Experimental study on mechanical properties of S-RM with different rock block proportions in fault zone by Peng-fei Wang, Xue-yang Xing, Yong-cheng Jin, Jian-biao Bai, Chang-hong Li

“…During the process of increasing the RBP from 20 to 80%, the cohesion increases from 83.12 kPa to 119.38 kPa, and the friction angle increases from 6° to 11°. (4) When the RBP is low (20% and 40%), as the experiment progresses, a significant conjugate shear deformation zone will form within the S-RM sample, and block rock particles will migrate towards this area and undergo shear slip failure between particles. …”

Persistence with Early-Line Abatacept versus Tumor Necrosis Factor-Inhibitors for Rheumatoid Arthritis Complicated by Poor Prognostic Factors by Xue Han, Francis Lobo, Michael S. Broder, Eunice Chang, Sarah N. Gibbs, David J. Ridley, Irina Yermilov

“…In adjusted analyses, abatacept patients had a lower risk of discontinuing index treatment due to disease progression (0.3 \[95% confidence interval (CI): 0.1-0.6\], *P*=0.001). Among the subgroup of ACPA+ and/or RF+ patients (55 abatacept, 108 TNFis), unadjusted 12-month treatment persistence was greater (83.6% versus 64.8%, *P*=0.012) and median time to discontinuation was longer (961 days versus 581 days, *P*=0.048) in abatacept versus TNFi patients. …”
