Talk:German acupuncture trials/Archive 3

616:::Thanks for bringing up this interesting debate. Reading that blog post, it says that "About a year ago the editors of Anesthesia & Analgesia solicited a written debate on whether or not acupuncture is effective or simply an elaborate placebo. Four experienced acupuncture researchers agreed to write the pro-acupuncture article, Wang, Harris, Lin and Gan. They asked David Colquhoun to write the con position, and David asked me to write it with him (which, of course, I enthusiastically agreed to do). The article is fortunately published in open access, and so I can reprint it here (full article is below). What I think David and I convincingly demonstrated is that, according to the usual standards of medicine, acupuncture does not work." So, if we are going to use the Novella article from this journal, then we can also use the Wang, Harris, Lin and Gan article? 2220:
health related. And all policies and guidelines about sourcing of course apply as well (ie, sources must not fail FRIND). And any claims about any underlying theories of acupuncture within the article, of course fall within FRINGE. But descriptions of the clinical protocol, and description of results, are all standard health-related content that are not FRINGE. I think this is pretty clear -- the trial design seems to have been carefully done to make it a good placebo-controlled RCT, and the results were decidedly negative for two indications, and borderline negative for two others - this was far from a rah-rah-acupuncture outcome. I would be interested to hear thoughts on this, based of course as much as possible on policies and guidelines (no big hand-wavy claims, please!!). Thanks.
1224:& refs therein. Dependence isn't a function of a journal's topic in the real world; it actually has to do with external relationships (e.g., a reviewer being the parent of an author). No important conflicts -- according to prevailing standards in academia -- are declared by its editorial board (most/all of whom practice acu, not surprising given the subject matter, and have additional qualifications as well). The journal appears to fulfill WP's other tests for sources, such as peer review and indexing; furthermore, studies published in it have been used by Cochrane and in other accepted MEDRS's, and MD's and PhD's publish in it (e.g. Ernst). "Dependence" seems to have been misinterpreted by editors unfamiliar with what it actually means. 1641:. (see right column of page 12 to left column of page 13). He seems to think that the trial design was a dog's breakfast because "They tried to address scientific and socio-political questions at the same time" and his subsequent discussion of results and reactions, is based on his judgement of which kind of question (scientific or socio-political) was being asked, and which question those reacting to the trial cared about. In my opinion (I am owning that this is my opinion) Birch's discussion, especially on page 13, is fringe-y and ditto his restatement of it in the penultimate sentence of the article. ( to borrow from SNL: really? including a placebo/sham is not 598:"Some trials also control for the variable of needle insertion, using placebo or simulated acupuncture in which opaque sheaths are used and a dull needle is pressed against the skin when the plunger is depressed, but there is no skin penetration. Alternatively, toothpicks have been used to simulate the sensation of acupuncture without going through the skin. Again, when this variable is isolated, it turns out that simulated acupuncture works as well as verum acupuncture. This is true of the largest and best trials of acupuncture for the most common uses, such as reducing back pain (Haake et al. 2007) and treating nausea (Enblom et al. 2011). 1597:!", which I understand has been happening. I see how this is very useful. The double-irony is that Mallexikon has been the main one wanting to include this source in the article, albeit for the narrowly stated purpose of giving the acu-proponents' view on the outcome, so that we cover the whole range of reactions. The triple irony is that other acu-skeptics here have wanted to exclude the source altogether for being fringe. The quadruple irony, is that as I discuss below in b), Birch is trying to use the "socio-political" angle to argue that acu should be 324:'Patients experienced not only reduced pain intensity, but also reported improvements in the disability that often results from back pain and therefore in their quality of life.'... Although the study was not designed to determine how acupuncture works, Endres said, its findings are in line with a theory that pain messages to the brain can be blocked by competing stimuli. Positive expectations the patients held about acupuncture — or negative expectations about conventional medicine — also could have led to a placebo effect and explain the findings, he said." 425:= policies and guidelines. jps you are absolutely right that RfCs are not binding, but in the process of building consensus (which in all AGF I believe we are all doing), the results of RfCs form milestones that should not be tossed aside without consideration - that is why I asked for solid reasons why we would move away from it. I reviewed the discussion above and didn't find any. btw jps I think the work you are doing evaluating sources is great, and can proceed even if this content is reinstated... thanks for doing it! 1935:). I said " Sources independent of the proponents do not draw attention to this paper." That is my text, somehow you convert that into a strawman that I think independent sources should exactly duplicate the pseudoscience sources. Read what I write, don't fill in the gaps with things I have not said. Find those independent sources. You also cherry picked the text about bigfoot that sutied you, without reading the wider context of that section: "the quote should only be included if it can be 601:"Therefore, if we define acupuncture as using needle insertion to stimulate acupuncture points, and the best scientific evidence shows that acupuncture points do not exist (it doesn’t matter where you stick the needles) and needle insertion has no effect (it doesn’t matter whether or not you stick the needles), then does acupuncture work? I think the only reasonable answer is no; there is no reality to acupuncture or the concepts upon which it is based." 31: 956:: I also think Birch's article is tendentious, however, to his defense, I think you misunderstood him... I don't find him calling for Chinese acupuncturists. He just compares the German requirements (regarding hours of study) for acupuncture-practicing physicians with the requirements in UK, NZ, Australia etc. (who seem to have higher requirements) and the WHO guidelines (which seem to be met by German requirements). -- 407:
it stands right now includes a lot of problematic sources that I'm still working through. If you are going to go ahead and add more content and (presumably) more sources, I'd like you to explain why they are good additions on the talkpage first. Some additional content may be good, but some of it may not be warranted. The differences between the two versions is too great to be able to tell in one fell swoop. Thanks.
1617:
about why reimbursement really happened. Above Malllexikon rejected the implicitly offered deal. I am not sure Mallexikon was aware there was a deal on the table. I am also not sure that horse-trading is the best way to get the most excellent content, but sausage gets made in many ways. I also am not sure that the deal can survive other editors' scrutiny, as the source itself is being contested altogether.
2151:
the He et al source. That's enough reason to include it as an pro-acu point of view. To demand that "I get you" an independent source drawing attention to this article is Kafkaesk: why should a reliable source waste time to discuss this fringe view? And to stay with the example above: do you really think that the Bigfoot Field Researchers Association's statement was mirrored in a reliable source?
1995:: The text in question (the allegation that GERAC's verum acupuncture performed worse than usual because of lack of training of the participating acupuncturists while the sham treatment performed better than placebo because it somehow constitutes a highly effective treatment) of course should, and would, be contextualized as an acu-proponent's POV. And yes, we might even have consensus here to 1153:@2ndQ: Sure, "points that are not discussed in independent sources should not be given any space in article", but the point here is assessment/criticism of GERAC. We have several independent sources discussing this point. The Birch source would only be used to show the specific assessment of the acu-proponents. I can't see how I would be selectively reading 2851:
don't understand why you didn't present these arguments when we were actually discussing this source - you were editing this article at the time . Again please drop the stick. This source is gone. This is exactly the kind of behavior that exasperated Mallexikon and Middle8 and led to you being brought to RFCU.
1150:@Jytdog: Thanks for flattering me, but I wouldn't call myself an expert in this field. And no, I don't know if Birch's criticism is mainstream in the field. Regarding point 2.) I don't know what you mean. I try to include an acu-proponent's view on GERAC here. That would naturally come from a fringe journal, no? 1645:? really??) I think that where Birch is coming from, is that he believes that acu should be much more widely reimbursed. His purpose in writing this article is to try to argue that sham/placebo should not be included in future designs, and that it was the inclusion of this feature that led to acu being 2150:
pro-acu view (since we're not talking to a unified "scene" here; acupuncture is quite diverse). This is a view from an acupuncturist (probably one of the few who work in scientific research), it's published in a TCM journal, and one of its two main points - attacking the sham design - was repeated in
2026:
doesn't allow non-independent material to be mentioned without an independent source drawing attention to it. How can you then say its ok to put in the criticism from a pseudoscientific journal when you lack that independent source. No, clearly it's not ok. Clearly you require the independent source.
1255:
I am with Middle8 on this one (although i could do without the unproductive editorializing in the last 2 sentences - please AGF for those who see the journal as questionable). If there is really a dispute over this, I would be happy to bring this journal to the MEDRS Talk page and get more input on

Except that the link you mentioned contains some of the sources that we already removed from the article. If you just revert back to that version, all those sources come back. You'll have to do it piecemeal anyway, so why not just justify the reincluded material here? I don't want to abandon previous

discussion of why the level of detail was moved yet lower. I intend to restore the RfC-validated level of detail. Objections? If so, they should be based on changes to PAG or new sources that emerged subsequent to the RfC, or somebody should explicitly say "I changed my mind" and give reasons...

Many medical claims lack reliable research about the efficacy and safety of proposed treatments or about the legitimacy of statements made by proponents. In such cases, reliable sources may be difficult to find while unreliable sources are readily available. Whenever writing about medical claims not

2219:
In a few places above, the claim has been made that this article is not about a FRINGE topic, but instead, is about a mainstream scientific topic - namely, a clinical trial. My sense, is that the preceding statement is true. MEDRS applies to any health-related content, since the topic is decidedly
1665:
c) Although Birch spends most of this "socio-political" analysis on trial design he has a very brief discussion of the decision to reimburse or not, and near the end of the article he states: "Will the fact that specific German socio-political factors influenced the choice of study, their design and

In order to put this criticism into perspective, I think it is important to include some
521:
You're becoming increasingly volatile in your talkpage discussions. Can you please calm down? QG posted a very short sentence that referenced a previous discussion, and you're accusing him of "changing your mind" on that basis? Perhaps you should consider taking a break from this rather oppressively
493:
God the threading in this Talk page is horrendous. OK, this is kind of what I meant above. Please give a reason why you changed your mind, QG. You proposed the longer version! I note that in article about a clinical trial it is difficult to see how content actually describing the trial design is
263:
This has got to be one of the worst sources I've read in a long time and really should not be used in this article. The source waxes eloquent about acupuncture topics without actually dealing with the outcomes of the trials. It is a terrible article and should not be used as a source for anything as

2895:
WP:FRINGE guides us to use independent sources. The Journal of traditional Chinese medicine is not independent (of TCM). Any significant claims made there which have permeated the mainstream will be easy to source independently. The claims jps mentions aren't primarily biomedical ones, so how would

d) It would be great if there was discussion of non-scientific factors related to the decision to reimburse or not, in sources acceptable to everybody. If such sources do not exist, discussion of the idea cannot rise to the lead of the article but need to remain isolated with the rest of what Birch
1616:
a) my sense is that QG is offering some horse-trading here in what I see as an effort to try to reach consensus. The deal is: QG offers support for using this source to describe acu-proponents' critique of the trials' design, execution and results, in exchange for Mallexikon accepting this content
1117:
Thanks for replying to my question above, 2Q, about whether the view in Birch is mainstream among acu-proponents. Mallexikon and Middle8, 2 questions. 1) In your opinions as experts in this field, is the view in Birch questioning the validity of the skills of the german acupuncturists mainstream
778:
come on alexbrn! the article said that the people giving the true acupuncture were not as competent as they could have been, and that the sham acupuncture equipment really had an effect - the result being that the measured efficacy was lower than it could have been, and the placebo was higher than
700:
Fringe criticisms are irrelevant and have no weight. This is for the same reason that we do not include astrologers rebuttals of tests of astrology because they have no weight (and they are also an irrational defence of their preconceived beliefs). These "rebuttals" always exist, but the due weight
406:
I object. First, I don't now what PAG is. Secondly, I don't think that the RfC is binding on content. Thirdly, in comparison, the version cited contains some sources that we've seemed to agree we should remove (He et al., for example). It would be unwise to reintroduce them. Finally, the article as

awesome. ok so you are not (in theory) opposed the previously agreed level of detail. I will get to work seeing if any the clearly good sources we have here (not marginal ones) support any of that and will propose re-introducing content and sources in a new section below so we can all be sure we

hey jps, would you please sign your comment above. This seems to be cherry-picking of his full quote "'Acupuncture represents a highly promising and effective treatment option for chronic back pain,' study co-author Dr. Heinz Endres of Ruhr University Bochum in Bochum, Germany, said in an e-mail.

2Q also was very clear that this source is fringe. I will say to you again, QG- if you can find some other source that says this, then sure, that statement can come in. As you wrote above, you don't have one, so this statement should be considered as FRINGE as everything else in that source. I

Don't take my word for it, read it! You'll notice wording like "When discussing topics that reliable sources say are pseudoscientific or fringe theories, editors should ..." Nothing says it only applies to articles about fringe subjects, it talks about when fringe content appears. That is because

Thanks, 2Q. I think that naming the journal from which the content comes was a good faith effort to signal that it is from proponents, but I agree it should be more explicit (if we keep it). I agree with your 2) and 3) which is why I say "if" and why I asked Mallexikon and Middle8 if they are

Determining what is the prevalent viewpoint is generally difficult amongst pseudoscientists. They tend to view their own approaches as the dominant way. A good example is in astrology where some groups declare it a religion and find claims that it acts like science to be offensive, while another

2108:
I'd like to sum up and close this section. No support from other sources has been brought for the criticism of GERAC stated by Birch, so we have no idea if that criticism is idiosyncratic or widespread among the pro-acu community, so the criticism should not come in even as a representative of
1022:
I frankly don't get it why you think that the Birch source should be used to comment on the Federal Joint Committee's decision (to reimburse acupuncture), but at the same time shouldn't be used to comment on the GERAC trials (which happen to be the nominal subject of this article). What kind of

1953:
Hi 2Q, I value your experience very much! But I think you might be mixing apples and oranges a bit and I would appreciate if you would clarify. This section is discussing a statement in a source, the statement being: "decision was made in part on the results of the trials and in part for
3165:
reasons." appears only in Birch. It was discussed above and is part of a bizarre, FRINGEy argument about why the GERAC trials were invalid. Please find a different source for this. Again, this claim appears nowhere but Birch - it is like the statement from He that you want to add.
1880:(in this case, criticism about GERAC's set-up). If we would have an independent source saying the same as an unreliable one, what would be point in using the unreliable one in the first place? We use unreliable sources "to show the views of the groups represented" by these sources. 2803:
for acupuncture because of GERAC. It is just tendentious IDHT on the part of quackguru to keep pushing for this source and that content now, especially as he has another source that he can use to support it now. But really, please see the thread above02:29, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
1856:. It says: "In particular, the relative space that an article devotes to different aspects of a fringe theory should follow from consideration primarily of the independent sources. Points that are not discussed in independent sources should not be given any space in articles." 357:
I hear you on that. As I read the literature, I find there are plenty of scientifically-minded people interested in testing acupuncture who, like good scientists, do not go beyond the evidence in asserting claims about efficacy, and who are frankly acknowledge that there is no
2652:
We can also include it per MEDDATE since there are not many sources on the topic. I don't see how FRINGE applies in this case when it is about a historical event. There's no theory behind the GERAC clinical trials. FRINGE can't trump MEDDATE even if this is a fringe topic.
836:
so we it's clear that it's the opinion of pseudoscientists, then we might be able to move forward. Is there any evidence that the competency level of acupuncturists affects outcomes? I haven't seen any independent evidence to that effect, just complaining that is done in

1707:
we keep the source and the language being discussed above, I think it is reasonable to include in the same block of text being discussed above, something like this "Birch found that the the design of the trial and decisions about reimbursement were shaped in part by
658:, a subject-matter expert, referenced this study in the above posts. It was not meant as an "attack on the intervention" nor is it off-target since it specifically references this specific set of clinical studies. Please be more careful before flying off the handle. 2547:
RFC sample size could be greater, but only 1 real !vote for the greater information. The lesser level of information avoids getting into WP:MEDRS violating WP:COATRACK. If the trials themselves are notable the article should be about the trials, not the acupuncture
1418:
yes 2Q, this is not on topic for the Birch source - that's been bothering me a bit but i didn't make a fuss over it. but it should be in a separate section. thanks for making this explicit - birch was published in Journal of Chinese Medicine not Acupuncture In
2444:
for pro-acu views, for sure. But what I have seen going on here is that instead of the background being simply stated (that acu itself is FRINGE), quack-fighters (generally awesome and hard working wikipedians) have been treating this article as though it is

acupuncture, not about acupuncture itself. I am sorry to belabor this and ask you to teach more, but I am going to open a separate section on this question, so that this section can remain focused on the issue of whether we keep the statement and its source.

1871:
an article about a fringe theory, you'd still be misusing this guideline. "Points that are not discussed..." clearly refers to "different aspects of a fringe theory". That doesn't mean we have to have an independent source saying
1589:: "This decision was made in part on the results of the trials and in part for socio-political reasons". I can see how this language is very useful for the acu-skeptics; it says explicitly that Germany decided to reimburse acu 1728:
1. The text does not make it obvious that this is by proponents 2. Sources independent of the proponents do not draw attention to this paper. 3. There is no obvious evidence that this is a common position amongst Acupuncturists.
1157:. Your point seems to be that the views of proponents of pseudoscience (in the case of acupuncture, it's actually questionable science, to be correct) should never and under no circumstances be mentioned at WP. Am I right? -- 796:
Regarding why I think it is important to include this text: to give a balanced view of the subject. GERAC attracted a lot of commentary; both by acu-opponents and acu-proponents (and the acu-proponents' criticism IMO is BS).
177:) to dispute the relevance of GERAC's results; ironically, this probably looked to some editors like a strong EBM proponent criticizing weak acu-promoting trials -- hence a lot of the votes to delete in the last AfD.) -- 2613:
I would say that now that we have a reliable source, there is even less need and a weaker argument, for including He, than before. It is still FRINGE. It is bizarre that you keep pushing to include a FRINGE source!

they obviously don't get the basics of the story right at all and spend most of the rest of the article shilling for acupuncture. This would be the equivalent to a public relations churn. Let's remove it.
1494:
Who publishes it hardly matters. What matters is its editorial policy and it is clear that this one does not promote independent review. Therefore, it is only reliable for the opinions of acupuncturists.
342:
The full quote is fine too. I just found it interesting that the co-author would point out that the placebo effect can explain the findings -- a perspective that seems to get short shrift in our article.
2154:
I frankly don't understand your opposition to include Birch's (and maybe also He et. al's) criticism here. What danger do you see in representing the pro-acu view on GERAC? Since it obviously exists. --
1101:. Independent sources are also necessary to determine the relationship of a fringe theory to mainstream scholarly discourse." You need independent sources to say that this fringe opinion has weight, 1802:

The only slight difference is that the onus is greater to justify fringe views if you claim its a mainstream article due to ONEWAY. 1542: 859:.
