The Chinese Anti-Epilepsy Association has publicly published a “confession” summarizing the “ten traps” caused by false advertisements on the Internet for patients’ treatment, reminding the majority of patients to shine their eyes and be careful not to be fooled.
Ten traps
Trap 1: impersonating professors, experts, the bigger the better
Trap 2: Informal medicine, using anti-epileptic Chinese medicine, ancestral secret recipes, pure natural medicine, international development, no side effects and other names to sell fake drugs.
Trap 3: Fake high-tech, often using genes, nano, ion, superconductivity, transplantation and other technological buzzwords.
Trap 4: Counterfeit academic organizations, usually using national and world-class academic organization titles, some of which are stolen and some are fabricated to make people send money to purchase drugs.
Trap 5: Counterfeit rankings, counterfeit local governments, the State Council, the Academy of Medical Sciences, medical associations and other randomly fabricated assessment and award rankings, the contents of which are indiscriminately fabricated.
Trap 6: Counterfeit authoritative advertisement, borrowing the name of influential media, such as CCTV, etc., and publishing advertisements below or making the website of an authoritative society to peddle fake doctors and drugs.
Trap 7: fake medical institutions, illegal medical outlets in the form of academic conferences, expert inspections, international cooperation and other dazzling launch, in the name of famous experts sitting in the name of scientific research projects launched on the ground that the first new medical art, to lure patients to be deceived.
Trap 8: infinite exaggeration of efficacy, absolute exaggeration as a feature, the usual words such as package, guarantee good, cure, the first for common use
Trap 9: fabrication of false cases, to a certain hospital in a certain encounter with a good doctor to get rid of the disease as a model, fabricated and infinitely exaggerated false cases, so that patients in the near scene of the atmosphere of public opinion in the right number, deceived.

Six deceptive words
Gene therapy: In fact, there is no mature gene therapy technology, not to mention the clinical application.
Nanotechnology: there is actually no nanotechnology for clinical use
Stem cell therapy: the recent situation is only the culture of stem cells directed development, at present is still the basic research stage, from the walk into the clinic is still quite a distance
Nerve growth factor: there is no evidence that nerve growth factor can treat epilepsy

Laser therapy: for epilepsy treatment, it is also nothing.
