Land surface temperature (LST) serves as a crucial indicator for evaluating the effects of different environmental factors on the ecosystem, including alterations in land use, climate variations, and emissions of greenhouse gases. This comprehensive study used remote sensing data to analyze changes and effects of land use/land cover (LULC) on LST in Tay Ninh province, Vietnam, from 1988-2023. Landsat satellite images in 1988, 2004, and 2023 were preprocessed and supervised classification on ArcGIS 10.8 software. The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Normalized Difference Built-up Index (NDBI), and LST in the study area were determined using the Landsat image data. The classification results showed a decrease in the area of agricultural land, barren land, and forest classes by 8.30%, 8.82%, and 15.93%, respectively, from 1988 to 2023. Conversely, the area of built-up and waterbodies classes indicated an increase of 33.00% and 0.06%, respectively, during the same period. In terms of LST, the study area exhibited temperature ranges of approximately 19.75 °C-35.28 °C, 26.26 °C-46.33 °C, and 21.05 °C-40.60 °C in 1988, 2004, and 2023, respectively. Contribution Index (CI) and multiple regression analysis evaluated the relationship between land cover, LST, NDVI, and NDBI. The regression analysis preliminary showed a negative correlation between NDVI and LST, while a positive correlation was observed between NDBI and LST. The CI of built-up areas has increased from 0.01 in 1988 to 0.77 in 2023, which shows that this coating has contributed to rising temperatures in the study area. Meanwhile, the forest and water body classes have consistently negative CI throughout the period 1988-2023, which has contributed to the decrease in temperature. This comprehensive study provides policymakers with valuable information regarding LULC and LST, instilling confidence in developing effective policies for land resource management.

Introduction: Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common cancer in men worldwide, with significant incidence and mortality, particularly in Mexico, where diagnosis at advanced stages is common. Early detection through screening methods such as digital rectal examination and prostate-specific antigen testing is essential to improve outcomes. Despite current efforts, compliance with prostate screening (PS) remains low due to several barriers.

Background: Unplanned readmission, a measure of surgical quality, occurs after 4.8% of primary total knee arthroplasties (TKA). Although the prediction of individualized readmission risk may inform appropriate preoperative interventions, current predictive models, such as the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS-NSQIP) surgical risk calculator (SRC), have limited utility.

Purpose: To evaluate the predictive accuracy of various machine learning (ML) statistical models in forecasting postoperative visual acuity (VA) outcomes following macular hole (MH) surgery using preoperative optical coherence tomography (OCT) parameters.

Methods: This retrospective study included 158 eyes (151 patients) with full-thickness MHs treated between 2017 and 2023 by the same surgeon and using the same intraoperative surgical technique. Data from electronic medical records and OCT scans were extracted, with OCT-derived qualitative and quantitative MH characteristics recorded.
