Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
So far there has been no consensus on the criteria which confirm the validity of scientific contributions in conventional medicine (CM) and complementary/ alternative medicine (CAM). An interdisciplinary group of experts from various disciplines within each of the areas of medicine held six well-documented sessions in an effort to reach a consensus. The group agreed that the methods to confirm the validity of clinical trials are identical in CM and CAM. There are differences in research strategies and there may also be differences in interpreting the results, depending on the concept of medicine. |
