Prescribing competence: The pros and cons of different methods for assessment

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Evaluating a medical graduate’s competence in rational prescribing is challenging. With the aim to guide and inspire teachers, this narrative review explores different methods that can be used to assess prescribing competence. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages, and thus a mix of different assessment methods is needed throughout the ...

Evaluating the (comparative) safety profile of the novel oral polio vaccine type 2 using individual case safety reports in VigiBase

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Novel oral polio vaccine type 2 (nOPV2) was used under the WHO emergency use listing for circulating vaccine‐derived polio virus (cVDPV) outbreaks from 2021 to 2023. We assessed nOPV2 adverse events following immunization (AEFIs) and compared its safety profile to other vaccines using VigiBase.

Risk of venous thromboembolism after SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccination—Evidence from genome‐wide association study and population‐based observational study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim We aimed to investigate whether genetic variation is associated with venous thromboembolism after immunization with SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccines. Methods We conducted a genome‐wide association study (GWAS) on cases of venous thromboembolism within 42 days after SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccination, recruited from reports of adverse drug reactions sent to the Swedish ...

Nanomaterial‐based immune therapeutic strategies in neurodegenerative diseases

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review highlights the immunomodulatory potential of nanomaterials (NMs) in treating neurodegenerative diseases (NDs). It focuses on their roles in regulating innate and adaptive immune responses to maintain immune homeostasis. By providing insights into these mechanisms, the review lays the groundwork for innovative NMs therapeutic strategies to ...
