b>Vartanian et al., Effects of soft drink consumption on nutrition and health Methods: We focused on research investigating the effects of sugar-sweetened beverages; diet and artificially sweetened beverages are noted only in certain cases for comparison purposes. We conducted a computer search through MEDLINE and PsycINFO using the key terms “soft drink,” “soda,” and “sweetened beverage.” We identified articles that assessed the association of soft drink consumption with 4 primary outcomes (energy intake, body weight, milk intake, and calcium intake) and 2 secondary outcomes (nutrition and health). We identified additional articles by searching each article’s reference section and the Web of Science database. Finally, we contacted the authors of each included article with a request for unpublished or in-press work, and we asked each author to forward our request to other researchers who might have relevant work. Our searches yielded a total of 88 articles that were included in the present analysis. What type of study design does this Methods section describe?

A. Case control study
B. Cohort study
C. Interventional study
D. Meta-analysis

b>Simonin et al., Caffeine intake and age at onset in Huntington’s disease Abstract: To determine a possible relationship between caffeine consumption and age at onset (AAO) in HD, we retrospectively assessed caffeine consumption in 80 HD patients using a dietary survey and determined relationship with AAO. Following adjustment for gender, smoking status and CAG repeat length, caffeine consumption greater than 190mg/day was significantly associated with an earlier AAO. Based on the above description from the abstract, the study design used by the researchers was a:

A. Case control study
