Quantifying how co-acting global change factors (GCFs) influence plant invasion is crucial for predicting future invasion dynamics. We did a meta-analysis to assess pairwise effects of five GCFs (elevated CO, drought, eutrophication, increased rainfall and warming) on native and alien plants. We found that alien plants, compared to native plants, suffered less or benefited more for four of the eight pairwise GCF combinations, and that all GCFs acted additively.

We discuss the arguments exposed in the Letter to the Editor "Reflections on the Inclusion of Direct-Care Physicians as Educators in Community Hospitals", exploring the teaching competencies necessary for community preceptors in the context of medical education, highlighting the growing responsibility of these professionals in the training of future physicians in health-deprived regions. From a narrative review, we analyze faculty development (FD) programs, emphasizing their importance in improving teaching skills, creating support networks, and providing personalized content for specific challenges. Among the competence domains identified are teaching skills, evaluation criteria, professionalism, communication, and leadership/management.
