The Pandemic EVIDENCE Collaboration Pillar 1: diagnostics and transmission by Conly, J, Plüddemann, A, Jefferson, T, Rosca, C, Heneghan, C

“…The evidence produced to support the optimal deployment of NPIs to reduce transmission of SARS-CoV-2 was often of poor quality, and decisions were made without considering the wealth of previous research on respiratory virus transmission from human challenge studies. …”

Genetic, natal, and spatial drivers of social phenotypes in wild great tits by Satarkar, D, Sepil, I, Sheldon, BC

“…Individual gregariousness also had a small genetic component, with a low heritability estimate for degree (&lt;5%). Centrality showed heritability up to 10% in one of 3&thinsp;years sampled, whereas betweenness showed none, indicating modest genetic variation in individual sociability, but not group-switching tendencies. …”

Diagnostic accuracy of point-of-care lung ultrasound for community-acquired pneumonia in children in ambulatory settings: a systematic review and meta-analysis by Hughes-Davies, H, Ukwatte, U, Roberts, N, Turner, PJ, Hayward, GN, Fanshawe, TR, Bird, C

A pure world: moral cognition and spiritual experiences in Chinese World of Warcraft by Hornbeck, R

“…These extra-game agencies help explain why these aspects of gameplay were cultivated in lieu of, or as superordinate to, aspects that may be 'relevant' to other cognitive mechanisms. Chapter 5 argues that reports of soul merger experiences obtained in C<em>WoW</em> resemble Durkheim’s 'collective effervescence' (Durkheim, 1995 [1912]) and may be understood at the cognitive level as 'flow' (Csikszentmihalyi, 1990) experiences conjoined with affective outputs from Haidt and Joseph's moral foundations. …”
