Abstract
PURPOSE The objectives of this meta-analysis were to summarize the key surgical procedures for UVCP and to evaluate which of these is associated with better results in terms of vocal improvement. METHODS A systematic review of the literature was conducted in search of articles focused on the comparison of voice outcome between different techniques for the UVCP treatment. Then, a quantitative analysis was carried out for papers published from 2013 onwards, reporting only adult patients with unilateral paralysis for each study, and each surgical technique was evaluated for its capability of achieving good functional outcomes in terms of GRBAS-I scale and maximum phonation time in seconds (MPT). RESULTS The search identified 1853 publications. A total of 159 articles were stratified and included according to our selection criteria. 21 out of 159 articles were selected for quantitative synthesis. For trans-oral techniques: the mean GRBAS-I scale were 2.33 before injection and 0.41 after injection. The mean MPT before injection were 4.78 and 12.50 after injection. For open techniques the mean GRBAS-I scale were 2.43 before surgery and 0.68 after surgery. For open technique, the mean MPT were 3.50 before surgery and 12.40 after surgery. CONCLUSIONS The two types of techniques lead to an improvement in terms of vocal outcomes emphasizing that from the examined literature an indication emerges to perform an early injection because this could reduce the possible need for a more invasive intervention of permanent medialization in the future.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Methylphenidate is the most frequently used medication for the treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in Europe. Following concerns about its safety, the European Commission called for research into the long-term effects of methylphenidate on children and adolescents with ADHD. The Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Drugs Use Chronic Effects (ADDUCE) research programme was designed to address this call. At the heart of this programme is a 2-year longitudinal naturalistic pharmacovigilance study being conducted in 27 European sites. METHODS AND ANALYSIS 3 cohorts of children and adolescents (aged 6-17) living in the UK, Germany, Italy and Hungary are being recruited:Group 1 (Medicated ADHD): 800 ADHD medication-naive children and adolescents with a clinical diagnosis of ADHD about to start methylphenidate treatment for the first time.Group 2 (Unmedicated ADHD): 400 children and adolescents with a clinical diagnosis of ADHD who have never been treated with ADHD medication and have no intention of beginning medication.Group 3 (Non-ADHD): 400 children and adolescents without ADHD who are siblings of individuals in either group 1 or 2.All participants will be assessed 5 times during their 2-year follow-up period for growth and development, psychiatric, neurological and cardiovascular health. The primary outcome measure will be the height velocity SD score. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION Ethical approval for the study has been granted by the East of Scotland Research Ethics Service. Following this approval, patient information leaflets and consent forms were translated as necessary and submissions made by lead sites in each of the other 3 countries to their own ethics committees. Following ethical approval in each country, local ethical permissions at each site were sought and obtained as needed. The study's website (http://www.adhd-adduce.org/page/view/2/Home) provides information for researchers, participants and the general public. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT01470261.
