Long-term effect of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin in recurrent platinum-resistant ovarian cancer: а clinical case by I. A. Pokataev, A. S. Tyulyandina, L. V. Chitia, S. A. Tyulyandin

“…Chemotherapy is a main treatment for recurrent OC. In Russia, the rate of platinum-resistant recurrences after first-line chemotherapy is more than 50 %, which may be due to the high extent of a tumor process at the moment of diagnosis, to the low rate of optimal cytoreductive interventions, and to non-optimal treatment. …”

Measuring and Analyzing the Spatiotemporal Evolution of Agricultural Green Total Factor Productivity on the Tibetan Plateau (2002–2021) by Mengmeng Zhang, Jianyu Xiao, Chengqun Yu

“…The main findings are as follows: (1) AGTFP in Tibet rose overall from 0.949 in 2002 to 1.068 in 2021, with a compound annual growth rate of 0.78%, yet remained below the national average; (2) significant regional heterogeneity emerged, with three typical evolution patterns identified: continual improvement (Nagqu, Qamdo), stable fluctuation (Lhasa, Xigazê), and risk of decline (Lhoka, Nyingchi, Ngari); (3) gains in pure technical efficiency were the primary driver of AGTFP growth, while insufficient scale efficiency was a key constraint; (4) AGTFP exhibited a “convergence–divergence–reconvergence” dynamic, with interregional disparities widening but structural patterns stabilizing; and (5) interregional inequality was the main source of overall disparity—its importance grew over the study period, with the largest gap observed between agrarian and pastoral zones. …”
