“…Highlighting the expansion of combination TT and IT options available as first-line agents for patients with metastatic clear cell RCC, the results from 2 clinical trials have been reported in the brief time since this article was initially prepared. 27 , 28 Lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab 28 and nivolumab plus cabozantinib 27 combinations have both demonstrated significantly improved OS compared with sunitinib alone. There is a wide array of highly effective options currently available in this disease setting.…”

Key Points Question What is the comparative effectiveness of first-line targeted therapy, immunotherapy, and combination therapy in a real-world cohort of patients with metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma? Findings In this propensity-matched cohort study of 5872 patients treated in real-world clinical practice, first-line immunotherapy and combination therapy were associated with improved overall survival compared with first-line targeted therapy. Meaning This study suggests that clinical trial findings demonstrating an overall survival benefit associated with first-line immunotherapy-based regimens compared with targeted therapy are generalizable to a broader population of patients.

“…The balance between the loss in energy due to the stretching of polymer ligands and the gain in energy due to polymer segregation in the micelle core determined the number, the dimensions, and the organization of the micelles on the NP surface. [23][24][25] For NPs with non-spherical shapes, e.g., nanocubes, [26] triangular prisms, [27] or nanodumbells, [28] the site-specific NP surface curvature plays an important role in patch formation. Polymer patches formed on regions with a higher surface curvature, that is, on the vertices of triangular prisms, tips of nanodumbells, and vertices and edges of nanocubes.…”

Helicoidal Patterning of Nanorods with Polymer Ligands

et al. 2019

Chiral packing of ligands on the surface of nanoparticles (NPs) is of fundamental and practical importance, as it determines how NPs interact with each other and with the molecular world. Here, for gold nanorods (NRs) capped with end-grafted nonchiral polymer ligands, we show a new mechanism of chiral surface patterning. Under poor solvency conditions, an originally smooth polymer layer segregates into helicoidally organized surface-pinned micelles (patches). The unique helicoidal morphology is dictated by the polymer grafting density and the ratio of the polymer ligand length-to-nanorod radius, while outside this specific parameter space, small random and shish-kebob patches, as well as a uniformly thick polymer layer are formed. We characterize polymer surface morphology by the theoretical and experimental state diagrams. The helicoidally organized polymer patches on the NR surface can be used as a template for the helicoidal organization of other NPs, masked synthesis on the NR surface, as well as the exploration of new NP self-assembly modes.

“…This result can be attributed to the fact that the drivers within this age group are not permitted to hold a driver's license according to Iraqi rules stating that the minimum age for getting a driver's license is 18. Notably, the number of RTAs obviously declines with age, mainly due to the limited number of trips that individuals in this age group make [28]. The trend timeline in Figure 4(a) displays a peak of RTAs in midnight.…”

The current study focuses on disclosing the types and causes of traffic events in the Sulaymaniyah governorate and their association with driver implications. The study was conducted between September 2019 and August 2020 in cooperation with the General Directorate of Traffic. A total of 573 traffic accident forms were directly collected at the site of crush events. The result shows that the collision type of Road Traffic Accidents (RTAs) is the most frequent type, accounting for 64.6% of the total. Higher incidence of RTAs was recorded in pickup, taxi, and motorcycle automobiles than in private cars. The analysis showed that the driver's faults are responsible for 81.4% of RTAs followed by road issues, mechanical car faults, and environmental factors which were responsible for 15%, 2.4%, and 1.2%, respectively. The most important driver factors accountable for RTAs were overspeeding, low level of education, gender, young age, and alcohol intake. Driver age group 19-33 is highly associated with RTAs with the peak occurring at the age of 21 years.
