Background And Aims: The cosmopolitan Botrychium lunaria group belong to the most species rich genus of the family Ophioglossaceae and was considered to consist of two species until molecular studies in North America and northern Europe led to the recognition of multiple new taxa. Recently, additional genetic lineages were found scattered in Europe, emphasizing our poor understanding of the global diversity of the B. lunaria group, while the processes involved in the diversification of the group remain unexplored.

Our objective was to describe the relationship between neighbourhood marginalization and COVID-19 outcomes among patients presenting to Canadian emergency departments (ED).
Methods: We conducted an observational study among consecutive COVID-19 patients recruited from 47 hospitals participating in the Canadian COVID-19 ED Rapid Response Network (CCEDRRN) between March 3, 2020, and July 24, 2022.
Article Synopsis
- Clinical guidelines for medications treating gambling disorder are unclear, prompting a network meta-analysis to compare their efficacy and tolerability.
- The study reviewed 22 randomized controlled trials, ultimately analyzing 16 with nearly 1,000 participants, focusing on gambling symptom severity and quality of life as efficacy outcomes.
- Nalmefene showed the most promise in reducing gambling severity and improving quality of life, although it and naltrexone had higher dropout rates due to side effects, indicating lower tolerability compared to placebo.
