After the publication of "Direct formation of hard-magnetic tetrataenite in bulk alloy castings" Ivanov et al., Advanced Science 10 (2022) 2204315, the authors identified a potential misinterpretation of the experimental data. Further work confirms that the original conclusions cannot be supported, and accordingly the paper is retracted.

Clinical Scenario: Following intense physical training, it is common for athletes to develop muscle soreness, muscle tightness and a sense of fatigue. Minimizing the time spent in this state is advantageous to limit time off from sport, potential injury and lack of mental focus.
Clinical Question: Does dry needling aid in post-training recovery in athletes?
Summary Of Key Findings: A search was performed for articles exploring the effect of dry needling on exercise/training recovery in athletes.
We present the first open-access, island-wide isotopic database (IsoMad) for modern biologically relevant materials collected on Madagascar within the past 150 years from both terrestrial and nearshore marine environments. Isotopic research on the island has increasingly helped with biological studies of endemic organisms, including evaluating foraging niches and investigating factors that affect the spatial distribution and abundance of species. The IsoMad database should facilitate future work by making it easy for researchers to access existing data (even for those who are relatively unfamiliar with the literature) and identify both research gaps and opportunities for using various isotope systems to answer research questions.

The dynamics of urban environments can result in novel injuries and mortalities for these animals. However, these negative impacts can be mitigated through planning, and onsite veterinary care like that provided by the Ubud Monkey Forest in Bali, Indonesia.

Observations of galagos in the wild reveal that they rely on fruits and invertebrates to varying degrees depending on their availability. We conducted a 6-week comparative dietary analysis of a colony of captive-housed northern greater galagos (Otolemur garnettii), which included five females and six males with known life histories.
