Precision Forestry is an emerging approach that uses digital technologies for data-driven decision-making in environmental management. Traditional methods for assessing tree risk are often subjective and focus on individual trees using mechanical approaches. The #SecureTree model offers an innovative alternative by deploying sensors to measure biophysical parameters like temperature, humidity, and acceleration.

Methods: A single-center quality care study was designed to retrospectively identify consecutive radiology request forms for computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and conventional radiography examinations. One radiologist scored the requests using the RI-RADS.
Article Synopsis
- - Vulvar melanoma, while rare, is the second most common vulvar cancer, making up 2% of melanomas in women, and it has unique characteristics compared to typical skin melanomas, including different risk factors and a higher chance of recurrence and multifocality.
- - A case study of a 44-year-old patient highlighted two primary vulvar melanomas on opposite sides, which appeared flat but had distinct features; this suggests that vulvar melanomas may stem from a multifocal disorder of melanocytes in the mucosal tissue.
- - Key risk factors for vulvar melanoma differ from those for skin melanoma, primarily involving chronic inflammation, genetic factors, irritants, and viral infections, emphasizing the need for thorough inspections of the
Eyelid melanoma (EM) is a malignant neoplasm accounting for around 1% of eyelid malignancies. Because of its rarity, most of our knowledge of EM is currently based on studies of cutaneous melanomas located elsewhere. Accordingly, this study aimed to specifically evaluate EM characteristics, management strategies, and prognosis.

However, the relationship between obesity and RCC prognosis remains unclear. This systematic review aims to investigate the impact of different adipose tissue measurements on RCC behavior and prognosis.
