Resitting, being offered a 'second chance' at an exam following failure to achieve a passing grade, is both common and stressful in medical school. There is a significant gap in the medical education literature around evidence-based support for resitting medical students. The study explores medical student experiences of resits through a peer-assisted learning programme (PAL) delivered to early years resitting medical students at Imperial College School of Medicine (ICSM) in 2021 and 2022.

This study explores the characteristics and mechanisms of diurnal rainfall in Vietnam (VN), focusing on two key aspects: (1) the ability of Integrated Multi-satelliteE Retrievals for GPM (IMERG) to capture regional and seasonal sub-daily rainfall patterns; (2) the influence of multi-scale atmospheric processes in shaping these patterns. Data from 171 rain gauge stations served as a reference for the evaluation. Results indicate that while IMERG underestimates the magnitude of diurnal rainfall variation, it successfully identifies regional and seasonal differences in diurnal rainfall timing.

Background: Three randomized controlled trials have demonstrated the efficacy of doxycycline for bacterial sexually transmitted infection postexposure prophylaxis (Doxy PEP). Few studies have assessed provider knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) regarding Doxy PEP implementation. Between July of 2023 and January 2024, this study qualitatively assessed KAP and intention to prescribe Doxy PEP among health care providers in the New York City area.

Non-native plant invasions and climate warming alter the microclimatic conditions that organisms experience in their habitats, with potential implications for the fitness of native faunal species, particularly ectotherms. Predictions for species conservation increasingly use microclimate data at fine spatial scales relevant to organisms, but they typically overlook the modulating effect that vegetation changes have on the microclimates available in the habitat. Here we quantify the microclimatic changes imposed by invasive trees and simultaneous warming on native habitats and assess the resulting thermal benefits and costs to a small tortoise species () from an organismal perspective and throughout its life cycle.

Under the collective threat of war, the 2022 Russian invasion would be expected to unify Ukrainians across distinct ethnic, linguistic, geographic and generational identities. Here, we show this using survey data collected in Belarus and Ukraine before and after the full-fledged invasion of Ukraine by Russia. Using our data collection waves from spring and summer of 2022, we observed attitudinal changes rarely documented before and after such an event.
