I read with interest carefully the article by He et al. [
[1]
] published in a recent issue of American Journal of Emergency Medicine. The topic
of the meta-analysis is interesting and much work and effort was put in this study
to evaluate the efficacy of Nigella sativa supplementation in asthmatic patients. While I generally agree with the conclusions
of the study, I would like to express our concerns regarding some methodological issues.- He T.
