Educational material, for example in the form of information booklets, checklists, patient alert cards, therapeutic passports, emergency ID cards, or videos, is an important aid for the safe use of a medicinal product or drug and supplements the summary of product characteristics and package information. It is ordered, tested and approved by the competent national authorities, the Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices (BfArM) and the Paul Ehrlich Institute (PEI), and made available by the respective marketing authorization holder and published on the websites of BfArM and PEI. Educational material is part of the marketing authorization of a medicinal product. Since 1 December 2016, officially approved educational material can be recognized by the blue-hand logo in Germany. There is currently specific educational material for 202 active substances with further recommendations on how to avoid or reduce risks for patients. Although educational material is one of the most common additional risk minimisation measures, little is known about its effectiveness, including related process and outcome indicators. Key elements as well as an overview of educational material are described.

Half-Metallic Antiferromagnetic 2D Nonlayered CrSe Nanosheets.

ACS Nano

SKKU Advanced Institute of Nanotechnology (SAINT), Sungkyunkwan University, Suwon 16419, Republic of Korea.

Half-metallic magnetism, characterized by metallic behavior in one spin direction and semiconducting or insulating behavior in the opposite spin direction, is an intriguing and highly useful physical property for advanced spintronics because it allows for the complete realization of 100% spin-polarized current. Particularly, half-metallic antiferromagnetism is recognized as an excellent candidate for the development of highly efficient spintronic devices due to its zero net magnetic moment combined with 100% spin polarization, which results in lower energy losses and eliminates stray magnetic fields compared to half-metallic ferromagnets. However, the synthesis and characterization of half-metallic antiferromagnets have not been reported until now as the theoretically proposed materials require a delicate and challenging approach to fabricate such complex compounds.

Machine Learning Boosted Entropy-Engineered Synthesis of CuCo Nanometric Solid Solution Alloys for Near-100% Nitrate-to-Ammonia Selectivity.

ACS Appl Mater Interfaces

December 2024

Key Laboratory of Synthetic and Biological Colloids, Ministry of Education, School of Chemical and Material Engineering, Jiangnan University, 214122 Jiangsu, China.

Nanometric solid solution alloys are utilized in a broad range of fields, including catalysis, energy storage, medical application, and sensor technology. Unfortunately, the synthesis of these alloys becomes increasingly challenging as the disparity between the metal elements grows, due to differences in atomic sizes, melting points, and chemical affinities. This study utilized a data-driven approach incorporating sample balancing enhancement techniques and multilayer perceptron (MLP) algorithms to improve the model's ability to handle imbalanced data, significantly boosting the efficiency of experimental parameter optimization.
