    Abstract Background: In October 2018, the Conference of the Parties of the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC or Convention) adopted its first decision on novel and emerging tobacco products, including heated tobacco products (HTPs). The decision remains ambiguous, e.g. by making a distinction between tobacco sticks and HTP devices. Against this background, the article seeks to answer two interrelated questions: whether and to what extent HTPs are covered by the FCTC, and whether regime provided by the Convention is suitable for their regulation.
    Results: HTPs need to be classified under the FCTC as tobacco products. The distinction made by the Conference of the Parties between sticks and devices leads however to unsatisfactory results as it creates loopholes in tobacco control standards existing at the international level. A better approach, as argued in this article, is to conceptualize the notion of 'tobacco products' in functional terms as a combination of both a device and stick. While subjecting HTPs to all FCTC disciplines is, in light of our current scientific knowledge, a rational approach, such classification can be modified in the future once a sufficient amount of new evidence on their risk profile is collected. Any decision on the optimal regulatory model for HTPs will need to take into account not only health risks and potential benefits for individual users, but also the specific systemic concerns (e.g. HTPs as a gateway product). The state of scientific research is however not the only factor that will determine the fate of HTPs under the Convention. What is equally important is a conceptualization of the FCTC's objectives. If a complete eradication of the tobacco epidemic is the ultimate goal, reduced levels of risk may not be enough to justify the different (i.e. more lenient) regulatory regime for HTPs.
    Conclusions: The Conference of the Parties should clarify the definition of tobacco products in light of recent changes in the market. When designing the regulatory regime for HTPs under the FCTC in the future, one has to consider not only scientific evidence but also pay attention to the objective of the Convention (or more generally to the values that underlie the current tobacco control paradigm).

    Abstract Questions and research method The paper asks two interrelated questions: (i) whether (and to what extent) heated tobacco products (HTPs) are covered by the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC), and (ii) whether legal regime provided by the FCTC is suitable in a long-term perspective for regulation of HTPs. The paper relies in its analysis on standard legal research methods (i.e. textual and sociological). Background In October 2018, the Conference of the Parties (COP) adopted its first decision on novel and emerging tobacco products, including HTPs. Unfortunately, the decision has left many legal questions unanswered. For example, the preamble to the decision states that HTPs ‘are tobacco products’ subject to the FCTC provisions. However, at the same time, its paragraph 5 not only remains obscure as to the applicability of the FCTC but also makes a distinction between HTPs and the ‘devices designed for consuming such products’, reinforcing the idea that the devices need separate (and potentially looser) regulations. Results The paper argues that HTPs indeed need to be legally classified as tobacco products under the FCTC. The paper also submits that the distinction made by the COP between HTPs and devices leads to unsatisfactory results as it creates loopholes in tobacco control standards. In addition, the paper contends, when addressing the normative question of suitability of the FCTC disciplines, that the answer depends not only on scientific evidence relating to health risks posed by HTPs, but also on the conceptualization of the FCTC ultimate objective-(s).

    Abstract Hybrid materials combining organic and inorganic compounds used as scaffolds are highly beneficial in bone regeneration. In this study, we successfully produced by blend electrospinning poly(3-hydroxybutyric acid-co-3-hydrovaleric acid) (PHBV) scaffolds enriched with hydroxyapatite (HA) particles to biomimic bone tissue for improved and faster regeneration processes. The morphology, fiber diameters, and composition of the scaffolds were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques followed by focused ion beam (FIB) sectioning to verify HA particles integration with PHBV fibers.
