An ETH‐LAD trip with unfavourable consequences: A case report

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Numerous analogues of the psychedelic and internationally controlled hallucinogen LSD have been described; however, only a limited number have been systematically investigated. This report presents the first case with an analytically confirmed ingestion of ETH‐LAD (6‐ethyl‐6‐nor‐lysergic acid diethylamide), the N‐ethyl derivative of LSD.

Epigenetic Predictors of Smoking: External Validation and Association With Smoking‐Related Cancer Risk

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tobacco smoking has a strong influence on DNA methylation (DNAm), enabling the development of DNAm‐based smoking predictors, yet external evaluations of these have remained limited. We aimed to assess six DNAm‐based smoking predictors in a large sample of middle‐aged and older Australians for (i) their accuracy and reliability, and (ii) their ...
