Objectives: To evaluate the association between race and the named etiology for inadequate weight gain among hospitalized infants and assess the differences in management.
Methods: This single-center retrospective cohort study of infants hospitalized for the workup and management of inadequate weight gain used infant race and neighborhood-level socioeconomic deprivation as exposures. The etiology of inadequate weight gain was categorized as nonorganic, subjective organic (ie, gastroesophageal reflux and cow's milk protein intolerance), or objective organic (eg, hypothyroidism).

Objective: To determine the trajectory and magnitude of antidepressant response as well as the effect of antidepressant class and dose on symptomatic improvement in pediatric anxiety disorders.
Method: Weekly symptom severity data were extracted from randomized, parallel group, placebo-controlled trials of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and selective serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) in pediatric anxiety disorders. Treatment response was modeled for the standardized change in continuous measures of anxiety using Bayesian updating.
