Long-term changes in ocean heat content (OHC) represent a fundamental global warming indicator and are mostly caused by anthropogenic climate-altering gas emissions. OHC increases heavily threaten the marine environment, therefore, reconstructing OHC before the well-instrumented period (i.e.

- APOBEC3 proteins create some damaged HIV viruses in people who are infected, and this study looked at how these changed when patients switched treatments to dolutegravir and lamivudine.
- Researchers collected blood samples from patients before and after starting the new treatment and found that the number of defective viruses wasn't drastically lower after a year, but more patients had certain mutations related to drug resistance.
- Overall, they noticed changes in the mutations, but more research is needed to see what happens in the long run.
Four different Marine Rapid Environmental Assessment (MREA) procedures are compared with a focus on underwater acoustic performance. Co-located oceanographic-acoustic data were collected during the summer of 2015 in the Northwestern Mediterranean in the framework of a sea trial led by the NATO Centre for Maritime Research and Experimentation. The data were used to link MREA procedures and ocean-acoustic validation in a seamless framework.

Recognising laboratory limitations, Malawi opted to transition those on NNRTI-based first-line ART to TLD without viral load testing. We aimed to assess viral load and HIV drug resistance during 1 year following transition to TLD without previous viral load testing.
