Contrasting forest management strategies: Impacts on biodiversity and ecosystem services under changing climate and disturbance regimes.

Natural disturbances may compromise the past and ongoing efforts to increase carbon sequestration and halt biodiversity loss in boreal forests. Measures to minimize the effects of forest disturbances i.e.

Patient-reported Outcome Measure (PROM) Rand-36-item Health Survey for Gallstone Disease Patients Five Years Following Surgery: A Prospective Randomized Study.

Background/aim: There are no studies assessing the long-term quality of life (QoL) following three-dimensional laparoscopy cholecystectomy (3D-LC) in patients with cholelithiasis (Chole).

Patients And Methods: A cohort of 200 patients with Chole were randomized into 3D-LC or minilaparotomy cholecystectomy (MC) groups. RAND-36 survey was performed before randomization, four weeks and five years postoperatively.

First RAND-36-Item Health Survey in Three-dimensional Laparoscopy Cholecystectomy: A Prospective Randomized Study.

Background/aim: National healthcare organizers require feedback from patients to improve medical treatment methods. Three-dimensional laparoscopy cholecystectomy (3D-LC) is a modern technique in surgery. However, there are no studies with patient feedback from validated questionnaires assessing the postoperative treatment results in 3D-LC.

Future supply of boreal forest ecosystem services is driven by management rather than by climate change.

Forests provide a wide variety of ecosystem services (ES) to society. The boreal biome is experiencing the highest rates of warming on the planet and increasing demand for forest products. To foresee how to maximize the adaptation of boreal forests to future warmer conditions and growing demands of forest products, we need a better understanding of the relative importance of forest management and climate change on the supply of ecosystem services.
