Zvonimir Maretić was the pioneer of the study of venomous animals and plants, toxicology, and tourism medicine. His achievements have been recognized, but insufficiently researched. His work covers a broad range of biomedical sciences: from public health, ecology, and environmental protection, to epidemiology and infectology. Maretić was one of the founding members of the International Society on Toxinology and the Toxicon journal's first Editorial Board. He was the first in Europe to prepare the antilatrodectic serum and to successfully apply the weever and scorpionfish antiserum on humans. This brief note tries to commemorate the achievements of Maretić, up to now poorly recognized and insufficiently researched.

We are pleased to introduce in this issue of Clinics in Dermatology a new section entitled "Art in Dermatology", which explores the interface between the visual arts and dermatology. This contribution focuses on the architectural structure known as a church spire that sits atop a church tower and which has lent its name to a dermatologic sign. Key phrases play an important role in clinical dermatology and dermatopathology.

An article by Harsha Shi et al. raises multiple concerns regarding sample preparation, the presence of the analyte in the analyzed solution, authenticity of the MS spectra, administration of drugs and blood collection, choice of internal standard, obtained pharmacokinetic parameters and usage of chromatographic column and solvents. While the research topic is interesting and the development of bioanalytical methods for novel drugs is crucial, this article does not seem to meet the analytical and methodological standards for the reliable determination of adagrasib and pembrolizumab in plasma samples.

Background: Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS®) pathways aim to improve patient outcomes by applying multimodal practices before, during, and after operative procedures. Compared with standard care before ERAS, we investigated whether compliance to ERAS guidelines for nutritional care, preoperative oral carbohydrate loading and postoperative oral nutrition, was associated with a decrease in hospital length of stay (LOS) after pancreaticoduodenectomy, distal pancreatectomy, hepatectomy, radical cystectomy, and head and neck tumor resection with reconstruction.
Methods: Compliance to ERAS nutrition recommendations was evaluated.
