Article Synopsis
  • Site-focused hydrogeological studies are crucial for conserving groundwater-dependent ecosystems (GDEs), as they reveal threats to groundwater and connected habitats.
  • The study in the Cooloola Sand Mass, a coastal dune system in southeast Queensland, characterizes groundwater systems using hydrogeochemical and isotopic methods, covering a range of GDEs like wetlands and streams.
  • Findings indicate complex groundwater interactions, with different recharge sources and mechanisms impacting the ecosystems, which are also threatened by factors such as over-abstraction and climate changes.

Background: Patients, their family members and caregivers have firsthand experiences of living with or supporting someone living with a disease or medical condition. This knowledge by experience cannot be replaced by the knowledge acquired by clinicians, researchers, or other professionals through study and/or work. The Therapies for Long COVID in non-hospitalised individuals (TLC) research project was funded in the UK by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) and UK Research and Innovation to investigate the impact of long COVID on affected individuals.

Post COVID-19 condition or long COVID is highly prevalent and often debilitating, with key symptoms including fatigue, breathlessness, and brain fog. There is currently a lack of evidence-based treatments for this highly complex syndrome. There is a need for clinical trial platforms to rapidly evaluate nonpharmacological treatments to support affected individuals with symptom management.

A core vulnerability in symbioses is the need for coordination between the symbiotic partners, which are often assumed to be closely physiologically integrated. We critically re-examine this assumed integration between symbionts in lichen symbioses, recovering a long overlooked yet fundamental physiological asymmetry in carbon balance. We examine the physiological, ecological, and transcriptional basis of this asymmetry in the lichen .

Article Synopsis
  • This text discusses a case of a 31-year-old man simultaneously diagnosed with Hairy Cell Leukemia (HCL) and a severe non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection, noting that the exact causes of this association are still unknown.
  • The patient presented symptoms like rash, low blood cell counts, and swollen lymph nodes, with both HCL and the infection diagnosed through advanced medical testing.
  • Despite successful chemotherapy for HCL, the infection persisted for six months before being effectively treated with a combination of antibiotics, underscoring the need for more research into the relationship between HCL and these types of infections for better management in the future.
