Nicotine patches and e-cigarettes in pregnancy: A deep dive into risks and outcomes

Jan 16 2024 - Main article image changed from a picture of a generic pill, to that of a transmission electron micrograph of SARS-CoV-2 virus particles. This was actioned to avoid confusion from the generic pill being a similar color to molnupiravir - an antiviral not mentioned in this study. This study is on the use of a standard dose of Paxlovid which consists of multiple tablets pink and white in color.

Nov 30 2023 - Title changed as misleading "Alcohol consumption may have counteractive effects on heart disease risk" to "Study suggests a complex metabolic basis between alcohol consumption and CVD". The original headline "Alcohol consumption may have counteractive effects on heart disease risk, study finds" does not accurately reflect the findings of the study. The research primarily identified 60 metabolites associated with long-term alcohol consumption and their complex relationship with cardiovascular disease (CVD). It didn't conclude that alcohol consumption has counteractive effects on heart disease risk but rather showed a complex metabolic basis between alcohol consumption and CVD.

Nov 16 2023 - To address the concerns raised by the research team, the following changes should be made to the news article "Study highlights risks of high-dose naloxone in opioid overdose response": Correction of Administration Route: Replace all instances where 'intravenous naloxone' is mentioned with 'intranasal naloxone'. This error appears in the first paragraph, twice in the results section, and in the conclusion. Clarification of Naloxone Dosage: In the introduction and background, the term 'low-dose naloxone' should be corrected to 'standard dose naloxone'. The study compares standard dose naloxone with high-dose naloxone, and the current wording inaccurately suggests a focus on low-dose naloxone. Accurate Representation of the Research Team: Amend the 'About the study' section to reflect that the two members from Tennessee Harm Reduction were key members of the research team, not merely consultants. Correcting Efficacy Information: Remove or correct the statement claiming intranasal naloxone is less effective, as this does not align with the findings of the study. These revisions will ensure the article aligns accurately with the original research. The research team has offered their assistance for any further clarification required.
