Article Abstract
In recent years, there has been an increasing focus on the dynamics of material stock, that is, the basis of material flow in the entire ecosystem. With the gradual improvement of the global road network encryption project, the uncontrolled extraction, processing, and transportation of raw materials impose serious resource concerns and environmental pressure. Quantifying material stocks enable governments to formulate scientific policies because socio-economic metabolism, including resource allocation, use, and waste recovery, can be systematically assessed. In this study, OpenStreetMap road network data were used to extract the urban road skeleton, and nighttime light images were divided by watershed to construct regression equations based on geographical location attributes. Resultantly, a generic road material stock estimation model was developed and applied to Kunming. We concluded that (1) the top three stocks are stone chips, macadam, and grit (total weight is 380 million tons), (2) the proportion of asphalt, mineral powder, lime, and fly ash is correspondingly similar, and (3) the unit area stock decreases as the road grade declines; therefore, the branch road has the lowest unit stock.

Dynamic AI-assisted ipsilateral tissue matching for digital breast tomosynthesis.
Eur J Radiol
August 2025
Department of Radiology, Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA, USA.
Purpose: To evaluate whether AI-assisted ipsilateral tissue matching in digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) reduces localization errors beyond typical tumor boundaries, particularly for non-expert radiologists. The technology category is deep learning.
Materials And Methods: The study consisted of two parts.
Gaps in immunization coverage at school entry and after two years of school attendance among immigrant and refugee children in Ontario, Canada.

Background: Foreign-born children may face greater barriers to accessing routine immunizations in Canada or their country of birth, but provincial surveillance data on immigration status are lacking. Using our provincial immunization repository linked to administrative data, we assessed immunization coverage among immigrant and refugee children in Ontario, Canada, compared with Ontario-born children and identified factors associated with being up-to-date (UTD).
Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of children entering school during the 2012/13-2014/15 school years.
"Characterization of visual function parameters in relation to macular pigment optical density in a pediatric population".

September 2025
Department of Physics of Condensed Matter, Optics Area. Vision Research Group (CIVIUS), University of Seville, Avenida de la Reina Mercedes s/n (41012), Seville, Spain.
Purpose: To analyze the relationship between various visual function parameters (refractive status, visual acuity and contrast sensitivity) and macular pigment optical density (MPOD) values, as well as dietary intake of lutein and zeaxanthin in a pediatric population.
Methods: Thirty-six healthy White pediatric patients participated in this cross-sectional study conducted at the Optometry Clinic (Faculty of Pharmacy, Seville, Spain). MPOD values were measured using the MPSII (Macular Pigment Screener II).
Acute kidney injury as a predictor of infectious complications after mini-PCNL.

Department of Urology and Renal Transplantation, Policlinico Riuniti di Foggia University of Foggia Foggia Italy.
Objective: To investigate the incidence, risk factors and clinical consequences of acute kidney injury (AKI) following mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy (mini-PCNL), with particular focus on its association with postoperative infectious complications.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 496 adult patients who underwent mini-PCNL (22 Ch) between February 2020 and April 2025. AKI was defined according to KDIGO criteria as either a ≥ 1.
Assessing the ability of large language models to simplify lumbar spine imaging reports into patient-facing text: a pilot study of GPT-4.
Skeletal Radiol
September 2025
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Northwestern University, Chicago, IL, USA.
Objective: To assess the ability of large language models (LLMs) to accurately simplify lumbar spine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reports.
Materials And Methods: Patients who underwent lumbar decompression and/or fusion surgery in 2022 at one tertiary academic medical center were queried using appropriate CPT codes. We then identified all patients with a preoperative ICD diagnosis of lumbar spondylolisthesis and extracted the latest preoperative spine MRI radiology report text.
