Agriculture is a vital industry in New York State, which ranks among the top-producing states for dairy, fruits, and several other commodities. As agriculture depends on the weather and specific climatic conditions, this sector faces extraordinary challenges as New York's climate changes. This chapter explores the many impacts of a changing climate on agriculture, the ways these impacts interact with other challenges that New York farmers and farmworkers face, and opportunities for the agriculture industry to adapt and build resilience.

- Abdominal pain is a common reason adults go to the emergency room, but there isn’t a set way to figure out what’s wrong.
- We looked at data from visits over 12 years to see how different age groups (like younger and older adults) were treated for this problem.
- More people are getting CT scans, especially older adults, but many still got X-rays, which aren't very good at finding serious issues.
Introduction: Sociodemographic disparities in colorectal cancer (CRC) surgical patients are known. Few studies, however, have examined the intersection of insurance type and median household income (MHI).
Methods: In this retrospective analysis of the National Inpatient Sample from 2000 to 2019, all CRC surgery patients between 50 and 64 y old were included.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to identify dermoscopic features that distinguish melanoma in situ (MIS) from atypical nevi (ATN) and assess the role of genomic biomarkers in patient management.
- Between 2018 and 2023, researchers evaluated 56 melanomas, analyzing various clinical and dermoscopic features along with melanoma-associated genomic biomarkers.
- The results indicated that dermoscopic features alone could not effectively differentiate MIS from ATN, but genomic testing improved the distinction between lower and higher-risk lesions for better clinical decision-making.
Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is one of the most common orthopedic procedures, and huge variation exists in the surgical technique. Single bundle hamstrings autograft reconstruction is a common method and has good clinical outcomes. A criticism of the hamstrings autograft is a small graft diameter, often less than 8-mm, which has been associated with increased re-rupture rates.
