- The Continuum theory and Levels of Health theory suggest that an effective acute inflammatory response, indicated by high fever, signals actual improvements in chronic inflammatory conditions, such as atopic dermatitis (AD).
- Six cases of AD treated with classical homeopathy showed stable improvement for over a year, confirmed by diagnostic criteria and the SCORAD scale, and were evaluated to determine the effect of homeopathy.
- Notably, five patients experienced acute inflammatory issues as their chronic AD improved, supporting the idea that acute and chronic inflammation are interconnected; further research is needed to explore this at the tissue level.
