A Sugar Pill You Know Is Fake
A placebo is a treatment with no active ingredient, such as a sugar pill. For decades, doctors assumed that a placebo works only if the patient believes it is real medicine. Several recent studies challenged that assumption. Patients with chronic back pain were openly told that they were receiving sugar pills, yet after three weeks many reported less pain than patients who received no pills at all.
Researchers suggest that the ritual of treatment itself may matter: taking a pill at set times, visiting a clinic, and expecting to improve can change how the brain processes pain. However, the effect appeared mainly in symptoms that patients report themselves, such as pain or fatigue. Measurements such as the size of a tumor or the level of blood sugar did not improve.
Critics also note that patients in these studies knew whether they were receiving pills, so their reports may have been influenced by wanting to please the researchers. Even supporters agree that an honest placebo should never replace treatment that is known to work.
Which statement best reflects the position shared by both supporters and critics?
Jawaban: B
Pembahasan: Kalimat terakhir menyatakan bahkan pendukung setuju plasebo jujur tidak boleh menggantikan pengobatan yang terbukti berhasil; itulah titik temu kedua pihak.
