“…The practices of CAM vary among populations and greatly depend on the socio-economic, cultural, and geographical structure (Hakkoymaz & Koçyiğit, 2019). There are literature data indicating the demographic features such as age, gender, education, and the clinical characteristics, like the diagnosis, treatment, and comorbidities are the main influencers of CAM use and related patterns, such as the source of information of, the attitudes towards, and the perceived effects from CAM (Abuelgasim et al, 2018;Bauml et al, 2015;Berretta et al, 2017;Can, Erol, Aydiner, & Topuz, 2009;D'Arena et al, 2014;Demir & Erol, 2018;Gan, Leong, Bee, Chin, & Teh, 2015;Gözüm, Tezel, & Koc, 2003;Hakkoymaz & Koçyiğit, 2019;Hensel, Zoz, & Ho, 2009;Hierl et al, 2017;Karacan et al, 2012;Lopez et al, 2019;Molassiotis et al, 2005;Rausch Osian et al, 2015;Risberg et al, 2003;Tas et al, 2005;Tazi, Nafil, Sifesalam, Bouchtia, & Mahmal, 2013;Wode, Henriksson, Sharp, Stoltenberg, & Hök Nordberg, 2019;Wortmann et al, 2016;Yalcin, Hurmuz, McQuinn, & Naing, 2018;Şahin & Şahin, 2013). Regardless of the chosen practices, most patients who are unaware of the potential health risks refrain from informing physicians on their use of CAM.…”
