Abstract	The study of microplastics in inland water bodies has been growing recently, but there is still insufficient knowledge of the status of microplastics in lacustrine ecosystems, especially saline lakes. Studies have also been conducted on sediment, water, and biological compartments of lakes. In the present study, the status of microplastics in abiotic compartments of the saline Maharloo Lake (Iran) was evaluated for the first time and included surface sediment, lake salt, sludge, lake water, and wastewater. A total of 742 microplastics, mainly clear and fibrous, ranging from 50 to 250 µm in size and composed of polypropylene and polyethylene terephthalate, were identified in 33 samples. Mean microplastic concentrations in solid samples were higher than in liquid ones, with the highest levels (51.7 microplastics kg⁻¹) in sludge and the lowest levels in lake salt (10.4 microplastics kg⁻¹). The highest microplastic levels were found in the northwest area of the lake, where wastewater effluents from urban, industrial, and agricultural activities discharge into the lake. Inter‐relationship assessments of microplastics with hierarchical cluster analysis suggested that differences in the distribution of microplastics with different physical properties in Maharloo Lake are greatly affected by weathering processes and proximity to contaminated hotspots. Our results reveal that the widespread occurrence of microplastics in Maharloo Lake mostly originates from potential plastic sources in urban areas of Shiraz Metropolis and its industrial zone in the vicinity of the study area; thus microplastics are dispersed into the lake via surface runoffs, especially wastewater inflows.

Abstract	Heterocyclic amines (HCAs) are toxic products from the Maillard reaction that form from the reaction of sugars, amino acids and creatine/creatinine when cooking protein rich food. In this work, commonly consumed meats in Saudi Arabia (camel, beef and chicken) were fried under conditions resembling home cooking. The effect of marinades made of blueberry, raspberry and strawberry were tested separately on meat at different marinating times (1, 6, 12, 24h, at 4 °C) before frying. The marinades caused an overall reduction of HCAs. The decrease was more noticeable with long marination time ≥ 6h. The reduction of individual HCAs, after 24h marinades, was 91–100% for pyridines; 40–67% for β-carbolines; and 100% for quinoxalines, quinolines, α-carbolines and ɣ-carbolines, although the latter three were seldomly detected in this study. An increase, up to 2 times, on the formation of the studied quinoxalines was observed in every meat and marination for no more than 1h. Therefore, longer marinating times with berry extracts, from 6h, are recommended over those below (1h).

Abstract	Water treatment plants' effluents are hotspots of microplastics (MPs) and microfibres (MFs) released into the aquatic environment because they were not designed to capture these particles. Special attention should be given to MFs, since they mainly come from laundry and are related to one of the main MP shapes detected in water and wastewater treatment plants. In this sense, Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) could be a feasible solution for tackling MP and MF pollution, however, it is still premature to extract conclusions due to the limited number of studies on the degradation of these particles (specifically MFs) using AOPs. This review addresses the impacts of AOPs on MPs/MFs, focusing on their degradation efficiency, toxicity, and sustainability of the processes, among other aspects. The review points out that polyamide MFs can achieve mass loss >90% by photocatalytic system using TiO

Abstract	Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) are an indispensable component of a healthy society. However, they are well-established environmental contaminants, and many can elicit biological disruption in exposed organisms. It is now a decade since the landmark review covering the top 20 questions on PPCPs in the environment (Boxall et al., 2012). In the present study we discuss key research priorities for the next 10 years with a focus on how regions where PPCPs pose the greatest risk to environmental and human health, either now or in the future, can be identified. Specifically, we discuss why this problem is of importance and review our current understanding of PPCPs in the aquatic environment. Foci include PPCP occurrence and what drives their environmental emission as well as our ability to both quantify and model their distribution. We highlight critical areas for future research including the involvement of citizen science for environmental monitoring and using modeling techniques to bridge the gap between research capacity and needs. Because prioritization of regions in need of environmental monitoring is needed to assess future/current risks, we also propose four criteria with which this may be achieved. By applying these criteria to available monitoring data, we narrow the focus on where monitoring efforts for PPCPs are most urgent. Specifically, we highlight 19 cities across Africa, Central America, the Caribbean, and Asia as priorities for future environmental monitoring and risk characterization and define four priority research questions for the next 10 years.

Abstract	Background: The second webspace syndrome (SWS) refers to the progressive divergence between 2nd and 3rd toes associated with pain at the second intermetatarsal space that can be confused with Morton's neuroma and treated as such without considering the underlying deformity. There is yet no consensus regarding the best treatment, from isolated soft tissue or bony procedures or a combination of both. The objective of this study was to describe the clinical characteristics of the disease, as well as to evaluate the radiological outcomes of patients with SWS treated with open Weil's osteotomy or distal metatarsal minimal invasive osteotomy (DMMO) of the second metatarsal, with main emphasis on medialization of the head in the anteroposterior plane in either procedure. Methods: A retrospective study of all patients with SWS treated with Weil's medializing osteotomy (open and percutaneous) associated or not with other forefoot procedures, treated between 2012 and 2019, was performed. Radiological variables such as metatarsal-phalangeal angle (MTPA), percentage of metatarsal uncoverage of M2 with respect to its phalanx, intermetatarsal angle (M1, M2 and M3), length of second metatarsal and intermetatarsal distance M2 - M3 were measured and compared before and after surgery. Results: Twenty-six patients were included, with a mean follow-up of 26 months. All patients presented divergence between the 2nd and 3rd toes, 75 % associated pain at the level of the second intermetatarsal space and two patients presented neuropathic symptoms. After surgery (nineteen open and seven DMMO), all patients rated their results as good or excellent, and the two patients with neuropathic symptoms had improvement in their symptoms. Regarding the radiological results, the percentage of subluxation of the second MTP decreased in a large percentage of the operated patients (from 43.3 % to 3.9 %) with statistical significance as well as the length of M2, IM angle between M1 - M2, IM distance between M2-M3 and the percentage of uncoverage of the second MTP (p < 0.001). Conclusion: Medial translation associated with open Weil osteotomy or DMMO seems to correct the muscle-ligament imbalance of the second metatarsophalangeal joint and restore normal radiographic measurements, especially in the coronal and sagittal plane, without the need for soft tissue procedures, as well as the resolution of associated neuropathic symptoms in some patients. Level of evidence: Level IV, retrospective case series.

Abstract	Microplastic (MP) contamination in the aquatic ecosystems is a growing global environmental issue that can cause detrimental effects on aquatic species. In this study, MPs in fish (six species, 195 specimens), molluscs (one species, 21 specimens), and crustaceans (three species, 264 specimens) with various biometry, trophic levels, feeding habits, and habitat characteristics were investigated in three habitats: a river, an estuary, and a harbor in the Persian Gulf. Gastrointestinal tracts, gills and skin of targeted samples were chemically digested and the MPs recovered were counted and analyzed with optical microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and SEM/EDX. MPs counted in species of the Bushehr Port (11.4 ± 4.4 MPs/10 g) were significantly higher than in the other locations. The total abundance of MPs ranged from 4.0 ± 2.3 MPs/10 g for Metapenaeus affinis to 28.0 ± 6.4 MPs/10 g for Sepia pharaonis. Importantly, no significant relationships were found between the number of MPs in different inedible tissues, trophic levels, and types of feeding habit. Nevertheless, MPs were more abundant (p < 0.05) in benthos (34.7 MPs/10 g) than benthopelagic (25.9 MPs/10 g) and pelagic species (22.6 MPs/10 g). A total of 96.6 % of the identified MPs were fibers, these were generally ≥1000 μm and were mainly black/grey. Fibers may come from municipal wastewater effluents and fishing activities. The findings of this study present new insights into MP contamination routes in aquatic species.
