The prospective, non-interventional PERFORM study describes and analyzes the effectiveness of palbociclib in combination with endocrine therapy (aromatase inhibitor or fulvestrant) as first-line treatment for patients with locally advanced or metastatic HR+/HER2- breast cancer in the real-world setting in Germany and Austria. PERFORM will reflect current patient characteristics and routine treatment patterns including treatment sequences and time to subsequent (chemo)therapy. Besides, second-line treatment effectiveness and patient-relevant end points such as longitudinal patient-reported outcome measurements beyond disease progression will be analyzed. Accounting for the heterogenous real-world patient population, data on clinicopathologic subgroups underrepresented in clinical trials such as elderly or male will be analyzed. Taken together, PERFORM will close knowledge gaps from clinical trials in real world.

From moral exemplar to underperformer? The double-edged sword of ethical leadership for leader in-role and extra-role performance.

Given the overall positive influence ethical leaders have on their followers' performance, the literature has largely assumed that ethical leadership also facilitates the performance of leaders themselves. We challenge this assumption by adopting a within-person perspective to reveal more nuanced relationships between distinct forms of daily ethical leadership and daily leader performance. Building on the affect theory of social exchange (Lawler, 2001), we develop a theoretical model that examines the diverging effects of daily promotion- and prevention-focused ethical leadership on daily leader performance through the reciprocal influence of followers' affective reactions.

Background Detection and segmentation of lung tumors on CT scans are critical for monitoring cancer progression, evaluating treatment responses, and planning radiation therapy; however, manual delineation is labor-intensive and subject to physician variability. Purpose To develop and evaluate an ensemble deep learning model for automating identification and segmentation of lung tumors on CT scans. Materials and Methods A retrospective study was conducted between July 2019 and November 2024 using a large dataset of CT simulation scans and clinical lung tumor segmentations from radiotherapy plans.

Cytologically indeterminate thyroid nodules (Bethesda class III or IV) carry a 10-40% risk of malignancy. Diagnostic lobectomies are frequently performed but negative surgeries incur unnecessary costs on the healthcare system, potential complications, and negative impacts on quality of life. Molecular tests (MTs) have been developed to reduce unnecessary surgeries.

Skin corrosion assessment is an essential toxicity end point that addresses safety concerns for topical dosage forms and cosmetic products. Previously, skin corrosion assessments required animal testing; however, differences in skin architecture and ethical concerns regarding animal models have fostered the advancement of alternative methods such as and models. This study aimed to develop deep learning (DL) models based on recurrent neural networks (RNNs) for classifying skin corrosion of chemical compounds based on chemical language notation, molecular substructure, physicochemical properties, and a combination of these three properties called conjoint fingerprints.
