New England Journal of Medicine: Correspondence: The question of whether pulse oximetry measurements vary according to race has not been adequately studied, despite the wide use of this measure in clinical care.

NEJM Journal Watch: In a randomized trial, high-dose vitamin D supplementation in pregnant women didn't improve neurodevelopmental outcomes in their offspring.
