TI

I would like to make a suggestion. If you feel that the TI got it wrong please provide studies that show it. If you can find a meta analysis of randomized controlled trials that show effectiveness and safety beyond two to three years I would be more then happy to look at them.

Here is a 2002 study Schachter HM, Pham B, King J, Langford S, Moher D (2001). "How efficacious and safe is short-acting methylphenidate for the treatment of attention-deficit disorder in children and adolescents? A meta-analysis". CMAJ. 165 (11): 1475–88. PMC 81663. PMID 11762571. {{cite journal}}: Unknown parameter |month= ignored (help)CS1 maint: multiple names: authors list (link)

A 2002 study that was published in 2001? Interesting.

I will not waste my time defending a claim that I did not make.

I pointed out that your source is not valid. It is your responsibility to defend that source, not mine to prove it wrong.

The TI is a selective opinion piece. It is NOT a peer-reviewed literature review, despite your assertion that it is.

Those are the statements that I am willing to spend my time defending.

Regarding your arguments over statements, I am not currently a part of that discussion and I will not be pushed into it. If I choose to join in, you are welcome to ask me to defend THOSE statements. ICBSeverywhere (talk) 19:50, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
