ABSTRACT Background For patients with unfavorable intermediate or high risk localized prostate cancer receiving definitive radiotherapy, androgen deprivation therapy reduces recurrence and improves survival but is underutilized due to toxicity concerns. Patients who forgo initial ADT may later require salvage ADT.

Exploring the Use and Impact of Composite Materials in Robotics: A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Lightweight and high‐strength materials are important in robotics, as structural design impacts efficiency, payload capacity, and energy consumption. Composite materials, with their superior stiffness‐to‐weight ratios and multifunctional properties, offer clear advantages over conventional metals and polymers.
