Placebo studies and their effects
The use of placebo studies and their effects are on the rise. That means safer, more productive case studies as well as trials.
Background
As the medical background has changed for placebo drugs, so has the definition. Ultimately, the false effects of the substance are believed to be true by one's expectations.[1] . The complex process of the placebo studies method is growing at a steady rate in the field of mental illness. The process demands neurobiological mechanisms containing neurotransmitters, to rapidly propel creating the patients desired effect.[2] . The clinical placebo trials are found to be a safer alternative to other means of testing. Alongside major depressive disorder (MDD), these placebo experiments have been noted in studies of migraines, irritable bowl syndrome, and even Parkinson's disease.[3] Forms of the placebo drug include inert tablets, vehicle infusions, and sham surgery.[4]
Double-blind
A double-blind placebo is called so when neither the researcher nor the patients know who was given which form of treatment.[5] This is the most used form of the placebo methods. It differs from a single placebo in that the researchers actually know what patients are given which form of therapy.
Controlled Studies
Although the double-blind placebo method is ghe most common, controlled placebo expierements require a different understanding.
Initial clinical experiments
A study supported partly by a grant from the National Alliance for Research in Schizophrenia and Depression (NARSAD), tested the omega 3 fatty acid intake in patients who suffered from Bipolar and other mental disorders.[6] The study found that with over 30 patients tested, the patients that were higher in the fatty acids responded at a higher level to the placebo medication given.
