The spontaneous reporting system for cases of suspected side effects is a central instrument for detecting possible side effects after a pharmaceutical preparation has received marketing authorization. It provides important information (signals) on the occurrence of rare, previously unknown side effects, on increases in the frequency of known side effects that may also be due to quality defects, or on changes in the type or severity of known side effects. In recent decades, this system has made a significant contribution to the identification of drug-related risks that only arise upon widespread use following approval and to the introduction of appropriate measures to minimize risk.

Research progress of femoral head necrosis in HIV-infected patients.

Ann Med

December 2025

Department of Joint and Sports Medicine, Zhongnan Hospital, Wuhan University, Wuhan, China.

As life expectancy among patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) increases, a growing number of complications have been observed. This population displays an elevated risk of ischemic necrosis of the femoral head in comparison to the general population, which may be attributed to HIV infection, antiretroviral medication use, and hormone application. Patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) who also have necrosis of the femoral head tend to present at an earlier age, with a rapid disease progression and a high incidence of bilateral onset.

Introduction: Fabry disease (FD) is a rare lysosomal storage disorder that is associated with pain and progressive damage to the renal, cardiac, and cerebrovascular systems. Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) is one of the treatment options for FD and the most recently approved ERT agent, pegunigalsidase alfa, has shown clinical efficacy in three phase 3 clinical trials of adults with FD: BALANCE, BRIDGE, and BRIGHT. Recent published guidelines support the mapping of health utility state data to the EuroQol-5 Dimension-3 Level (EQ-5D-3L) index to align with the preferred methodology used by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE).

Posttraumatic growth is essential for understanding how individuals process trauma and adapt psychologically in the aftermath of seismic events. This study aims to explore the mediating effects of resilience, self-efficacy, and positive childhood memories on the relationship between fear of earthquakes and post-traumatic growth among survivors of the 2023 Türkiye earthquake (N = 423). The results of a multi-mediation analysis indicated that earthquake fear indirectly influenced post-traumatic growth through resilience, self-efficacy, and positive childhood memories.

Valorization of Cocoa and Peach-Palm Wastes for the Production of Amylases by Pleurotus pulmonarius CCB19 and Its Application as an Additive in Commercial Detergents.

Appl Biochem Biotechnol

January 2025

Department of Biological Sciences, UESC - Universidade Estadual de Santa Cruz, Rodovia Jorge Amado, Km 16, Ilhéus, BA, 45662-900, Brazil.

In the context of agribusiness, the agricultural and livestock sectors generate a considerable quantity of waste on a daily basis. Solid-state fermentation (SSF) represents a potential alternative for mitigating the adverse effects of residue accumulation and for producing high-value products such as enzymes. Pleurotus pulmonarius is capable of producing a number of commercial enzymes, including amylases.
