This content supports the SDG Goal 3: Good health and well-being by providing the current knowledge regarding standard therapy and suggestions based on the literature for AIH patients being nonresponders to standard therapy and difficult-to-manage AIH patients to standard therapy.
This content supports the SDG Goal 3: Good health and well-being by presenting the antiviral strategies available to treat viral infections, those used to treat chronic viral hepatitis, and the mechanisms of action of drugs approved or at the developmental stage.
The Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized the traditional healthcare systems into intelligent system by allowing remote access and continuous monitoring of patient data. Specifically, first a novel scalable blockchain architecture is proposed to ensure data integrity and secure data transmission by leveraging Zero Knowledge Proof (ZKP) mechanism. Then, BDSDT integrates with the off-chain storage InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) to address difficulties with data storage costs and with an Ethereum smart contract to address data security issues.
This Article supports SDGs 7, 11, and 8 by presenting an alternative means of agricultural transport utilizing solar-powered farm rickshaws versus the traditional fossil fuel vehicles.
Many of the forests of the world are parts of complex landscapes that include intact native forests, forests utilized by communities, and agricultural lands. Understanding ecosystem services at the scale of landscapes benefits from careful consideration of transitions among these land uses, and this article examines these topics for landscapes in Peru and the Philippines.
This Article supports SDG 3 by assessing the incidence of HCV infection among people with HIV, during different periods statified by level of access to direct-acting antiviral therapy for HCV. Broader access to this treatment was associated, through a "treatment as prevention" effect, with lower incidence of HCV infection - approximately 50% lower in the period of broad access to the treatment compared with the period before access to the treatment.
Our research explores how Stakeholder Capitalism can contribute to global governance to achieve all the 17 SDGs. The main findings revealed that Stakeholder Capitalism and its principles are favorable to foster a friendly environment for achieving most of the SDGs and can contribute to global governance in achieving mainly the SDGs 8, 9, and 17. However, Stakeholder Capitalism literature is incipient for the SDGs 6, 14, and 15, needing further research development by considering non-human stakeholders and the environment.
Reducing emissions and improving environmental conditions are now a global priority for promoting sustainable growth and preventing the adverse consequences of global warming and climate change.
Health for All must include representation of people with lived experience in the research underlying health care: this paper describes a first-person experience of this in mental health.
The frequencies of immune receptors on T lymphocytes varies among African, East Asian, South Asian and European populations.
