In a press release, a Nature editorial board member said
In a press release, a Nature editorial board member said the study did not prove it to be a valid argument for a link between homeopathy and neuropathic pain, and that the article is "not supported by peer-reviewed medical literature."
The editor’s note at the bottom of the Nature article, "We found no evidence of any direct neuropathic pain reduction or relief from homeopathys efficacy. The study was conducted in a controlled way, and had a large sample size. The authors are not aware of any research that supports homeopathy as a treatment or as a treatment for neuropathic pain."
The editorial board also noted that the study had failed to detect a correlation between homeopathy and neuropathic pain.
The editorial board noted that the study was "of limited validity," but added that homeopathic remedies can relieve pain, including the use of ibuprofen and other herbs. "The article's results support evidence from the scientific evidence. The homeopathy evidence is consistent with the efficacy of homeopathic remedies that are high in antiinflammatory and nitric oxide. However, the study is not supported by peer-reviewed medical literature. It is difficult to assess the effectiveness of homeopathic treatments in treating neuropathic pain, and it is not clear if effective treatments are more effective than alternative techniques."
The editorial board went on to say that the study "is not supported by scientific evidence. The research supports evidence from the literature that homeopathy may reduce pain in rats‖s spinal cord and in other parts of the brain. The study was designed, conducted and conducted using controlled experiments. This is not a scientific study. It is not an attempt to 'prove' homeopathy."
The editorial board members also noted that the paper "has a very high failure rate," and noted a recent article by Stephen J. Kallman, MD, MPH, who was a clinical professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia.
In a press statement, Kallman said the paper "demonstrates the need for more research to substantiate the validity of our findings."
However, he said studies that appear to be flawed "are routinely discredited."
The editorial board's decision to include a link between homeopathy and neuropathic pain was "incredibly significant," he said.
In an email responding to questions, an editor at a respected scientific journal, Peter B. Miller, said researchers were "confident in this study" and that the
