    Eleven key measures for monitoring general practice clinical activity during COVID-19: A retrospective cohort study using 48 million adults’ primary care records in England through OpenSAFELY

    Louis Fisher, Helen J Curtis ... Ben Goldacre
    There was substantial change in primary care activity following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2019 as indicated by key measures reflective of clinical activity in general practice but service was largely restored by April 2021.

    Native American genetic ancestry and pigmentation allele contributions to skin color in a Caribbean population

    Khai C Ang, Victor A Canfield ... Keith C Cheng
    Analysis of 458 Kalinago provides new insights into the population's genetic structure, the contribution of Native American ancestry to skin pigmentation, and the identification of a coding variant in OCA2 with an estimated –8 melanin units effect size.

    Searching for molecular hypoxia sensors among oxygen-dependent enzymes

    Li Li, Susan Shen ... Steven J Altschuler
    A survey of oxygen-dependent enzymes suggests new candidates for oxygen sensors, expanding potential mechanisms underlying hypoxia-related adaptations or diseases in humans.

    Hippocampal place cell remapping occurs with memory storage of aversive experiences

    Garrett J Blair, Changliang Guo ... Hugh T Blair
    Imaging of neurons within the hippocampus, a memory region of the brain, reveals how the brain updates memories during different learning conditions compared to when learning is blocked by amnestic drugs.
