China officinalis as Possible Homeopathic Prophylaxis for the Brazilian Dengue Epidemic.
Homeopathy
December 2024
Hahnemannian George Galvão Institute (IHGG), São Paulo, Brazil.
Dengue, a hyperendemic arbovirus thriving in tropical and sub-tropical climates globally, has seen a significant surge in Brazil over the past 5 years. Presently, the country faces an epidemic, posing a huge challenge to Public Health authorities due to the potentially lethal nature of severe infections. Based on Hahnemannian concepts and on the historically reported efficacy of homeopathy in fighting epidemics, this study aimed to provide supporting evidence for a homeopathic genus epidemicus approach to prevent severe forms of dengue.

Applying evidence-based veterinary medicine (EBVM) is considered a Day One competence for veterinary graduates. Furthermore, the increasing interest in the use of complementary and alternative (non-conventional) veterinary therapies (NCTs) must be grounded on EBVM principles. Few studies have mapped the teaching of EBVM and of NCTs and assessed their content.

Research Center, Paulista University, São Paulo, Brazil.
Introduction: Complementary and alternative veterinary medicine (CAVM) has been intensively used, and there is currently an increasing demand for a more rigorous approach regarding its clinical effectiveness.
Aims: The objectives of this overview were: first, to identify systematic reviews on homeopathy, acupuncture and phytotherapy in veterinary medicine and assess their methodological quality; and second, to map interventions and findings in the treatment or prophylaxis of any medical conditions in any animal species for which high-quality systematic reviews had identified reliable evidence of efficacy or effectiveness in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or controlled clinical trials (CCTs).
Method: The study was an overview of systematic reviews published in the years 2000 to 2022 inclusive.

Assessing the Feasibility of a Two-Cohort Design to Assess the Potential of Homeopathic Medicinal Products to Reduce Antimicrobial Resistance in Turkeys (The HOMAMR Project)-Study Protocol.

April 2024
Unit for Veterinary Public Health and Epidemiology, University of Veterinary Medicine, Vienna, Austria.
Background: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a serious public health concern worldwide. The European Union requires a reduction in the use of antibiotics by 50% by 2030, with separate regulations on organic production that give preference to homeopathy and phytotherapy in organic farms before the use of conventional medicines (including antibiotics). We have therefore designed a two-phased project whose overarching aim is to investigate the potential role of homeopathic medicinal products (HMPs) in combating AMR in turkeys (the HOMAMR project): a two-cohort feasibility study using turkey-farm data that have been collected and analyzed retrospectively, followed by a prospective two-cohort study in turkey farms that would examine the impact of HMPs on changing antibiotic use.
