Abstract Plankton play a key role in marine food webs by producing and transferring organic matter and energy to higher trophic levels. To define the trophic structure and interactions within the planktonic communities in the Gulf of Naples, we determined carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios in particulate organic matter (POM, <20 μm ...

Clinical Characteristics and Concordance of Anti‐MDA5 Antibodies: A Multicenter Australian Study
Objective In Australia, anti‐MDA5 antibodies are exclusively tested by a line immunoblot assay (LIA). The clinical concordance of an LIA‐positive anti‐MDA5 result is unclear. We aimed to describe the clinical features and determine the clinical concordance of patients with anti‐MDA5 antibodies. Methods Electronic records of a multisite cohort (patients
