Accurately capturing the spatiotemporal dynamics of regional forest cover and its response to climate change is of great significance for forest resource management and ecological environment protection. We used statistical methods such us linear regression and correlation analysis, as well as remote sensing change monitoring to investigate the spatiotemporal dynamics of forest cover and its response to climate change from 2000 to 2022 in Shandong Province based on MODIS VCF products and meteorological data. The results showed that the forest co-verage and forest area in Shandong Province increased from 43.

Niche conservatism is essential for predicting the risk of alien species invasions. Currently, the changes of climate niche of during its invasion in China are still not clear. Using principal component analysis, we examined the climate niche shifts of during its invasion and analyzed its potential distribution in China.

Methods: Using the standardized Global Burden of Disease (GBD) methodologies, we evaluated the burden of epilepsy in 204 countries and regions from 1990 to 2021, aiming to derive a more precise representation of the health burden posed by epilepsy by considering four distinct types of epidemiological data, namely the prevalence, incidence, mortality, and DALYs. The presented data were meticulously estimated and displayed both as numerical counts and as age-standardized rates per 100,000 persons of the population.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the dosiomics features of the interplay between CT density and dose distribution in lung SBRT plans, and to develop a model to predict treatment failure following lung SBRT treatment.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted involving 179 lung cancer patients treated with SBRT at the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) between October 2007 and June 2022. Features from the CT image, Biological Effective Dose (BED) and five interaction matrices between CT and BED were extracted using radiomics mathematics.
