In this study, the authors estimate the causal effect of air pollution on eye and ear health. They find that eye or ear disease possibility rises 1.48% for a 10 μg/m3 increase in four-week average PM2.5 concentration. The impacts can last about 28 weeks and will be insignificant afterward.
The article systematically reviews research linking climate change to food systems, nutrition, and health (FSNH) from 2018-2023. It identifies key research gaps and presents an Evidence and Gap Map (EGM) to visualize the current landscape. Most studies focus on climate impacts on crop and livestock production, while fewer address nutrition-related health and postharvest processes. Addressing these gap is critical for developing effective climate adaptation and mitigation strategies that promote both human and planetary health.

This paper seeks to describe and categorise some of the most common behaviours and practices of public health professionals and institutions that introduce or sustain systematic ethnic bias into public health work and thus potentially perpetuate or exacerbate Indigenous inequities in health.
This content aligns with Goal 3: Good Health and Goal 13: Climate Action by exploring the relationship between mental health and climate anxiety in subjects of differing ages.
This content aligns with Goal 3: Good Health by highlighting the significant impact of climate change on mental health, emphasizing the need for awareness and interventions to address both physical and psychological health issues caused by environmental changes. By identifying the mental health risks associated with climate change and advocating for further research and interventions, the study aims to improve overall well-being and resilience among affected individuals. Additionally, it supports Goal 10: Reduced Inequalities by underscoring the universal nature of these mental health challenges, showing that climate change affects diverse populations regardless of age or gender, and advocating for equitable access to mental health support and resources to mitigate these risks for all individuals.

The study of Laguna Bacalar's paleoecology during the Late Holocene provides important insights into how regional climate changes and sea level fluctuations have shaped the vegetation and ecosystems of this region, which can inform conservation efforts and climate adaptation strategies.

This Article supports SDG 3 by demonstrating the cost-effectiveness of a multi-center multidisciplinary co-managed care model for hip fracture patients in China.
This Article supports SDG 3 by presenting strong evidence of negative effects of ear disease and/or hearing loss on all measured cognitive domains in a cohort of children enrolled in a randomized placebo-controlled trial of an 11-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine conducted between 2000 and 2004 in Bohol, Philippines.

The present mini-commentary on Alzheimer's disease describes recently revealed pathogenic elements, evolving capabilities for identifying unusually high individual susceptibility and developing tests that predict onset preclinically to allow preventative approaches. Several potential therapies that target cellular signaling and other pathways that are abnormal in Alzheimer's disease are in early clinical trials and will be reviewed briefly.
