Stroke is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, and dietary patterns have emerged as a significant modifiable factor in stroke prevention. The Mediterranean diet, characterized by high intake of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, olive oil, and fish, has been widely recognized for its cardiovascular benefits. However, its specific impact on stroke risk requires further elucidation.

Despite the availability of a wide range of treatments, many patients experience primary non-response, secondary loss of response, or adverse events, limiting the overall effectiveness of current therapies. Clinical trials often report response rates below 60%, partly due to stringent inclusion criteria.

- Isolated vaginal vault recurrence of endometrial cancer can sometimes be treated effectively with rescue radiotherapy, but surgery is often preferred for patients who have previously undergone radiation.
- Vesicovaginal fistulas (VVFs) can develop following surgical interventions due to damaged pelvic tissue from prior treatments, complicating the patient's recovery and management.
- The case study presents a woman who experienced a VVF after robotic surgery for endometrial cancer, ultimately benefiting from a conservative treatment approach involving prolonged catheterization and laser therapy, which successfully resolved the fistula.
Nitridophosphates have emerged as promising host compounds in the field of solid-state lighting. Their industrial relevance has increased significantly, mainly due to recent advances in synthetic approaches under medium-pressure (MP) conditions, including ammonothermal synthesis and hot isostatic pressing (HIP). In this study, we report on the synthesis and characterization of the quaternary representatives CaLiPN (x=2, 2.

In this case study, we used 55 years (1968-2022) of 5-min precipitation data from Mahantango Creek, a long-term experimental agricultural watershed in east-central Pennsylvania, United States, to examine annual and seasonal changes in subhourly (15-min), hourly, and daily rainfall extremes. Specifically, we evaluated temporal trends in the magnitude and frequency of subhourly, hourly, and daily rainfall extremes.
