When is a trial not a trial? Can you make a big dataset work as if it was randomised? Can we really use real-world evidence rather than trial evidence for clinical decision-making? Read here: https://adc.bmj.com/content/111/4/373.2

The hardest decisions are those where the answer is truly complex, evolving and really involves an understanding of patient values and attitudes. This is a non-traditional Archimedes that attempts to address such a query with a fictional patient with long QT syndrome and a desire to go and do competitive sports. It needs to be read slowly and digested: https://adc.bmj.com/content/111/4/373.1

This podcast is written and presented by Dr Bob Phillips (York District Hospital, UK), Archimedes section editor of Archives of Disease in Childhood. He brings you the monthly episode about evidence-based medicine for paediatricians.

If you’ve got debris on a bladder ultrasound, that means there’s a UTI, doesn’t it? This month, we have a team of crack nephrologists looking in detail at floaty bits and bacteria being spotted by soundwaves: https://adc.bmj.com/content/111/3/283.1

We also bemoan the problem of wanting to smooth things out too quickly and make everyone do the same thing unnecessarily. Diversity and difference are sometimes a superpower! https://adc.bmj.com/content/111/2/193.2

We’re absolutely committed to being the most awkward section of the Archives of Disease in Childhood, and this month we’re managing it with not only having a gender-indeterminate ‘voice’ in this section and anthropomorphising a chunk of journal, but by leaping forward and backward in time.

AI has not been involved with this writing, but we’ll all be aware of where AI is creeping into our own professional and personal lives. Can it help in our high-quality evidence-based medicine, though? (Read more https://adc.bmj.com/content/111/2/193.2). Is it the future?

And looking to the past, should we be recommending breast milk for neonatal sticky eyes? And if not, why not? Again, a full explanation can be found in the journal: https://adc.bmj.com/content/111/2/193.1
