No convincing evidence that homeopathy was superior to placebo, whereas for conventional medicine an important effect remained.

Matthias Egger

Conventional medicine interventions did better than placebo, whereas the homeopathy interventions basically did the same as placebo.

Matthias Egger

What one would have expected is that large studies of high quality would have shown an effect, which wasn't the case for homeopathy. This means that clinical effects of homeopathy are placebo effects.

Matthias Egger

What we saw was when you looked at these good, large studies, you did no longer see an effect for homeopathy, whereas you still saw an effect for conventional medicine.
