Very interesting bit: “Both in placebo‐controlled trials and in comparisons with standard antidepressants, trials from German‐speaking countries reported findings more favourable to hypericum.”
Trying to ping the user @lemmyreader@lemmy.ml Please tell me if that worked. :)
Worked :) And let’s ping in the original question poster as well @Amicchan@lemmy.ml just in case.
Hypericum (St. John’s Wort) pills can be bought in some regular shops here in Europe.
I have a tendency to use them in the Winter, but this time it didn’t go so well. I also have it as tea, maybe I’ll give that a try again when needed. Luckily I found other ways to feel better. Odd thing about the results for German speaking countries.
Trials from German-speaking countries reported more positive
findings than trials from other countries (RR = 1.78; 95%CI 1.42
to 2.25 vs.1.07; 95% CI 0.88 to 1.31, respectively; see comparison
1.5 and Figure 2).
What do these numbers mean exactly ? Was it a huge difference or not so much ?
I think it was this one: https://www.cochranelibrary.com/cdsr/doi/10.1002/14651858.CD000448.pub3/full

That’s odd. I wonder what the reason might be.
