples. Furthermore, at the level of planetary health, Homeopathy represents one of the most sustainable, environmentally friendly, and low-carbon approaches to healthcare.

The scientific evidence base for Homeopathy is growing and cannot be ignored, whether in terms of laboratory, pre-clinical or clinical research. Such is the weight of evidence, a leading Swedish researcher has remarked: ‘To conclude that Homeopathy lacks clinical effect, more than 90% of the available clinical trials had to be disregarded. Alternatively, flawed statistical methods had to be applied.’1

Great news!

New homeopathy research published...

Efficacy of homeopathic treatment: Systematic review of meta-analyses of randomized placebo-controlled homeopathy trials for any indication.

Their findings?
"The quality of evidence for positive effects of homeopathy beyond placebo (high/moderate/low/very low) was high for individualized homeopathy and moderate for all homeopathy and non-individualized homeopathy. There was no support for the alternative hypothesis of no outcome difference between homeopathy and placebo."

From the Homeopathy Research Institute...

A recent double-blind randomized clinical trial, conducted by researchers at a homeopathic hospital in Kolkata, India, has shown the beneficial effects of individualized homeopathic medicines compared to placebo in patients with hyperuricemia.

Hyperuricemia is diagnosed when patients show elevated levels of uric acid in their blood. Uric acid is normally excreted by the kidneys, but when this begins to fail, the risk of uric crystals forming in the body increases, which can lead to gout and kidney stones.

Sixty patients received either individualized homeopathic medicines or placebo for 3 months, with regular assessments. Biochemical analysis showed homeopathy successfully reducing uric acid levels in the blood throughout the course of treatment, and patient-centered outcome measures showed significant improvements in quality of life and well-being overall.

Thoughts from Andre Saine on evidence demonstrating the efficacy of homeopathy...

"Some of the most compelling evidence for the effectiveness of homeopathy is found in its extensive records in times of epidemics. In 2003, I began reviewing the literature on this subject, and I have so far uncovered over 7,000 references. of which the first 2,000 have been incorporated into a comprehensive text that is now over two thousand pages.

All the epidemics, in which homeopathy has been involved since 1797, have been included in this extensive review of the literature.

The main finding of this research is that results obtained by homeopathy during epidemics reveal a very important and clear constancy, which is a very low mortality rate. This constancy remains, regardless of the physician, time, place or type of epidemical disease, including diseases carrying a very high mortality rate, such as cholera, smallpox, diphtheria, typhoid fever, yellow fever, and pneumonia."

Important information for those who care about homeopathy.

Because of the economic, philosophical and scientific threat from the paradigm and practice of homeopathy, the vitriol and antagonism still exists. It is enlightening to expose the disinformation.
