Paediatric Drug Development in China: Current Status and Future Prospects.

For more than two decades, regulatory agencies throughout the world released guidelines, rules and laws to stimulate and assist in paediatric drug development. In 2014, the National Health and Family Planning Commission (now known as the National Health Commission, NHC) and five other departments in China jointly issued 'Several Opinions on Safeguarding Medication for Children', after which several policies and regulations were issued to implement the priority review and approval of paediatric medicinal products and support the development of new drugs, including new dosage forms and strengths, for children. A total of 172 special medicinal products for children were approved from 2018 to 2022.

Human papillomavirus vaccine-associated premature ovarian insufficiency and related adverse events: data mining of Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System.

We detected disproportionate reports of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) and related events, including amenorrhea, menstruation irregular, FSH increased, and premature menopause, following human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine from FDA Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). The signal was detected by the methods of Bayesian Confidence Propagation Neural Network (BCPNN) and Multi-item Gamma Poisson Shrinker (MGPS). When both methods detected a positive result, a signal was generated.
