Measuring Clinical Benefit in Neonatal Randomized Clinical Trials: Challenges and Opportunities
Many of the therapeutics commonly used in neonatal intensive care units (NICU) are not specifically labeled or approved for use in neonates (ie, defined as infants less than 28 days of life, or less than 28 days corrected age for preterm infants).a As such, clinicians lack critical safety and efficacy information on the use of medical products to treat neonatal conditions. Additionally, neonatal-specific medical conditions frequently lack safe and effective treatments, resulting in an unmet need for drug development. (Source: The Journal of Pediatrics)

The Transition to Retirement for the Clinician Educator: A Gap in the Academic Life Cycle of Pediatric Faculty
A recent article by Tolleson-Rinehart et al in The Journal of Pediatrics addresses career transitions of senior faculty, surveying the views of Pediatrics chairs and faculty at the professorial level.1 While illuminating and providing a valuable update, a number of respondents were faculty funded for research or concerned about continued funding. In contrast, clinician educators (CEs), typically with modest or no scholarly research funding, constitute the majority of those who provide the patient care, teaching, and educational and sometimes clinical scholarship in academic health centers (AHCs).
