Ethanol, a bioactive compound prevalent in both social and industrial applications, is present in alcoholic beverages as well as a range of everyday products. In food, ethanol functions primarily as an additive or a by-product of fermentation, while in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, it serves as a solvent or preservative. Despite its widespread use, three critical research gaps exist in current literature.

Background And Purpose: In proton therapy, a relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of 1.1 is used to convert proton dose into an equivalent photon dose. However, RBE varies with tissue type, fraction dose, and beam quality parameters beyond dose such as linear energy transfer (LET) raising concerns about increased local effectiveness and potential toxicity.

Multi-site and multi-organizational teams are increasingly common in epidemiologic research; however, there is a lack of standards or best practices for achieving success in collaborative research networks in epidemiology. We summarize our experiences and lessons learned from the Diabetes Location, Environmental Attributes, and Disparities (LEAD) Network, a collaborative agreement between the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and research teams at Drexel University, New York University, Johns Hopkins University and Geisinger, and the University of Alabama at Birmingham. We present a roadmap for success in collaborative epidemiologic research, with recommendations focused on the following areas to maximize efficiency and success in collaborative research agreements: 1) operational and administrative considerations; 2) data access and sharing of sensitive data; 3) aligning network research aims; 4) harmonization of methods and measures; and 5) dissemination of findings.

The fertility preservation (FP) is a paramount concern for oncology patients and should be regarded as an essential component of their overall cancer management strategy. The magnitude of this issue has been recognized in FP guidelines. The formulation and execution of harmonized guidelines and policies concerning the provision of FP services, inclusive of therapeutic strategies and standardization of procedures, are crucial to surmount disagreements regarding the delivery of these therapeutic services and avert delays in cancer treatment.

Comparisons of maximum drug concentration (C) and total area under the concentration vs. time curve (AUC) may be inadequate for bioavailability (BA)/bioequivalence (BE) assessments in cases where the shape of the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of a drug impacts the clinical performance. In such cases, partial area under the concentration vs.
