We all have moments of crying out “But why on EARTH did they do that study?” after a blisteringly obvious result is revealed … and we chat a little here about why that might be the case (https://adc.bmj.com/content/106/1/90.2) but the real story of this episode is all about antiepileptic drugs (AED) and bones.
We start asking the question “Do children on AED get thinner bones?” (https://adc.bmj.com/content/106/1/92) and lead from there to the question “Well should we prescribe Vitamin D to all of them?” (https://adc.bmj.com/content/106/1/90.1). If anyone here isn’t aware of it, you should take extra special precautions if you’re prescribing sodium valproate to patients who could become pregnant: the short version would be “prescribe something else”.

Do opiates make pain more bearable than non-steroidals in the emergency department? When you’ve got a really, really painful musculoskeletal injury? Well, listen up to find the answer, and read here: https://adc.bmj.com/content/105/12/1229.1.
And you know that we leave a four-week gap between live-attenuated immunisations, but do we really need to do that, especially with more modern ones? (https://adc.bmj.com/content/105/12/1232)
After wondering about how to define not knowing, we now talk about what levels of certainty we might need in different situations … and, well, it won’t be a spoiler to say “It Depends” (https://adc.bmj.com/content/105/12/1229.2).

We all know steroids are anti-inflammatory - but should they be used as a kid with Kawaski disease walks through the door? We wonder about that in this issue (https://adc.bmj.com/content/105/11/1120.1), along with what sort of beta blocker you can use for high-risk infantile haemangiomas … can you just rub a bit of magic cream on and make it go away (https://adc.bmj.com/content/105/11/1124).
And we also wonder and twitter about the limits of knowing, and how we can do better with our words sometimes; separating the uncertain, the unclear and the ambiguous.(https://adc.bmj.com/content/105/11/1120.2)
