Investigating LiDAR Metrics for Old-Growth Beech- and Spruce-Dominated Forest Identification in Central Europe by Devara P. Adiningrat, Andrew Skidmore, Michael Schlund, Tiejun Wang, Haidi Abdullah, Marco Heurich

“…To determine the important LiDAR standard and structural metrics in identifying old-growth forests, multicollinearity analysis using the variance inflation factor (VIF) approach was applied to identify and remove metrics with high collinearity, followed by the random forest algorithm to rank which LiDAR standard and structural metrics are important in old-growth forest classification. …”

A high offset stem design does not increase stem migration under full weight bearing in cementless total hip arthroplasty: a model-based RSA study by Tobias Reiner, Robert Sonntag, Jan Philippe Kretzer, Michael Clarius, Eike Jakubowitz, Stefan Weiss, Stefan Kinkel, Tilman Walker, Tobias Gotterbarm, Timo Albert Nees

“…This study aimed to evaluate the primary and secondary stability of a cementless high-offset femoral component under full weight-bearing conditions using model-based RSA, comparing it with a standard offset stem in patients undergoing THA. Methods In this prospective, observational, single-center study, 42 patients with end-stage hip osteoarthritis underwent cementless primary THA using either a standard (SL-PLUS Standard) or a high-offset (SL-PLUS Lateral) cementless stem. …”
