What, where, and when: Spatial-temporal distribution of macro-litter on the seafloor of the western and central Mediterranean sea.

The progressive increase of marine macro-litter on the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea is an urgent problem that needs accurate information and guidance to identify those areas most at risk of accumulation. In the absence of dedicated monitoring programs, an important source of opportunistic data is fishery-independent monitoring campaigns of demersal resources. These data have long been used but not yet extensively.

Meat hybrids-An assessment of sensorial aspects, consumer acceptance, and nutritional properties.

So-called meat hybrids are a new class of products where a fraction of the meat product (e.g., 20%) is replaced with alternative protein sources, such as plant-based ones.

Lack of compensation of energy intake explains the success of alternate day feeding to produce weight loss.

Background And Aims: This study was designed to obtain daily weighed food intake of participants engaged in Alternate Day Feeding (ADF). Prior ADF studies have used self-reported food intake, a method that has received criticism for its limited accuracy.

Subjects And Methods: Forty-nine university students received academic credit for participating in the study.

Presence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies following COVID-19 diagnosis: a longitudinal study of patients at a major urgent care provider in New York.

The duration of antibody persistence following natural infection is unclear. We examined routine SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic and serological testing data on 6522 persons diagnosed between March 2020 and March 2021 who had at least 1 antibody test ≥30 days after diagnosis at CityMD, an urgent care provider. Using survival analysis, we estimated the median duration of detectable anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies and hazard of seroreversion by demographic and clinical characteristics.
