Drug Marketing in Tropical Regions and Its Effect on Pharmacovigilance Awareness and Reporting
Abstract: Drug marketing practices in tropical regions present a complex interplay between pharmaceutical promotion, healthcare infrastructure limitations, and public health outcomes. These regions – characterized by high disease burden, socio-economic disparities, and diverse healthcare delivery systems – often experience unique challenges in ensuring safe and rational drug use. Aggressive and sometimes unregulated marketing strategies by pharmaceutical companies may significantly influence prescribing behavior, patient compliance, and, ultimately, pharmacovigilance systems. Pharmacovigilance, defined as …

Unveiling the Role of Lead Molecules in CADD: A Systematic Review
Abstract: The word "medicate plan" alludes to the objective creation of modern drugs. Arbitrary screening of engineered compounds, engineered of organically dynamic compounds based on actually happening drugs, amalgamation of basic analogs of actually happening lead particles, and usage of the bioisosteric hypothesis are a few of the strategies that have been utilized. As a result, the most recent drift in medicate plan is to either completely enhance a lead or …

Aquaculture Advancements Through Bioactive Molecules
Abstract: A wide range of seafood species – including fish, shellfish, squid, and bivalves – generate by-products that are often discarded as waste. However, these by-products hold great potential for developing innovative functional food products. Because there is limited opportunity to recycle natural resources, the loss of profit may be accompanied by the loss of ecological sustainability, given that the “wastes” of industrial processing can account for up to 75% of …

Mechanisms of Crystal Growth: From Spiral Steps to Surface Adhesion
Abstract: Crystal growth is a complex interplay between thermodynamic stability and kinetic processes, influenced heavily by the conditions under which crystallization occurs—particularly the degree of supersaturation. This abstract outline three principal regimes of solution-grown crystal growth: defect-driven, two-dimensional, and adhesive growth. At low supersaturation, growth is facilitated at surface defects, such as screw dislocations, where energy barriers to attachment are minimized. This results in the formation of spiraling steps that propagate …
