Clinical endpoints, such as overall survival, directly measure relevant outcomes. Surrogate endpoints, in contrast, are intermediate, stand-in measures of various tumour-related metrics and include tumour growth, tumour shrinkage, blood results, etc. Surrogates may be a time point measurement, that is, tumour shrinkage at some point (eg, response rate) or biomarker-assessed disease status, measured at given time points (eg, circulating tumour DNA, ctDNA).

Intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) represent a considerable impediment to female reproductive health. Despite ongoing debate regarding the optimally efficacious route of administration and dosage of stem cells for IUA treatment, human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UCMSCs) have emerged as a promising avenue for regenerative therapy. The present study aimed to investigate the potential effects of UCMSCs on IUAs and to further explore the most effective treatment route and dosages.

Design: We investigated the L1 accent of English migrants to Austria and monolingual English speakers in the United Kingdom in two inter-related studies.
Data: In Study 1, an accent-perception experiment, native English listeners rated the nativeness of the monolinguals' and bilinguals' L1 English productions of read sentences, using a 6-point scale, and subsequently commented on the accentual features associated with perceived non-nativeness.
