3、ne Google away.Still,I struggled with how I was going to prepare to become an all-knowing mother.Then one day,it struck me:I didnt need to have all the answers.What a great example I could set if I let my daughter know that I,too,was still learning.And I realized how much more I could learn if I too

18、(开处方)drugs that have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration(FDA)for purposes different from what is printed on the labels,the drugs are being used“off-label”Just because a drug is FDA-approved for a specific type of disease does not prevent it from having possible benefits for other purpo

19、ses.For example,Metformin,a drug that is FDA-approved for treating type 2 diabetes,is also used to treat PCOS(a disease of women),and other diseases.Trazodone,an anti-depressant with FDA-approval to treat depression,is also prescribed by doctors to help treat patients with sleep issues.The Ohio Stat

21、increases in skin rashes(红疹).Music festivals do not directly cause skin rashes.In this case,one possible confounding factor between the two may be outdoor heat,as music festivals tend to run outdoors when the temperature is high,and heat is a known cause for rashes.When working with real-world data,
