In the pursuit of more sustainable diets, researchers have been studying ways to promote a transition from animal- to plant-based meals in foodservice contexts by influencing participants' conscious choices through names, labels, claims, and information. This critical review found that these interventions usually mobilize only those already engaged in reducing the consumption of animal products and often only during the intervention period, failing to influence those who eat most meat or to create long-lasting effects. Analyzing the choice for vegetarian meals against meals with meat in recently published studies conducted in foodservice contexts, we argue that the transition to more sustainable diets should rely less on consumers' willpower and more on public policies and institutional measures that change the availability, price, and visibility of plant-based meals.

The ability to control the growth and orientation of neurites over long distances has significant implications for regenerative therapies and the development of physiologically relevant brain tissue models. In this study, the forces generated on magnetic nanoparticles internalised within intracellular endosomes are used to direct the orientation of neuronal outgrowth in cell cultures. Following differentiation, neurite orientation was observed after 3 days application of magnetic forces to human neuroblastoma (SH-SY5Y) cells, and after 4 days application to rat cortical primary neurons.

Article Synopsis
  • Empowerment is crucial for women in India, yet patriarchal norms limit their autonomy, leading to heightened domestic violence and health issues.
  • The study aims to explore how different dimensions of women's empowerment relate to their attitudes toward justifying physical violence in certain situations, suggesting that increased empowerment may reduce acceptance of such violence.
  • Data was analyzed from the National Family Health Survey-5 (2019-2021), revealing low employment rates among women, high asset ownership, and significant instances of justified physical violence, indicating a complex relationship between empowerment and domestic abuse.
