Spotted seatrout, a popular recreational sport fish in the southeastern United States, are affected by freshwater flow conditions and the availability of estuarine habitat. However, the relative influence of these factors, particularly on early life stages of seatrout, remains uncertain. We used generalized linear models to quantify relationships between the probability of encountering juvenile spotted seatrout during seine surveys and various factors, including freshwater inflow conditions, the availability and richness of estuarine habitats (seagrass, salt marsh, oyster beds) around (400-m radius) fish collection sites (seascape-scale context), as well as distance to the nearest inlet to the Gulf of Mexico (estuary-scale context) across shallow waters (< 1.

Lucilia cuprina is a vector of important diseases in humans and animals that causes myiasis in sheep, leading to enormous damage to the sheep sector. Chemical products are used to control these flies; however, there are reports of resistance in addition to these products causing toxicity to the environment, humans, and animals, so alternative controls have been studied to reduce these impacts. Pleurotus spp.

Using a sample of 141 banks in Indonesia during the 2004-2018 period, we investigate the impact of financial technology (FinTech) firms on bank stability. We find that more FinTech firms tend to enhance bank stability regardless of types of FinTech firms and the measurement of bank stability. Meanwhile, we also find that small banks and non-listed banks tend to benefit more from the presence of FinTech firms.

Article Synopsis
  • The debate on intrauterine transmission of SARS-CoV-2 continues, with limited research highlighting potential risks to fetuses and newborns.
  • A case study describes a male infant born prematurely to a SARS-CoV-2-positive mother who tested negative at birth but later died from severe complications after 37 days in the neonatal ICU.
  • Autopsy findings showed the presence of SARS-CoV-2 proteins in various tissues, indicating possible intrauterine transmission and suggesting that thrombo-embolism may be a complication of SARS-CoV-2 infection in newborns, similar to adults.*
