Seddon and Zimmermann have raised questions about the evidence for increased UV-B flux across the end-Permian mass extinction (EPME) that was presented in our recent study, specifically regarding the measurement of UV-B-absorbing compound (UAC) levels in fossil pollen. We respond to these points, arguing that the comparison of FTIR spectra of >250 million-year-old Permian fossil pollen with ~700-year-old subfossil pollen is not valid and that negligible nonrandom interference derived from water vapor fluctuations during data generation cannot coincidentally produce a substantial UAC peak during the EPME. Furthermore, we refute the suggestion that the measured aromatic peak at 1600 cm could have been influenced by diagenetic products from other organic constituents of pollen.

Introduction: If the use of intermittent catheterization has revolutionized the prognosis of neuro-urology patients, it seems necessary to question the ecological cost of single-use catheters, in a process of decarbonization of the health sector. The aim of this work is to identify the environmental impact of intermittent catheterization and potential solutions to reduce it.
Methods: A review of the literature on the environmental impact of intermittent catheterizations was conducted.

Among promising targets for new antimalarials is the Plasmodium falciparum proteasome. Multiple inhibitors have demonstrated potent antimalarial activity and synergy with artemisinins. Potent irreversible peptide vinyl sulfones offer synergy, minimal resistance selection, and lack of cross-resistance.
