We are pleased to announce the findings from Dr Robert Mathie’s latest clinical evidence update:
Total number of randomised controlled trials (RCTs):
2021: 255 RCTs of homeopathic treatments for 136 medical conditions
It is promising to see a slight increase in the volume of trials published per year, i.e. 14 RCTs in 2021, compared to 12 RCTs in 2020.
Double-blind placebo-controlled trials (DB-RCTs):
Considering only DB-RCTs in humans, published in peer reviewed journals (excluding prophylaxis and cross-over studies), the analysis found:
2020: 140 trials on 86 different medical conditions
2021: 148 trials on 88 different medical conditions
148 RCTs of homeopathy (end of 2021)
The 8 new DB-RCTs – 2 positive1,2 0 negative and 6 inconclusive3-8 trials – have resulted in a slight shift in the overall balance of evidence as follows:
Positive: ↓ 1%
Negative: ↓ 2%
Inconclusive: ↑ 2%
