Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery in the Era of Robotics: Evolution, Eclipse, or Equilibrium?
Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Minimally invasive colorectal surgery has undergone a remarkable transformation over the past three decades. Laparoscopy, once viewed with skepticism, is now firmly established as a standard approach, supported by robust randomized trials demonstrating oncologic safety and improved recovery compared to open surgery.

Urban Atlas, land use modelling and spatial metric techniques [PDF]
Recently, through the GMES program of ESA the Urban Atlas dataset was released. The Urban Atlas is providing pan-European comparable land use and land cover data for Large Urban Zones with more than 100.000 inhabitants as defined by the Urban Audit.

The village and the city: a diagnostic study of the spatial embedding patterns in villages absorbed by cities in Bahrain [PDF]
, 2009 During the growth of cities villages are frequently absorbed into the fabric of that conurbation. But what are the consequences of this? To what extent and how well do these villages become part of the overall fabric of the city?

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.: In this work, Voxel‐SLAM (simultaneous localization and mapping) is introduced: a complete, accurate, and versatile LiDAR (light detection and ranging) ‐inertial SLAM system consisting of five modules: initialization, odometry, local mapping (LM), loop closure (LC), and global mapping (GM), all employing the same map representation, an adaptive voxel

Spatial Structure and Urban Commuting [PDF]
, 1992 This paper examines the relationship between urban structure and commuting behavior. Analyzing the 1980 journey-to-work data for the Los Angeles region, this paper has shown that polycenteric density functions fit the actual urban structure better than the conventional monocentric model.

High-level consumer services in polycentric urban regions - hospital care and higher education between duplication and complementarity [PDF]
In many European countries, territorial development strategies identify the development potential of so-called polycentric urban regions: regions in which a multitude of more or less similar-sized, formerly independent and distinct cities are located ...

Metric and topo-geometric properties of urban street networks: some convergences, divergences, and new results [PDF]
, 2007 The theory of cities, which has grown out of the use of space syntax techniques in urban studies, proposes a curious mathematical duality: that urban space is locally metric but globally topo-geometric.
