Arch Dis Child 2001 Volume 85 No 3
A bimonthly series starts in this month's
ADC which, for an acronymous reason none of
us can now recall, is entitled Archimedes (page 252). The aim is that
in the time it takes to run a bath, readers are provided with the best
evidence available to solve a clinical question. Bob Phillips, a
paediatric specialist registrar (senior resident) edits the section,
and we hope others in training will offer contributions to the series.
It is not often that we receive a paper whose database represents
individuals who stopped being paediatric patients more than 60 years
ago (page 189). The question addressed is the controversial one of
whether fetal undernutrition affects cognitive function, regardless of
socioeconomic status. The authors have birthweight, gestational age and
some sociodemographic data on nearly 1000 babies born in one Scottish
hospital in 1921. They also have information on cognitive testing
