One thing still perplexes me. The crux of you “trashing” the NHMRC report is on the basis of lack of homeopathy knowledge on the Committee. Yet Pr Brooks founded ACCMER at UofQ and Pr Tiralongo teaches CM at Griffith. How are they not eminently qualified to research homeopathy?

Coupled with the otherwise overwhelming evidence against homeopathy, I'd say it's fair to conclude that a reasonable judgement is that individualized homeopathy is as ineffective as any other kind

I'd also question quite a few elements of the study - just one point, pooling odds ratios for mostly continuous data is not a good idea. Much more reasonably to use a weighted mean difference where possible, especially as most outcome data (i.e. pain level) is continuous

And, curiously,
@EdzardErnst can demonstrate that Mathie exluded Ernst’s (negative) study which would have been the only A rated study. -
But did not meet other critera, and which mathie, very graciously, included in a second analysis, which showed still greater than placebo effects, after Ernst's protestations on the matter https://www.britishhomeopathic.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/BHA-16-Jan-2015.pdf …
