This review synthesizes significant recent studies emphasizing pharmacovigilance across diverse therapeutic areas. From the analysis of adverse events related to sophisticated novel therapies, such as Hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors and pembrolizumab, to investigations into drug safety in geriatric populations and the management of polypharmacy-related risks, these studies underscore the multifaceted nature of pharmacovigilance. Moreover, they highlight the utilization of post-marketing surveillance systems, including the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) and the Japan Adverse Drug Event Report (JADER) database, illustrating how continuous monitoring and data analysis can optimize patient care and enhance drug safety profiles. The review closes by addressing the broader implications of pharmacovigilance in clinical practice and public health, promoting a culture of safety and informed drug use.

Understanding the pathogenesis and diagnostic parameters of rabies virus, particularly through human autopsies, is crucial for advancing our knowledge of this lethal disease. This paper reviews several studies that delve into human autopsies of rabies cases, highlighting diagnostic methodologies and pathologic findings. Key findings include the localization of rabies viral antigens within the brain, insights into the neuronal impact through proteomics, and the challenges of immune response as evidenced by the persistent presence of the virus postmortem. These studies collectively provide a comprehensive understanding of rabies pathology, the efficacy of various diagnostic techniques, and the importance of immediate post-exposure vaccination.

This review synthesizes recent studies highlighting the utility, safety, and clinical protocols of RCA in various settings. Evidence suggests that RCA, when implemented under strict protocols, offers a promising alternative to systemic anticoagulation, especially for patients with specific risks such as hepatic impairment. However, challenges like citrate accumulation and electrolyte imbalances demand careful monitoring. Advancements in RCA protocols and technology, such as automated systems, continue to optimize its safety and efficacy, particularly in sensitive populations like pediatric patients and those undergoing specialized procedures like membrane therapeutic plasma exchange.
