Objective: This article summarizes the findings of narrative and systematic literature reviews focused on the relationship between exposure to alcohol marketing and youth drinking, viewed in context of criteria for causality. We also consider the implications of this proposition for alcohol policy and public health.
Method: Our descriptive synthesis of findings is from 11 narrative and systematic reviews using the nine Bradford Hill causality criteria: (a) strength of association, (b) consistency, (c) specificity of association, (d) temporality, (e) biological gradient, (f) biological plausibility, (g) coherence, (h) experimental evidence, and (i) analogy.
Results: Evidence of causality for all nine of the Bradford Hill criteria was found across the review articles commissioned for this supplement and in other previously published reviews. In some reviews, multiple Bradford Hill criteria were met. The reviews document that a substantial amount of empirical research has been conducted in a variety of countries using different but complementary research designs.
Conclusions: The research literature available today is consistent with the judgment that the association between alcohol marketing and drinking among young persons is causal.

The Pupillary Light Reflex (PLR) is the involuntary movement of the pupil adapting to lighting conditions. The measurement and qualification of this information have a broad impact in different fields. Thanks to technological advancements and algorithms, obtaining accurate and non-invasive records of pupillary movements is now possible, expanding practical applications.

The influence of aqueous solutions of 2-(tetrafluoro(trifluoromethyl)-λ-sulfanyl-ethan-1-ol (CFSF-ethanol) and 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (TFE) on the secondary structure of melittin was studied using circular dichroism (CD) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. In water, melittin transitions into a random coil. However, upon addition of even as little as 1% by volume of CFSF-ethanol, the secondary structure of melittin stabilizes as a helix.

American culture encourages overconsumption, fueled by ubiquitous availability and pervasive marketing of ultra-processed foods and other addictive substances. This chronic overindulgence has contributed to rising rates of obesity, type 2 diabetes (T2D), substance abuse, mental health disorders and premature mortality. Glucose-like peptide-1 agonists (GLP-1RAs) affect the brain's reward pathway that mediates addiction to foods and various other substances.

This study investigates the returns-connectedness (RC) between Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) funds and biofuel markets. RC analysis helps stakeholders understand the role of ESG funds in promoting biofuel transitions. Using econometric models such as the Time-Varying Parameter Vector AutoRegressive (TVP-VAR) and Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT), we examine RC with data from January 2019 to December 2023.
