Research Review
Mar 20, 2025
Abstract
Research may be dangerous for your health. Attempting a research review may be especially dangerous for your mental health: just searching for appropriate literature to review made me want to pull my hair out (– and “trichotil- lomania” is an explicit, “serious” diagnosis according to ICD-10 or DSM-5). Most “hard-core” research publica- tions exist as abstracts only, or as pay(-a-lot)-per-access to them if you don’t have the right institutional membership. Only after a lengthy and mostly vain search did I realise that the former academic scientist (biologist) within me had a somewhat over-restricted idea or scheme of what I was looking for: to try and find something as close as possible to RCTs, randomised controlled clinical trials.
