Background/Objectives: Early melanoma management depends on rapid triage and definitive treatment. Image-enabled teledermatology, particularly teledermoscopy, may accelerate pathways without compromising safety. This review evaluated effects on timeliness, diagnostic performance, and initial prognostic severity at diagnosis. Methods: Following a preregistered PRISMA-2020 protocol, PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, and Scopus were searched from inception to 1 September 2025. Comparative clinical studies and service evaluations reporting melanoma-specific outcomes were eligible. Dual screening, duplicate data extraction, and risk-of-bias appraisal were performed; substantial clinical and methodological heterogeneity precluded quantitative meta-analysis, so findings were synthesized narratively. Results: Twelve studies met criteria. Front-end intervals consistently shortened: time to expert advice was ≈1 day and median time to first clinic was reduced by ~10 days versus conventional referral. Downstream milestones showed mixed translation, with time to excision and histology in several programs remaining ≈45–67 days, indicating capacity constraints beyond triage. Diagnostic safety was high where quantified: melanoma triage sensitivity approached ~99% with a false-negative rate near ~1.1%, and positive predictive value for suspected-melanoma referrals was ~45–50% in mature services. Selected observational comparisons suggested a ≈0.6 mm lower mean Breslow thickness and ~13-percentage-point higher in situ/T1 proportion in one TD network, although these findings are susceptible to selection and lead-time bias and are not consistent across all settings. Overall, teledermoscopy functioned as a “front-door accelerator,” with pathway gains being largest before surgical and pathology steps. Conclusions: Teledermatology/teledermoscopy reliably compresses referral-to-decision intervals and maintains high triage safety, with indications of stage migration toward thinner tumors at diagnosis. Integrating surgical and pathology capacity is essential to convert early advice into earlier definitive treatment.

The period of study in the online environment can be a very demanding trial for students and masters, especially for those who are not familiar with computer technology. This is largely due to a complex of factors that come from the changes to which they are subjected, such as: leaving the parental home and settling into another living environment (living in dormitories or other forms of accommodation) but also settling with an unfamiliar and very different educational environment from what they were familiar with. Along with all the changes occurring in the family and social plan, the students had to adapt to the educational system made exclusively online. Higher educa-tion institutions in Romania use, as a method of knowledge transmission, traditional learning methods, namely they use face-to-face lecture-type courses in a lecture hall or practical and ex-planatory activities in a seminar/laboratory room. The emergence of this pandemic forced higher education institutions to switch to an online teaching mode for all types of activities included in the educational process.

This article examines the changing social meanings of mining in Roșia Montană (Romania) from late state socialism to the period following the withdrawal of the Roșia Montană Gold Corporation (RMGC), which had proposed a large open-cast gold project there. The study uses an exploratory sequential mixed-methods design. It draws on seven semi-structured interviews with local clergy of different confessions, conducted in spring 2019, and on questionnaire surveys of 282 residents and 45 resettled former residents, carried out in 2020, before the site’s inscription on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2021. Perceptions are traced across four moments: the state-socialist period; the post-1989 years before the closure of the state mine; the RMGC investment phase; and its aftermath. Treating priests as local moral authorities and interpreters of change, the article finds that mining was remembered not merely as employment but as a source of order, prestige and collective identity under state socialism; that the post-1989 transition bred moral ambivalence; and that the RMGC years polarised the community. At the time of the research, perceptions remained divided but were increasingly articulated through memory, heritage and survival rather than extraction. The article shows how religious actors mediate collective memory and local responses to economic change in post-socialist mining communities.
