The present study aims to determine the frequency of G6PD deficiency among SCA patients and the association between them in the tribal community (Gond) of Chhattisgarh, India.
This Article supports SDG 3 by showing that there is a high global seroprevalence of HCV infection among pregnant women (estimated at 2.2–5.3 million cases worldwide), and particularly in lower-income settings. The authors suggest policy implications, such as expanding screening programmes for pregnant women and women of childbearing age, particularly in lower-income settings.
This Article supports SDG 3 by providing estimates of HIV and hepatitis C testing and treatment uptake among people who inject drugs. Data availability was variable, and where data were available, uptake was generally suboptimal, indicating a need for countries to implement targeted interventions to improved testing, linkage to care, and treatment among people who inject drugs
10 December 2023 marks the 75th anniversary of one of the world's most groundbreaking global pledges: the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR).
Residents of Australia’s remote regions have lower life expectancies and poorer health outcomes than other Australians. Access to hospital and specialist care frequently requires transport via road or air and time spent away from family and community. The paper explores consumer perspective and identifies areas for improvement.
Human health, in the coming decades (and already in some “front-running” regions), is in peril. Although some authorities warn that over-stating such risks can induce paralysis and despair, under-stating them will not generate the intense action that is required. The impact of climate change on the Earth system is now so significant that the next ice age will likely be delayed by at least 50,000 years [201]. If humans do not rapidly change their collective behavior, then this may be their most enduring legacy. It is hoped that this chapter makes a small contribution to SDG3.
This article ties to SDG3 by examining ambient temperature and inpatient mortality
This content aligns with Goal 3: Good Health by exploring potential nutraceutical interventions for autism and related disorders, which can enhance therapeutic strategies and improve health outcomes for individuals affected by these conditions. By investigating the roles of various dietary and environmental factors, the study aims to provide a more nuanced understanding of autism's complex etiology, potentially leading to more effective management options. Additionally, it supports Goal 10: Reduced Inequalities by emphasizing the need for accessible and diverse treatment approaches, such as nutraceuticals, which can offer individuals and families more options for managing autism, regardless of their socioeconomic status or access to traditional healthcare resources.

This content aligns with Goal 3: Good Health by exploring the systemic nature of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and its associations with other physical and mental health issues, emphasizing the need for comprehensive treatment approaches that address various underlying factors, including autonomic dysfunction and neuroinflammation. By proposing new targets for treatment, the chapter promotes a more holistic understanding of ADHD that can lead to improved health outcomes for affected individuals. Additionally, it supports Goal 10: Reduced Inequalities by highlighting the importance of recognizing and addressing the complex interplay of conditions that often accompany ADHD, ensuring that all individuals receive equitable and effective care tailored to their unique health needs, regardless of their background or circumstances.
This content aligns with Goal 3: Good Health and Wellbeing by explaining the different contributions to the mitochondrial toxic profile produced either by the virus or by the antiretroviral treatment.
