Fred, I'd be interested in seeing those among us trained in statistics parse this out: <<The researchers analyzed 2.5 million adverse events reported by doctors, patients, and individuals since 1968. Of the 307 reports of pituitary tumors, 64, or 21%, occurred in patients taking antipsychotics. <b?Forty-eight reports of pituitary tumors were reported in patients taking Risperdal....>>

This doesn't even purport to focus on all those taking Risperdal, but just on adverse events, as I understand it, among users of any drug since 1968. This might not even loom as a statistical follicle on the back of a camel, but I don't know.
