06-1 Single and double blind randomized controlled studies in the field of balneology (aspects of locomotor diseases) / 日本温泉気候物理医学会雑誌

  The aim of the lecture is to overview the single and doube blind studies related to musculoskeletal diseases. We systematically searched articles in the Pubmed, Scopus, Web of science and PEDro databeses published by blinding method, a total of 28 studies (10 double blind and 18 single blind) were identified. The randomised single or double blind studies clearly present the highest evidence, to avoid the publication bias. In balneotheray, due to technical challenges sometimes it is really diffucult to accomplish the blinding methods.
