When first accessing a website or online service, users are confronted with terms of service and privacy policies. These terms and policies are adhesion contracts which the user must accept to use the website or service. Virtually all users simply click “I agree” without reading the terms of these contracts. The law construes this as consent based on whether a “reasonable person” would understand that the click constitutes assent to those terms and policies.

What is already known? Poor psychological well-being is associated with increased risk of developing overweight and obesity. There is a dearth of evidence on whether better psychological well-being is associated with overweight and obesity reversal. What does this study add? Better child mental health and psychosocial well-being at age 11 years, but not age 14 years, are associated with overweight and obesity reversal at age 17 years.

AbstractUltra-processed food (UPF) consumption is associated prospectively with weight gain and obesity in observational studies of adults. Unaccounted for confounding is a risk when attempting to make causal inference from observational studies. Limited research has examined how feasible it is that unmeasured confounding may explain associations between UPF consumption and weight gain in observational research. We introduce the E value to obesity researchers.

Italian mastery of decorative stones can be traced through a variety of techniques, from the period of the Roman Empire through to the nineteenth century at least. Roman mosaic work was found across the Roman Empire, and the remains of mosaics are widely admired. In Roman Britain, artisans adapted their classic stone palette through the use of local stones, delivering greys, green and browns.

Há três anos, eu namorei brevemente uma professora que por acaso também era ativista dos direitos dos animais nas suas horas livres. A experiência me fez tomar uma decisão com a qual tenho convivido desde então: o veganismo. No ano passado concluí que, como cientista, precisava finalmente estudar o efeito que essa decisão tem sobre mim para decidir se deveria manter o veganismo para o resto da vida ou desistir dele.
