“Finally, a goal of this book is to impress a single theme upon the reader: Everything is always more complicated than you think.”

“Placebo drugs may be active (such as antibiotics given for a viral infection) or inactive (such as a sugar pill). Placebos also may be sham surgeries (some of the most effective placebos!) or clinically unrelated procedures (such as sham acupuncture). In addition, the physician–patient relationship itself may even establish a placebo effect. The placebo effect can work even when patients know they’re receiving a placebo.”

“meta-analyses of the same data can come to different conclusions depending on their design and inclusion criteria, so bias among the designers of the meta-analysis is highly important but often overlooked.”
