How John Fetterman Came Out of the Darkness
When he looks back on the past year—a year in which he nearly died, became a U.S. Senator, and nearly died again—it is the debate that John Fetterman identifies as the breaking point.
“The debate lit the mitch,” he says, then shakes his head in frustration and tries again. The right word is there in his brain, but he struggles to get it out. “Excuse me, that should be lit the mitch—” He stops and tries again. “Lit the match,” he says finally.

Neurological manifestations of COVID-19 in pregnancy: a cross-sectional study
AbstractThe occurrence of neurological manifestations and complications in pregnant women compared to non-pregnant women with COVID-19 is unclear. This cross-sectional study included women aged over 18 years hospitalized with SARS-CoV-2 infection confirmed by RT-PCR from March to June 2020 in Recife, Brazil. We evaluated 360 women, including 82 pregnant patients who were significantly younger (27.5 vs. 53.6 years; p < 0.01) and less frequently obese (2.4% vs. 15.1%; p < 0.01) than the non-pregnant group. All pregnancies were confirmed using ultrasound imaging. Abdominal pain was the only more frequent CO...

Eleven science stories likely to make big news in 2023
As the COVID-19 pandemic enters its fourth year as a global health emergency, researchers will continue pushing to help make the disease manageable and ordinary. They will track hundreds of subvariants of Omicron, the highly transmissible but seemingly less lethal strain of SARSCoV-2 that dominated in 2022. Virologists will watch the virus’ evolution this year to see whether it has finally slowed or a more dangerous variant pops up, evading much of the immunity that humanity has built up to previous ones. Vaccine researchers hope to develop new shots that provide broad protection against a variety of coronaviruses. Ano...

Prevalence risk of sarcopenia in older Brazilian adults during the pandemic: A cross-sectional analysis of the Remobilize Study
CONCLUSIONS: During the pandemic, the prevalence of RS in older Brazilians was estimated at 17.1%. Moderate to severe functional limitation, comorbidities, presence of pain, walking, longer SB period, and reduced life space mobility significantly contributed to RS in older adults during the pandemic.PMID:36541952 | DOI:10.1590/1516-3180.2022.0159.R1.19082022
