Global view on sea turtle conservation
This article discusses the association between stress exposure, alcohol consumption, and Alzheimer's Disease and related dementias (ADRD), emphasizing the importance of understanding behaviors that impact neurodegeneration and cognitive decline, and the need for preclinical research to uncover the underlying biological mechanisms.
In the field of nutrition and brain aging research, dietary patterns, particularly the MIND diet, are a prominent area of interest. This systematic review provides an overview of studies examining the MIND diet in relation to brain aging. It updates previous systematic reviews with respect to cognition, cognitive decline, and dementia and extends to other brain aging outcomes including Parkinson’s disease, brain volume, and pathology.
In this study, we introduced an integrated assessment framework, and estimated both quality and quantity-related Water Scarcity Index (WSI), local economic water scarcity risk (WSR), and the cascading virtual WSR observed in global trade markets across 40 major economies spanning from 1995 to 2010. Results show that developing countries had rapid growth in both quantity and quality-related WSI, while major developed economies experienced a modest increase in water stress but mitigated quality-related risks, suggesting imbalanced progress towards SDG 6 across countries.

eClinicalMedicine, Volume 69, March 2024
This Article supports SDG 3 by showing that providing hepatitis C testing services in pharmacies would be beneficial in increasing case detection, in keeping with growing evidence showing the benefits of providing hepatitis services in community settings. Further research is needed to evaluate the provision of hepatitis C treatment, and hepatitis B testing and treatment, in pharmacies
This study supports SDG 3 by examining the impact of early liver transplantation on hospital admissions for alcoholic hepatitis.
This study supports SDG 3 by providing insights into the mechanisms of autoimmune hepatitis and potential therapeutic targets.
