Holistic processing, a hallmark of face perception, is often measured in the so-called composite paradigm, in which participants are asked to match part of a stimulus while ignoring another part. In prior work, we recommended against the use of one version of the composite task we call the partial design, on the basis of confounds with response biases. Rossion wrote a lengthy piece that reviews the work that he has published using this design, raising a large number of criticisms, both about an alternative measure of holistic processing that we have used and advocated (which we call the complete design) and about our work in general. In this reply, we have limited our discussion to those issues that would be relevant to a researcher looking to decide which version of this composite paradigm to use, as we doubt a comprehensive reply would be of significant interest outside a very small circle.

Healthcare services contribute 5 to 10% of global carbon emissions and environmental burden on the planet. Sustainability in health care and laboratory medicine is gaining global momentum emphasizing a holistic approach to reduce carbon footprint, improve the delivery and quality of care, while optimizing operational efficiency and effectiveness. Digital transformation has the potential of achieving these goals simultaneously.

Introduction: Enamel Renal Syndrome (ERS) (OMIM 204690) is a rare genetic condition characterised by a distinct oral profile and sometimes nephrocalcinosis. This autosomal recessive condition, caused by pathogenic variants in the FAM20A gene, is linked to ectopic mineralisation in tissues such as dental pulp, follicles, gingiva, and kidneys. Although the oral phenotype has been well-characterised, less common features have been described, highlighting possible gaps in the literature on the phenotypic variability of the condition.

The initial skin breakdown and subsequent healing processes are complex and influenced by various parameters, including systemic factors, infectious bioburden, and perfusion. Vascular wounds comprise inadequate inflow (due to peripheral artery disease), microvascular damage (result of diabetes mellitus), or vasoconstriction. Normal healing of acute wounds occurs in a sequence of defined stages; however, if a dysregulated inflammatory state ensues, it is classified as chronic.

With 360 km³ of wastewater produced each year in Europe, the management and control of units responsible for their treatment appear as major challenges in preserving the environment. Nevertheless, these processes remain vulnerable to the presence of toxic compounds likely to compromise their performance. Although many toxicity tests exist to evaluate the impact of pollutants on the environment, these are generally not easily transferable to the monitoring of wastewater treatment processes (constraints of implementation, representativeness of the information provided).

On January 26, 2022, the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) Step 1 exam transitioned to a pass-fail grading system instead of the conventional three-digit score. This move was intended to decrease the emphasis on Step 1 scores and facilitate a more holistic approach by programs in the residency selection process. However, since the implementation of the new grading system, we have seen a lower passing percentage among all medical students, including U.
