Researchers detected Usutu virus RNA in nine of 818 wild carnivores sampled across the Netherlands, while no animals tested positive for West Nile virus RNA. Neutralizing antibodies to one or both viruses in red foxes and stone martens indicate broader spillover exposure and suggest these species may support arbovirus surveillance.

Four weeks of a 10-minute evening cosmetic routine with self-massage improved self-reported sleep quality, state anxiety, mental health, and vitality in women with sleep complaints compared with usual routines. Exploratory wearable data showed longer total and deep sleep on rest days, but the non-randomized design and absence of wearable controls limit causal conclusions.

Whether you are an early bird or a night owl, your sleep patterns can tell a lot about a person's eating habits and subsequently the potential health risks.
