Search for Campylobacter Reveals High Prevalence and Pronounced Genetic Diversity of Arcobacter butzleri in Floodwater Samples Associated with Hurricane Florence, North Carolina, USA

Hurricane Florence floodwaters were sampled for pathogens from agriculture-dense eastern North Carolina. The survey yielded little Campylobacter but the same methods found Arcobacter butzleri in 73.5% of samples, signaling that more surveillance of environmental waters and food animal production systems may be warranted.

The Association Between Macular Pigment Optical Density and Visual Function Outcomes: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

A systematic evidence review links the lutein/zeaxanthin-rich macular pigment in retinal eye tissue with visual function. This is an important part of the overall process to quantify recommended intakes of the lutein/zeaxanthin for good health among the general public.

Protein Intake and Human Health: Implications of Units of Protein Intake

A literature review revealed the use of myriad units of protein intake, with differential results on cardiometabolic outcomes in nutrition research. This paper recommends that authors be specific about the use of WHO (g/kg ideal BW) compared with US (g/kg actual BW) units, and ideally use gram or percent energy in observational studies.

Repeated Exposure to and Subsequent Consumption of Sweet Taste: Reanalysis of Test Meal Intake Data Following the Repeated Consumption of Sweet vs Non-sweet Beverages

Repeated exposures to sweet vs. non-sweet beverages revealed no increase in sweet food consumption after drinking the test beverages.
