This chapter advances the UN SDG Goal 3: Good Health and Goal 10: Reduced Inequalities by discussing the importance of equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility (EDIA) as related to research in applied behavior analysis.
This Article supports SDG 3 by analysing the available data regarding HIV prevalence among international migrants compared with native-born people, finding that prevalence was higher among the former group (overall pooled prevalence ratio 1.70). Factors associated with higher prevalence were arriving from African countries, being an undocumented migrant, asylum seeker, or refugee, and being a pregnant woman. Targeted approaches to facilitate testing among these groups may be beneficial.
This article explores health disparities based on the intersection of sex, geography, race, and ethnicity that have been identified for poorer pre- and postnatal outcomes in the general population, as well as those with critical congenital heart disease.
This Personal View makes a contribution to Sustainable Development Goal 3 by summarising the advances is early detection, drug development, and trial methodology which the authors argue should be used in brain health clinics to develop new therapies for Alzheimer's disease.

DNA glycosylase Neil3 leads to sex-specific differences in AD. Neil3 increases plaque deposition in female APP/PS1 mice. Neil3 promotes hippocampal neurogenesis and working memory in male APP/PS1 mice. Neil3-dependent DNA damage accumulation does not correlate with AD pathogenesis.
Based on current studies, the incidence of Ewing sarcoma (ES) varies significantly by race and ethnicity, with the disease being most common in patients of European ancestry. However, race/ethnicity has generally been self-reported rather than formally evaluated at a population level using DNA evidence. Additionally, mitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of ES, yet there have been no reported studies of mitochondrial genetics in ES. Thus, we evaluated both the mitochondrial and nuclear ancestries of 420 pediatric ES patients in the United States using whole-genome sequencing.
