What proportion of children do you think report bullying? Do you think if, like the kids on the deserted island of Lord of the Flies, you have asthma that it’s worse? We discuss this and the evidence behind it this month - https://adc.bmj.com/content/105/9/903.1 … and we also talk about choosing chips too - https://adc.bmj.com/content/105/9/903.2.
Where the podcast can’t quite capture the complexity and beauty in writing is in an Archi report about the management of drooling in children with cerebral palsy - you can read it properly here - https://adc.bmj.com/content/105/9/906 - or listen to a greatly abbreviated version in this podcast.
Tell us the answers to your evidence-based questions by sending in your own Archimedes too, also while you’re around, share the love by sharing this podcast with your grannies, siblings and colleagues.

I’m fairly sure we are all a bit exhausted by this pandemic. It’s not been nice. There have been changes which we all wonder about, trying to find silver linings, feeling awkward .. and which we muse on in this podcast (and here https://blogs.bmj.com/adc/2020/06/24/learnable-moments/ )
The meat of this month’s Archi is two issues which may make us uncomfortable as paediatricians too; how effective are non-standard therapies for tension headache (https://adc.bmj.com/content/early/2020/06/19/archdischild-2020-319303) and in addition to intensive psychological support and food, should we be offering exogenous oestrogens for bone health in teenage girls with anorexia? (https://adc.bmj.com/content/early/2020/06/09/archdischild-2019-318571)
We want to know how you’re thinking about evidence based practice too - what makes you feel uncomfortable enough to get to the library and look for the evidence - let us know or send us your Archi! Kids need evidence too.

You might be able to hear the tinkle of a tiny bell and the purr of a kitten on this month’s offerting, while you’re considering whywe have fewer trials of the ‘normal’ than we do of the extraordinary (https://blogs.bmj.com/adc/2020/05/20/questioning-the-minutiae/) and then be impressed by those who have tried to see if nasal lignocaine helps kids when they’re having an NG passed ( https://adc.bmj.com/content/early/2020/06/03/archdischild-2020-319197 ). You might also wonder if you’re about to request a CXR for a kid whose well and just had their chest drain taken out if you could save them, yourself, and the radiology team a lot of hassle by reading this one (https://adc.bmj.com/content/early/2020/05/31/archdischild-2020-318814)
We want to know how you’re thinking about evidence based practice too - let us know or send us your Archi!
