Background: Bioanalysis plays a crucial role in the processes of drug development and drug discovery. It serves as an essential
component of toxicological evaluations, as well as pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies during the development of drugs. The bioanalysis procedure involves several stages, including sampling, sample preparation, analysis, calibration, and data evaluation and reporting. However, the development of bioanalytical methods presents a significant bottleneck in drug development. Furthermore, the validation of these methods is vital for accurately quantifying various analytes in biological samples. Method validation ensures the acceptability of assay performance and.........

Background: the study aimed to analyze the perceived stress level, the fear of accessing health care (i.e., from the pharmacy, hospital, general practitioner's office, dental office), and drug uptake during and after the COVID-19 lockdown. Methods: A prospective study was conducted on a convenience sample. There were included persons 18 years of age or older living in Bucharest. Data were collected through questionnaires administered by phone interviews during the COVID-19 lockdown (T1-May 2020), and four months after it (T2- September 2020). Results: Fifty-three participants were included. The stress level was statistically significantly higher in T1 than in T2 (p=0.011). Fear.......

The technology sector has undergone a significant industrial revolution as a result of the scientific understanding and practical application of artificial intelligence and (3D) printing, which were previously unimaginable. Applications can be found in a variety of field, including aerospace, architecture industry, automobile industry, engineering, chemical industry, military, fashion industry, dental and in healthcare. Particularly in the pharmaceutical industry, the 3DP approach has so far proven to be one of the most inventive technologies [1]. The International Standard Organisation (ISO) defines 3DP as "fabrication of objects through the deposition of a material using a print head, nozzle, or other printer technology." Three-dimensional printing is one of the methods for fabricating additive layers [3]. The internal 3D printing procedure entails two steps: (i) Direct software data transfer to printed structures; and.......

BACKGROUND: Breast cancer is an uncontrolled growth of epithelial cells that can be originating in ducts or lobes in the breast. Among the chemotherapy, Adriamycin, Cyclophosphamide, Trastuzumab, Tamoxifen, Carboplatin, Paclitaxel, Docetaxel, Letrozole, Anastrozole, etc are used to treat breast cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Our study was a Prospective Observational that was carried out at Omega Hospitals, Guntur. Data was collected by the patient or the patient representative or by studying the patient's profile through a questionnaire. The patient proforma included key information on the patient's demographics, past medical history, diagnostic tests, treatment, 2D Echo, safety profile, Mental health assessment, and quality of life. RESULTS: The collected data was transported to SPSS (version-28) for analysis. Out of 84 patients, 9 patients were seen with trastuzumab-induced cardiotoxicity. Of those 8 patients had reversible cardiotoxicity (88.88%) after ACE treatment and 1......
