In Europe, concentrations of ∆-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in cannabis resin (also known as hash) have risen markedly in the past decade, potentially increasing risks of mental health disorders. Current approaches to international drug monitoring cann...
BACKGROUND: Vancomycin is a renally eliminated, nephrotoxic, glycopeptide antibiotic with a narrow therapeutic window, widely used in intensive care units (ICU). We aimed to predict the risk of inappropriate vancomycin trough levels and appropriate d...
Handheld biosensors have attracted substantial attention for numerous applications, including disease diagnosis, drug dosage monitoring, and environmental sensing. This study presents a novel handheld biosensor based on a gradient grating period guid...

Continuous monitoring of anaesthetics infusion is demanded by anaesthesiologists to help in defining personalized dose, hence reducing risks and side effects. We propose the first piece of technology tailored explicitly to close the loop between anae...
The pharmacokinetic variability of lamotrigine (LTG) plays a significant role in its dosing requirements. Our goal here was to use noninvasive clinical parameters to predict the dose-adjusted concentrations (C/D ratio) of LTG based on machine learnin...
