ADC PodcastKnowing when not to do something. Archimedes January 2025Archives of Disease in Childhood's Archimedes section editor, Dr Bob Phillips (York District Hospital, UK) brings you the monthly episode about evidence-based medicine for paediatricians. Today, with a bonus interview with Mr Josh Totty, NIHR Clinical Lecturer in Plastic Surgery:
Prep for an LP, stat! We previously talked in an Archimedes about the really low chance of meningitis in UTI in infants [https://adc.bmj.com/content/96/6/602.2] but what about those infants with actual bacteraemia and a UTI - are they the group at higher risk who need invasive investigation? Listen on or read here to find...

2024-06-2011 minADC PodcastBadness: balancing risks in rheumatic disease treatmentNone of us want bad things to happen; we went into this career to reduce the number or severity of badness for babies, children and young people after all. But how to tell if our actions are leading to more adverse effects… it’s touched on in the podcast but read more here (https://adc.bmj.com/content/109/2/167.2)
We’re also thinking about balancing badness - the possible problems of NSAIDs alongside the problems from PPIs used trying to prevent them. There’s a really good read and discussion of the challenges here (https://adc.bmj.com/content...

DTB PodcastProtecting consumers, tramadol-warfarin interaction and very low calorie diets
In this podcast recorded in early February, James Cave (Editor-in-Chief) and David Phizackerley (Deputy Editor) talk about the March 2024 issue of DTB. They discuss the editorial highlighting the important work that the founders of The Medical Letter, Worst Pills, Best Pills and Drug and Therapeutics Bulletin did to scrutinise the safety of medicines and the need to challenge the processes by which medicines are licensed, appraised, commissioned and promoted (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/62/3/34). They review a coroner's Prevention of Future Deaths report that highlighted an interaction between tramadol and warfarin (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/62/3/36). They also talk about a study...
2024-02-2827 minADC PodcastAll that’s sticky isn’t gold(en syrup)Honey, sweetie pie, babe … all the sorts of slushy nominative phrases that get thrown into the droning movies and teen-focussed telly programmes we probably love to watch. But honey, the bear-beloved treat, could that help with hay fever? An intrepid evidence-based gang tried to answer the question for you (https://adc.bmj.com/content/109/1/71.1)
And we also chat in this podcast about the problems of cheap boots and damp toes (indirectly). (https://adc.bmj.com/content/109/1/71.2)

EMJ PodcastManaging acute behavioural disturbance, and some innovations in emergency care: January 2024 Primary SurveyWhat are the questions to ask when dealing with acute behavioural disturbance? Join Sarah and Rick this month for a discussion of this difficult presentation. They also explore the topics of reducing low-acuity attendance, taking NHS 111 online, and the impact of a health coaching intervention for potentially recurrent attendees.
Articles discussed in this episode:
Highlights of the January 2024 issue

2024-01-0831 minADC PodcastReally difficult stuffProving something is safe, or that bad things don’t happen, is always hard. Really hard. And when people turn to the published literature to investigate adverse effects you have to send them much praise - like the team have done in this month's Archimedes when looking at if baclofen causes seizures (https://adc.bmj.com/content/108/12/1028.1).
The other thing we often struggle with is how much we can lump stuff together in a systematic review (https://adc.bmj.com/content/108/12/1028.2). So we chat about that. If you’re comparing fruit salad with potato salad, it’s probab...

They discuss monitoring drugs in primary care and the need to rationalise the number of blood tests undertaken (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/61/12/178). They talk about a study that reported the effect of bempedoic acid on a composite cardiovascular outcome (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/61/12/180). The main article is a review of semaglutide as an option for weight management and discusses the evidence for its use and some of the hype that has surrounded the its launch (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/61/12/182...
2023-11-3026 minADC PodcastTech, tools and the fantasy of forwardThe world advanced through the Next Great Thing. Like the C5 electric scooter, Hindenberg air ship and velocipedes. It’s always easy to see the next great thing being ignored when you look backwards in time - but what about looking forwards? Is video-assisted thoracoscopic draining of complicated infected pleural fluid really any better than a tiny plastic pipe and squirting in some fibrin muncher? (https://adc.bmj.com/content/108/11/940.1)
We chat about that, and your commoner medical devices (https://adc.bmj.com/content/108/11/940.2) on this month’s podcast.

This podcast is all about how you sometimes need to state the obvious (https://adc.bmj.com/content/108/10/862.2) and sometimes you need to question it (https://adc.bmj.com/content/108/10/862.1). Have a listen and consider what you’d do.
