Blue care: a systematic review of blue space interventions for health and wellbeing

This systematic review of blue space interventions (BSIs) found evidence suggesting potential benefits for mental health and psychosocial wellbeing, particularly in the short term. However, the studies were methodologically limited by small sample sizes, heterogeneous interventions, and short-term follow-up, making it difficult to draw definitive conclusions about the effectiveness of BSIs.

Single-cell analysis of human ovarian cortex identifies distinct cell populations but no oogonial stem cells

This single-cell analysis of the human ovarian cortex identified six major cell populations: oocytes, granulosa cells, immune cells, endothelial cells, perivascular cells, and stromal cells. The study found no evidence of oogonial stem cells and suggests that previously identified "OSCs" are likely perivascular cells misidentified due to antibody cross-reactivity.

The impact of COVID-19 on the undergraduate medical curriculum

The COVID-19 pandemic forced medical schools to adopt online learning platforms, like Zoom, for lectures and discussions. Early findings suggest positive student engagement with webinars and online resources, and the shift to online open-book examinations is seen as a potential way to reduce student anxiety.

Key to the females of Afrotropical Anopheles mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae)

This paper presents an updated pictorial key for identifying adult female Anopheles mosquitoes in the Afrotropical region. It revises a 1987 version to include newly described species, particularly highlighting the addition of Anopheles stephensi, a malaria vector recently detected in Africa. While primarily morphological, the key acknowledges the need for complementary methods in identifying species complexes.
