Introduction: Artificial intelligence (AI) based tools offer new opportunities for pharmacovigilance (PV) activities. Nevertheless, their contribution to PV needs to be tailored to preserve and strengthen medical and pharmacological expertise in drug safety.
Areas Covered: This work aims to describe PV tasks in which the contribution of AI and intelligent automation (IA) tools is required, in the context of a continuous increase of spontaneous reporting cases and regulatory tasks. A narrative review with expert selection of pertinent references was performed through Medline. Two areas were covered, management of spontaneous reporting cases and signal detection.
Perspective: The use of AI and IA tools will assist a large spectrum of PV activities, both in public and private PV systems, in particular for tasks of low added value (e.g. initial quality check, verification of essential regulatory information, search for duplicates). Testing, validating, and integrating these tools in the PV routine are the actual challenges for modern PV systems, to guarantee high-quality standards in terms of case management and signal detection.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has been reported to exhibit altered local functional consistency. However, previous studies mainly focused on male samples and explored the temporal consistency in the ASD brain ignoring the spatial consistency. In this study, FOur-dimensional Consistency of local neural Activities (FOCA) analysis was used to investigate the sex differences of local spatiotemporal consistency of spontaneous brain activity in ASD.

Introduction And Hypothesis: Autologous fascia lata has been increasingly utilised in pelvic floor reconstructive surgeries such as sacrocolpopexy and sacrohysteropexy. This case highlights sacrohysteropexy with autologous fascia lata as a promising option for women with advanced uterovaginal prolapse who wish to preserve their uterus and avoid synthetic mesh.
Methods: We report the case of a 65-year-old woman with stage 3 pelvic organ prolapse following one forceps and one spontaneous vaginal delivery.

Background: Autoimmune disorders have primary manifestations such as joint pain and bowel inflammation but can also have secondary manifestations such as non-infectious uveitis (NIU). A regulatory health authority raised concerns after receiving spontaneous reports for NIU following exposure to Remicade, a biologic therapy with multiple indications for which alternative therapies are available. In assessment of this clinical question, we applied validity diagnostics to support observational data causal inferences.

Background: Systemic amyloidosis is a kind of clinical syndrome in which amyloid is deposited between the cells of various organs in the body, resulting in gradual failure of the function of the affected organs. Depending on the site of amyloid deposition, it may show various clinical symptoms of multiple system involvement.
Patient Concerns: A 44-years-old female with spontaneous giant retroperitoneal hematoma was admitted to the emergency department of Peking Union Medical College Hospital in Mar 2023.
Effectiveness of the modified TaWai mobile application for reporting adverse drug reaction in Lao PDR: a cluster randomized controlled trial.

Spontaneous adverse drug reactions (ADRs) reporting by health care professionals (HCPs) plays a vital role in pharmacovigilance (PV). However, under-reporting remain a major challenge worldwide, especially in low and middle-income countries, including Lao PDR. This cluster-randomized controlled trial evaluated the effectiveness of the modified TaWai mobile app for ADR reporting compared with the usual practice in hospitals.
