Wen-Wen Wu et al.

Summary: There is a shortage of pediatric drugs in mainland China, and the government has introduced policies to encourage pediatric drug development. The number of pediatric clinical trials has increased over the past decade, but there are disparities in research areas and institutional distribution. While China has made progress, there is still a significant gap in pediatric drug development and clinical trial quality compared to developed countries, with challenges in the pharmaceutical industry such as study duplication, lack of innovation, and unbalanced resource allocation.

Consent to research participation: understanding and motivation among German pupils

Jana Reetz et al.

Summary: The study evaluated a template consent form designed by the German-Research-Ethics-Committees to inform adolescents about research participation and investigated associated phenomena like therapeutic misconception and motives for research participation. The results showed that while participants generally had a good understanding of foundational research ethics concepts, there was susceptibility to therapeutic misconception. Motivational factors for research participation included own health concerns and pro-social considerations, while anticipation of pain lessened likelihood of participation. Trusted advice from others and data security were also important decisional influences.
