A Case of Live Birth after Uterine Reconstruction for Recurrent Cornual Ectopic Pregnancy following IVF Treatment by Deivanayagam Maruthini, Vinay Sharma

“…We propose that, in those who intend to have further pregnancies after a cornual ectopic pregnancy, a sono-hysterography is possibly the best investigative tool to assess myometrial integrity. This case demonstrates that in women with areas of muscle weakness it is possible to successfully perform an interval elective reconstructive surgery on the uterus that can result in an uneventful pregnancy and birth.…”

Differences in spatiotemporal pressure and performance between Chinese and German elite youth football players during matches by Yapu Liang, Tianhe Li, Hansi Xu, Peng Zhang

“…The Mann–Whitney U test and Kruskal–Wallis H test were used to identify significant differences, with post hoc comparisons conducted where necessary.ResultsResults show that the German team consistently maintained greater D than the Chinese team (p < 0.001, d = 0.463), highlighting their superior spatial management and tactical adaptability.DiscussionGreater D was associated with enhanced offensive flexibility and defensive stability, allowing the German team to create space effectively and maintain structural integrity under pressure. In contrast, the Chinese team’s smaller D suggested limitations in spatial utilization and higher defensive engagement risks. …”

Substructural Identification of Flexural Rigidity for Beam-Like Structures by Ki-Young Koo, Jin-Hak Yi

“…This study proposes a novel substructural identification method based on the Bernoulli-Euler beam theory with a single variable optimization scheme to estimate the flexural rigidity of a beam-like structure such as a bridge deck, which is one of the major structural integrity indices of a structure. In ordinary bridges, the boundary condition of a superstructure can be significantly altered by aging and environmental variations, and the actual boundary conditions are generally unknown or difficult to be estimated correctly. …”
