Why is EBM important?
" Up-to-date knowledge and Clinical _
performance can deteriorate with time
There is a statistically and clinically significant negative
correlation between a physician’s knowledge of up to date
care and the years that have elapsed since graduation from
medical school.
Traditional continuing medical education
programs have not been shown to improve
clinical performance
Systematic reviews of the relevant randomized trials have
shown that traditional, instructional CME fails to modify
clinical performance and is ineffective in improving the healtt
outcomes of patients.

Complementary/Alternative
0 ۹۹ and alternative medicine is a group
of diverse medical and health care systems,
practices, and products that are not presently
considered to be part of conventional medicine.
While some scientific evidence exists regarding some
CAM therapies, for most there are key questions that
are yet to be answered through well-designed
scientific studies--such as:
_ Are these therapies safe?
_ Do these therapies work for the diseases or medical
conditions for which they are used?

Are Complimentary and Alternative
Medicine Interchangeable Terms?
= Complementary medicine is used together with
conventional medicine. Example: Using
aromatherapy to help lessen a patient's discomfort
following surgery.
Alternative medicine is used in place of
conventional medicine. Example: When Suzanne
Somers rejected chemotherapy in favor of a drug
called Iscador (uses extracts of Mistletoe) to treat
her breast cancer.

cancer patients try unconventional
remedies and about 40 percent take
vitamin or dietary supplements
None has turned out to be a cure, although some
show promise for easing symptoms. Touch therapies,
mind-body approaches and acupuncture may reduce
stress and relieve pain, nausea, dry mouth and
possibly hot flashes, and are recommended by many
top cancer experts. A recent study found that ginger
capsules eased nausea if started days before
chemotherapy.
One quarter of supplements tested by an independent
company over the last decade have had some sort of
problem. Some contained contaminants. Others had
contents that did not match label claims. Some had
ingredients that exceeded safe limits. Some contained
real drugs masquerading as natural supplements.

$2.5 billion spent, no alternative cures found
Big, government-funded studies show most work no better than
راتت
The Associated Press
updated 11:15 a.m. CT, Wed., June 10, 2009
BETHESDA, Md. - Ten years ago the government set out to test
herbal and other alternative health remedies to find the ones
that work. After spending $2.5 billion, the disappointing answer
seems to be that almost none of them do.
Echinacea for colds. Ginkgo biloba for memory. Glucosamine
and chondroitin for arthritis. Black cohosh for menopausal hot
flashes. Saw palmetto for prostate problems. Shark cartilage for
cancer. All proved no better than dummy pills in big studies
funded by the National Center for Complementary and
Alternative Medicine. The lone exception: ginger capsules may
help chemotherapy nausea.
As for therapies, acupuncture has been shown to help certain
conditions, and yoga, massage, meditation and other relaxation
methods may relieve symptoms like pain, anxiety and fatigue.

Alternative medicine systems: Built upon complete
systems of theory and practice. Examples:
homeopathic medicine, naturopathic medicine,
traditional Chinese medicine, Ayurveda.
Mind-body interventions: Uses a variety of
techniques designed to enhance the mind's capacity
to affect bodily function and symptoms. Some
techniques that were considered CAM in the past
have become mainstream (patient support groups
and cognitive-behavioral therapy). Other mind-body
techniques are still considered CAM, including
meditation, prayer, mental healing, and therapies
that use creative outlets such as art, music, or

‘Am J Clin Hypn. 2005 Oct-2006 Jan;48(2-3):191-8.
Binge eating frequently is related to emotional stress and mood
problems. In this report, we describe a 16-year-old boy who utilized
automatic word processing (AWP) and self-hypnosis techniques in
treatment of his binge eating, and associated anxiety, insomnia,
migraine headaches, nausea, and stomachaches. He was able to
reduce his anxiety by gaining an understanding that it originated as
a result of fear of failure. He developed a new cognitive strategy
through AWP, after which his binge eating resolved and his other
symptoms improved with the aid of self-hypnosis. Thus, AWP may
have helped achieve resolution of his binge eating by uncovering

All measures were based on self-reporting, and past weight was .45
retrospectively ascertained. METHODS: Multiple regression analyses were
used to examined covariate-adjusted associations between yoga practice
and weight change from age 45 to recruitment, and polychotomous
logistic regression was used to examine associations of yoga practice

BACKGROUND: Extracts of Hypericum perforatum (St John's
wort) are widely used to treat depression. Evidence for its
efficacy has been criticised on methodological grounds. AIMS: To
update evidence from randomised trials regarding the

placebo or a standard antidepressant in adults with depressive
disorders.
RESULTS: Larger placebo-controlled trials restricted to patients
with major depression showed only minor effects over placebo,
while older and smaller trials not restricted to patients with
major depression showed marked effects. Compared with
standard antidepressants Hypericum extracts had similar
effects. CONCLUSIONS: Current evidence regarding Hypericum
extracts is inconsistent and confusina. In patients who meet

Levels of evidence
* Level I: obtained from at least one
properly controlled randomized trial,
considered the gold standard of evidence.
* Level Il-1:derived from controlled trials
without randomization.
~ Level Il-2: well-designed cohort or case-
control studies.
~ Level Il-3: includes studies with external
control groups or ecological studies.
_ Level Ill evidence is derived from reports
of expert committees, not because itis |
weaker than levels | or Il, but because it is
often difficult to ascertain the scientific
origin of the committee opinion.
