A Viewpoint, in the context of SDG 3 and 9, exploring the impact and potential of China's Smart Eldercare model, which harnesses digital technologies to improve the quality of life of China's fast-expanding ageing population, including nearly 10 million people with Alzheimer's disease.
This Article supports SDG 3 by estimating the prevalence of hepatitis B, C and D viruses in Vietnam since 1990; findings indicate that hepatitis B virus is by far the biggest contributor to hepatitis-related morbidity and mortality in Vietnam and so and elimination efforts must focus on screening and treatment of pregnant women and improved provision of active and passive immunisation at birth to prevent vertical transmission.
This Article supports SDG 3 by describing the association between low economic status and increased prevalence of hepatis B in China and calls for targeted interventions that could reduce this prevalence among poorer populations.
Background: Epidemiological studies have reported the associations between nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and pediatric asthma incidence, but unable to ascertain indoor NO2 sources. We estimated the pediatric asthma incidence and corresponding economic losses attributable to NO2 from indoor and outdoor sources in urban areas in China.
Background: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a serious global health problem and China has the largest disease burden. Literatures focusing on economic-related inequalities in HBV infection among pregnant women are scarce. We aimed to quantify the economic-related inequalities and the change over time in HBV infection among pregnant women in mainland China from 2013 to 2020 to inform strategies considering economic-related inequalities.
Illustrates the impact of the pandemic and resulting reduction in travel on food insecurity in Tajikistan.
An Article on the burden of chronic hepatitis B and C infections in Japan, in the context of SDG 3, highlighting the need for improved screening strategies for hepatitis C virus and development of new therapies leading to a functional cure for hepatitis B virus.
Rib Langerhans’ cell histiocytosis LCH is an easily overlooked etiology of chest pain. Radiological evaluations may help to determine the location, amount and features of bone LCH, but immunohistochemical results of focal tissues are essential in establishing the diagnosis.
Plant Extracts in Neurodegenerative Diseases, 2022, Pages 1-15
This book chapter advances SDG #3 and #10 by focusing on polyphenols and flavonoids and their crucial role in decreasing AD symptoms. In addition, it highlights the neuroprotective role of various essential ingredients of plant extracts such as Icariside, Onjisaponin B, Asarones, Liquiritin, Tanshinone IIA (TIIA) and cryptotanshinone (CT), Ginsenoside Rg1, and n-Butylidenephthalide. The efficacy of green nanotechnology are also discussed.
The availability of food is the basic entity for the survival of human. The resources that make a nation food secured is guided by multiple factors and can be evaluated using a set of indicators. We present an assessment for ranking food security of the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) nations represented by Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Nepal, the Maldives, Pakistan and Sri Lanka using a set of indicators under the prevailing scenarios of climate change.
