This Article supports SDG 3 by comparing epigenetic ageing during untreated HIV infection and during HIV being treated with antiretroviral therapy. They found that epigenetic ageing was accelarated during the former and decelerated during the latter.

This study supports SDG 3 by highlighting that coverage of opioid agonist treatment and syringe exchange programmes (which are associated with reducing HIV transmission) are low in most countries and for the majority of people who inject drugs; although coverage is improving, this is insufficient when compared with the indicator targets set out by WHO, UNAIDS, and the UN Office on Drugs and Crime.

This Article supports SDG 3 by analysing follow-up data from over 200 000 people with HIV from 20 cohorts in North America and Europe who had started ART up to 20 years previously, and showing that estimated life expectancy for people with HIV on long-term ART with high CD4 cell counts is only a few years lower than that in the general population, irrespective of when ART was started.

This study assessed the central auditory processing (CAP) function and its electroencephalogram (EEG) in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and the early stage of Alzheimer's disease (AD) so as to provide a basis for early recognition and intervention of AD.

Increasing plant productivity resilience to drought plays an important role in ecosystem services, and while soil organic matter (SOM) promotes plant growth, its role in mitigating aboveground biomass (AGB) loss as a result of drought in alpine grasslands is unclear. This study by Zhao et al., 2023 examined 209 alpine grassland sites on the Tibetan Plateau and revealed that AGB decreases with increasing aridity (above 0.37), and a stronger positive relationship between AGB and SOM is observed in more arid conditions, suggesting the significance of soil carbon sequestration strategies for biomass production and climate change mitigation in arid areas.
