War drives forest fire risks and highlights the need for more ecologically-sound forest management in post-war Ukraine.

Since 24 February 2022, Ukraine has experienced full-scale military aggression initiated by the Russian Federation. The war has had a major negative impact on vegetation cover of war-affected regions. We explored interactions between pre-war forest management and the impacts of military activities in three of the most forested Ukrainian areas of interest (AOI), affected by the war.

Antifungal Activity and Effect of Plant-Associated Bacteria on Phenolic Synthesis of L.

Europe's forests, particularly in Ukraine, are highly vulnerable to climate change. The maintenance and improvement of forest health are high-priority issues, and various stakeholders have shown an interest in understanding and utilizing ecological interactions between trees and their associated microorganisms. Endophyte microbes can influence the health of trees either by directly interacting with the damaging agents or modulating host responses to infection.

Drivers of tropical forest loss between 2008 and 2019.

During December 2020, a crowdsourcing campaign to understand what has been driving tropical forest loss during the past decade was undertaken. For 2 weeks, 58 participants from several countries reviewed almost 115 K unique locations in the tropics, identifying drivers of forest loss (derived from the Global Forest Watch map) between 2008 and 2019. Previous studies have produced global maps of drivers of forest loss, but the current campaign increased the resolution and the sample size across the tropics to provide a more accurate mapping of crucial factors leading to forest loss.

A crowdsourced global data set for validating built-up surface layers.

Several global high-resolution built-up surface products have emerged over the last five years, taking full advantage of open sources of satellite data such as Landsat and Sentinel. However, these data sets require validation that is independent of the producers of these products. To fill this gap, we designed a validation sample set of 50 K locations using a stratified sampling approach independent of any existing global built-up surface products.

The Forest Observation System, building a global reference dataset for remote sensing of forest biomass.

Forest biomass is an essential indicator for monitoring the Earth's ecosystems and climate. It is a critical input to greenhouse gas accounting, estimation of carbon losses and forest degradation, assessment of renewable energy potential, and for developing climate change mitigation policies such as REDD+, among others. Wall-to-wall mapping of aboveground biomass (AGB) is now possible with satellite remote sensing (RS).

The aim: The purpose of the study was to analyze the results of the questionnaire of orthodontists and children's dentists, who provide dental care to the children of the Poltava region, about the importance of optimization of orthodontic care for children and improving the knowledge of doctors about the risk factors for the onset of orthodontic pathology.

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: Methods: Sociological (questionnaire), medical-statistical, bibliosemantic.

X-ray analysis of the mandible in patients with crossbite and mandibular displacement.

Objective: Introduction: Significant morphological and aesthetic disabilities of the face, observed during the formation of a cross bite in combination with the displacement of the mandible, prompt the doctors - orthodontists to study carefully the morphogenesis of this anomaly. The aim: Analysis of the mandible structure in patients with a cross bite and lower jaw displac ement based on the analysis of orthopantomograms.

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: For this study, the orthodontic examination of 20 patients, 18-22 years old, was made they complained about facial asymmetry, displacement of the lower jaw and a violation of the cosmetic centers.

Estimating the global distribution of field size using crowdsourcing.

There is an increasing evidence that smallholder farms contribute substantially to food production globally, yet spatially explicit data on agricultural field sizes are currently lacking. Automated field size delineation using remote sensing or the estimation of average farm size at subnational level using census data are two approaches that have been used. However, both have limitations, for example, automatic field size delineation using remote sensing has not yet been implemented at a global scale while the spatial resolution is very coarse when using census data.

Studying the skills attitudes on factors affecting dental health of children.

Objective: Introduction: Nowadays, the high level of dental morbidity among children is an urgent medical problem. Healthy lifestyles and sanitary-hygienic upbringing in the family is most important components of the formation of dental health of children. But in order to be able to teach their children, parents need to be themselves knowledgeable about hygiene and prevention, have the necessary skills and desire to instill it in their children.

The prognostic value of Ki67 in systemically untreated patients with node-negative breast cancer.

Aim: To evaluate the utility of Ki67 as a prognostic marker in a series of patients with node-negative breast cancer untreated with adjuvant systemic therapy.

Methods: The cohort consisted of 203 cases treated with breast conserving surgery and radiation only; median follow-up was 183 months (range 156-277 months). An immunohistochemical panel of oestrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), cytokeratin (CK)5/6 and Ki67 and human epidermal growth factor 2 in situ hybridization (HER2-ISH) was performed on the tumour samples.

HER2 testing in breast cancer: an overview of current techniques and recent developments.

Testing for HER2 positivity in breast cancer carries implications for prognosis and therapeutic response in patients. In recent times there have been numerous developments and refinements in the available technologies for HER2 testing. In addition to this, guidelines have been developed and modified in an attempt to improve reliability and accuracy of testing.

Characteristics of HER2-positive breast cancer diagnosed following the introduction of universal HER2 testing.

The aim of this study was to determine the impact of universal HER2 testing on the clinico-pathologic profile of HER2+ breast cancer. Data were extracted from breast cancer pathology reports spanning two periods: before (2003/4, n = 379), and after (2008/9, n = 560) the introduction of universal testing. In 2003/4, 43.

Familial concordance of breast cancer pathology as an indicator of genotype in multiple-case families.

The heterogeneity of multiple case breast cancer families that do not carry mutations in BRCA1 or BRCA2 (non-BRCA1/2 families) poses a challenge to the identification of breast cancer susceptibility genes. The aim of this study was to determine whether intrafamilial concordance in breast cancer pathology could identify subgroups of non-BRCA1/2 families with consistent genotypic features. Invasive breast cancers were reviewed from 84 individuals belonging to 30 multiple-case families; BRCA1 (n = 9), BRCA2 (n = 10), and non-BRCA1/2 (n = 11).

Diagnostic evaluation of papillary lesions of the breast on core biopsy.

The management of asymptomatic intraductal papillary lesions of the breast diagnosed on core biopsy poses a challenge for patients and clinicians, as the distinction between common benign lesions and atypical or malignant varieties may be difficult without formal excision. The aim of this study was to determine whether a combination of histopathologic and biomarker features could be used to accurately identify benign papillary lesions on core biopsy. An inclusive group of 127 excised papillary lesions was characterized by detailed histopathologic review and immunohistochemical staining for the basal markers cytokeratin 5/6 (CK5/6) and P63 and the proliferation marker Ki67.
