Makers of popular antidepressants such as Paxil, Zoloft and Effexor have refused to disclose the details of most clinical trials involving depressed
children, denying doctors and parents crucial evidence as they weigh fresh fears that such medicines may cause some children to become suicidal.

scientific record.
