CORRECTION: Efficacy of psilocybin for treating symptoms of depression: systematic review and meta-analysis

mycolabadmin

A major research study examining psilocybin’s effectiveness for treating depression has been corrected due to mathematical and data handling errors. The researchers fixed these issues by recalculating statistics and removing duplicate data from their analysis. While the main conclusions remained similar after correction, the authors emphasize this research is still preliminary and should lead to further study before clinical use.

Research landscape of experiments on global change effects on mycorrhizas

mycolabadmin

Scientists conducted a comprehensive survey of research on how mycorrhizal fungi (underground fungi that partner with plant roots) respond to global environmental changes like drought and pollution. They found that most research focuses on just one stressor at a time, with very few studies examining how multiple environmental changes together affect these important fungi. The research also showed significant geographic biases, with most studies concentrated in developed countries, leaving major knowledge gaps about mycorrhizal responses in understudied regions.

Correction to: Candida albicans—A systematic review to inform the World Health Organization Fungal Priority Pathogens List

mycolabadmin

This is a correction notice to an important scientific review about Candida albicans, a common fungal infection that affects many people worldwide. The World Health Organization requested this systematic review to help prioritize which fungal diseases are most important to address globally. The correction simply fixes an author’s name that was misspelled in the original published version of the review.

Research landscape of experiments on global change effects on mycorrhizas

mycolabadmin

Scientists conducted a comprehensive review of research studies examining how mycorrhizal fungi—fungi that help plants grow by living in their roots—respond to environmental changes caused by humans. They analyzed nearly 2,900 studies and found that most research focuses on just one environmental stress at a time, with very little studying how multiple stresses work together. The review identifies important gaps in our knowledge, particularly for emerging environmental threats like microplastics and for certain types of mycorrhizal fungi that haven’t been studied as much.
