Chemotherapy resistance and risk stratification in gestational trophoblastic neoplasia: A systematic review and network meta-analysis. [PDF]
Higher pretreatment β‐hCG, greater tumor burden, higher FIGO stage/score, and choriocarcinoma were associated with higher chemoresistance risk in gestational trophoblastic neoplasia. In exploratory network analyses, etoposide‐containing regimens showed lower predicted chemoresistance.

Tear Fluid Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide Levels Are Elevated in Glycerol Trinitrate-Induced Cluster Headache Attacks: Results From an Exploratory Study. [PDF]
Cluster headache (CH) is a severe primary headache disorder and the neuropeptide calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) has been shown to be elevated ictally and interictally. We investigated tear fluid CGRP levels during experimental cluster headache attacks and showed elevated CGRP levels during these headache attacks.

Blood Pressure Reduction Time Windows in Stroke: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background The optimal time windows for blood pressure reduction (BPR) treatment in patients with stroke remain controversial. This systematic review and network meta‐analysis (NMA) evaluates the efficacy of different BPR time windows across stroke subtypes and assesses associated safety outcomes.

Cohesive GTN model for ductile fracture simulation
The present work addresses the micromechanical modeling and the simulation of crack initiation and propagation in ductile materials failing by void nucleation, growth and coalescence. A cohesive–volumetric approach is used and the overall material behavior is characterized both by a hardening bulk constitutive law and a softening surface traction ...

The Effect of Intensive Blood Pressure Reduction on Perihematomal Edema After Intracerebral Hemorrhage: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]
This systematic review and meta‐analysis suggests that intensive blood pressure reduction is associated with modestly smaller approximately 24‐h perihematomal edema expansion after spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage, supporting further standardized trials to clarify whether early edema attenuation contributes to clinical benefit.

A GTN-like Model for Plastic Porous Materials
An extended version of the well-known Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman (GTN) isotropic hardening model is presented in this paper. The yield function of the proposed constitutive model possesses the distinctiveness to explicitly depend upon the third stress invariant. The presented constitutive model is used to analyze the necking of a round tensile bar.
