Today we present 18 new placebo research papers and a new book identified during August 2016. As usual, they are based on new PUBMED publication using the search term „placebo“ and are hand-selected from more than 683 new publications during the preceding month. Previously published monthly updates can be found in our archive. Todays selection as well as all previously identified papers will also go into our placebo research library that currently contains more than 3,200 relevant papers.
