Objectives: The present study aimed to meta-analytically estimate the dose-response relationship of atomoxetine for treating children with ADHD.
Methods: We systematically searched double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trials that evaluated the effectiveness of atomoxetine for treating ADHD in children. The search was carried out in PubMed, Cochrane Library, CINHAL, and ClinicalTrials.gov databases, covering articles from their inception until January 20, 2023. In addition, a dose-response meta-analysis was conducted.
Results: In this dose-response meta-analysis, 12 double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trials involving 2,250 patients were included. The efficacy of atomoxetine increased up to a dosage of 1.4 mg/kg, after which it reached a plateau.
Conclusions: The first dose-response meta-analysis of atomoxetine dosing for children with ADHD conducted here enhances the robustness of the Food and Drug Administration and the European Medicines Agency dose recommendations.

Objective: Traditional initial treatment regimens for lupus nephritis (LN) used oral glucocorticoids (GC) in starting doses up to 1.0 mg/kg/day prednisone equivalent with or without a preceding intravenous methylprednisolone pulse. More recent management guidelines recommend lower starting oral GC doses following intravenous pulse therapy.

Importance: Previous meta-analyses suggest that fluoride exposure is adversely associated with children's IQ scores. An individual's total fluoride exposure comes primarily from fluoride in drinking water, food, and beverages.
Objective: To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of epidemiological studies investigating children's IQ scores and prenatal or postnatal fluoride exposure.

Selecting the optimal dose of psilocybin for treating Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and Treatment-Resistant Depression (TRD) is crucial for clinical development and regulatory approval. This meta-analysis evaluates psilocybin's efficacy and safety in treating MDD to determine the optimal dose and timing for clinical trials. A systematic review and Dose-Response Network Meta-Analysis (NMA) of Randomized Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trials (RCTs) registered with PROSPERO was conducted.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of dietary metabolizable energy levels on various performance indicators of medium-sized geese, with the goal of predicting the optimal range of these energy levels. A comprehensive literature search was conducted across several databases, including Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, China Science and Technology Journal Database, PubMed, Web of Science, and ScienceDirect, covering the period from January 1, 2000, to July 1, 2024. The gathered studies focused on the impact of dietary metabolizable energy levels on the production performance of medium-sized geese.

Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed the adverse effects of using isosulfan blue dye in sentinel lymph node mapping for breast cancer, reviewing data from Medline and Embase.
- The overall adverse event rate was found to be low at 11.65 events per 1,000 patients, with the most common issue being mild allergic skin reactions (Grade I).
- Intraparenchymal administration had a higher adverse event rate than peritumoral injection, but both methods resulted in low overall risk, suggesting that isosulfan is a safe option for clinicians in SLN mapping.
