Will biodiversity actions yield healthy places? A systematic review of human health outcomes associated with biodiversity‐focused urban greening

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 11, Page 2622-2658, November 2025.
Abstract There is growing interest in using urban greening projects to support biodiversity. While there are many potential co‐benefits, the health outcomes resulting from biodiversity‐supporting activities have yet to be synthesized. We conducted a systematic review of health outcomes associated with seven biodiversity‐supporting elements, including ...

Randomized placebo-controlled trial comparing fluticasone aqueous nasal spray in mono-therapy, fluticasone plus cetirizine, fluticasone plus montelukast and cetirizine plus montelukast for seasonal allergic rhinitis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
BACKGROUND: Corticosteroids are considered to be particularly effective in reducing nasal congestion and are therefore recommended as first-line treatment in allergic rhinitis patients with moderate to severe and/or persistent symptoms.

Trans‐Atlantic Dispersal and Introgression Explain Holarctic Disjunct Distributions in Vanessa Butterflies

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 11, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Species with disjunct distributions have long puzzled evolutionary biologists and biogeographers. Long‐distance dispersal can play a pivotal role in generating intra‐specific disjunct distributions, initiating early stages of allopatric speciation and leading to eventual interspecific disjunctions.

High‐throughput assessment of anemophilous pollen size and variability using imaging cytometry

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 1875-1888, May 2025.
Summary Pollen grain size relates to plant community structure via pollen dispersal, plant resource allocation into regenerative processes, plant phylogeny and plant genetics (ploidy), or it can be used as a decisive trait for pollen species distinction.

Opinion and report of the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (ANSES) relating to an analysis of the health risks associated with exposure to caterpillars with stinging hairs and the development of management recommendations

open access: yesFood Risk Assess Europe, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Several species of Lepidoptera with caterpillars bearing urticating hairs are increasing their range in metropolitan France from year to year, such as the pine processionary (Thaumetopoea pityocampa Denis et Schiffermüller 1775) whose presence was historically limited to the south of France, and which is gradually being observed in the north ...
