BMC Pharmacology and Toxicology is welcoming submissions to a new collection on 'Drugs and gut microbiome interactions,' which is guest edited by Mohammad Taheri and Imran Khan.
In the past decade, our understanding of the human gut microbiome's role in mediating human health has emerged rapidly. From autoimmune disorders to psychiatric disorders, recent studies have shown the associations between the presence and abundance of various gut bacteria with health conditions. The gut microbiome's role as a crucial mediator of drug metabolism is increasingly recognised, with the interactions between drugs and the gut microbiome being a complex bidirectional system.
Studies have shown that gut microbiota can contribute and influence drug safety, pharmacodynamics, and bioavailability, bearing potential implications on drug discovery and formulation.is launching this collection to provide a platform for research on the broad areas relating to drugs and gut microbiota interactions. We welcome studies from diverse fields of research, including microbiology, pharmacology and toxicology, clinical medicine, and bioinformatics.

Health system characteristics and COVID-19 performance in high-income countries - BMC Health Services ResearchBackground The COVID-19 pandemic has shaken everyday life causing morbidity and mortality across the globe. While each country has been hit by the pandemic, individual countries have had different infection and health trajectories. Of all welfare state institutions, healthcare has faced the most immense pressure due to the pandemic and hence, we take a comparative perspective to study COVID-19 related health system performance. We study the way in which health system characteristics were associated with COVID-19 excess mortality and case fatality rates before Omicron variant. Methods This study analyses the health system performance during the pandemic in 43 OECD countries and selected non-member economies through three healthcare systems dimensions: (1) healthcare finance, (2) healthcare provision, (3) healthcare performance and health outcomes. Health system characteristics-related data is collected from the Global Health Observatory data repository, the COVID-19 related health outcome indicators from the Our World in Data statistics database, and the country characteristics from the World Bank Open Data and the OECD statistics databases. Results We find that the COVID-19 excess mortality and case fatality rates were systematically associated with healthcare system financing and organizational structures, as well as performance regarding other health outcomes besides COVID-19 health outcomes. Conclusion Investments in public health systems in terms of overall financing, health workforce and facilities are instrumental in reducing COVID-19 related mortality. Countries aiming at improving their pandemic preparedness may develop health systems by strengthening their public health systems.

Study: Over half of top selling Medicare drugs have low added therapeutic benefitBrand-name drugs cost two to three times more in the U.S. than in other countries, but many of the top-selling brand name drugs may provide little added therapeutic benefit. A new study led by researchers at Brigham and Women's Hospital, a founding member of Mass General Brigham, used public Medicare data to identify the 50 highest-selling brand-name drugs in 2020.
