“…A 'causal chain' (chap 2.1.d) -wisely knowing that such a chain has no other meaning than to exhibit the theory and interest of the observer -would be nutrition cholesterol Helicobacter stomach ulcer * Every intervention, every drug changes the gut flora contributing to many diseases (Stockert 2001). The effects of iron, antibiotics and systemic cortisone can be judged in middle and long term only, when their effects on the gut are considered.…”

“…But the bacteria of the environment as well. It has been shown that infants born in a modern hospital are exposed to fewer bacteria and develop a less rich flora than children under 'normal' hygienic conditions (Stockert 2001). As in hospitals patients acquire multiple antibiotic-resistant enterococcal strains within days of admission (Gilmore/Ferretti 2003) hospital birth might contribute to allergic disease in two ways.…”

Journal and all the other similar journals present? In a way yes. They create a standard by only publishing papers that (on a meta-level) fulfil the expressed and unexpressed criteria how medicine should be. This has been called a "publication bias in situ" (Phillips 2004), something far away from an ‚evidence based publishing' (Tite/Schroter 2006).However, "the process (of selecting papers) has been designed to benefit authors not readers. The authors need to get their work published in order to gain academic credit, promotion, and the next grant and often don't care whether anybody reads what they write" as the former editor of the British Medical Journal admitted (Smith R, 2003c). On the other side, in order to be published, the authors write (on a meta-level) how medical journals want papers to be. It is a recursive process that, in effect, creates the paradigm of medical journals. As a result, there is a danger of evidence-based medicine to pursue what is possible and available rather than what is relevant" (Maeseneer et al. 2003) Often the result is not what physicians need. There is a "10/90 gap, whereby less than 10% of health research is concerned with the conditions that account for 90% of global disease, (and this) may well be a 1/99 gap when it comes to health information" (Smith 2004e).That is, research does not investigate what physicians encounter, but what scientists are funded for. And they are funded for subjects that are often published. "Systematic reviews follow the priorities of established market economies rather than global priorities" (Swingler et al 2003). By this, published medicine does neither match nor represent practiced medicine.As medical journals provide a strange collection of results, unrelated in inner meaning and unrelated to medical practice, mainly in a boring manner (British Medical Journal 2004a) every practitioner has to find his own way through this jungle. He creates his own style, a mixture of theoretical knowledge, para -universiterian tradition, own experience and mom's advice, something that has been called the 'unofficial model' (Uexküll 2001). It is important to understand that this is not accidentally so. It is, as will be proved, an unavoidable consequence of the current medical paradigm. Some decades ago Bleuler called this kind of approach as 'the autistic-undisciplined thinking in medicine' (Bleuler 1962).May be this accusation seems to be too strict, at first. But using a modern definition of autism -"impaired language, social and communicative deficits, repetitive and stereotyped behaviors" (Powell 2004) -Bleuler's claim is strikingly correct for the human physiology and pathology the observed phenomena are broken down into defined parts, a procedure called reductionism.Under the conditions of such an experimental setting a certain range of observation is defined. In this range parameters and their changes through interventions can be coherently tracked. Thus, the concept of cause and effect is introduced.The received descriptions and reactional patterns (...
