An article in support of SDG 3, estimating that 3.69 million people had Alzheimer's disease or other dementias in India in 2019, with prevalence rapidly increasing in those older than 60 years.
Clinicians increasingly face the challenge of caring for patients who say that they would prefer death to life with advanced dementia.
A study to evaluate medical student perceptions on the intersection of climate change and health in medical education.
These 5 professional virtues can be used to provide a practical framework for the professionally responsible design and implementation of medical missions.
Sea level rise (SLR) has and will continue to impact coastal communities in the coming decades. Despite the widespread availability of data on SLR projections, little is known about the differential impact of SLR on minority or economically disadvantaged populations. In this study, we aim to identify the geographic areas in which low-income and communities of color along the North and South Carolina coastline in the United States will experience the most severe effects of SLR.
Discusses the influence of parasite prevalance in pig heards where there are better animal welfare standards.
In this paper the authors conclude that clear trends emerged in measuring pathways between agriculture, food systems, and nutrition. There were many innovations combining measurement across domains, such as mixing and matching from water, food production, ecology, nutrition, health, and others to capture complexity and new levels of impact.
Even though a significant improvement in growth and nutrition was not noted among the integrated interventions, the importance of water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) and addressing it in reducing undernutrition is of the utmost importance
The authors demonstrate that water security is a powerful concept that is still in its early days in the nutrition literature. Water security also likely plays critical roles in outcomes upon which the public health community has broadly agreed as important: nutritional, mental, physical, and economic well-being. Increased attention to the benefits of ensuring water security and best practices for doing so are therefore needed
