This chapter examines how PPCPs are often termed as micropollutants or trace organics, as these compounds are present in the µg/L range in the environment. PPCPs may pose a serious threat to aquatic life, having acute and chronic toxicity responses. As a result, there is a need for evolving technologies to detect, identify, and remediate compounds from these micropollutants.

This book chapter advances SDG 11 and 13 by explaining how businesses contributed to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the early years after the declaration of these Goals at the end of 2015. Samples were taken from Indonesian publicly listed companies that published sustainability reports during the period 2016–2018 after the SDGs adoption.
This study ties to all of the goals affected by climate change and health, including Goals 2, 3, 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, and 13, by investigating which methods by advocates work best to garner support for effective actions on climate change.
Background: People with dementia die prematurely. Identifying differences in mortality rates between different types of dementia might aid in the development of preventive interventions for the most vulnerable populations. The aim of this study was to compare the difference in mortality rates between individuals without dementia and individuals with various types of dementia.
Clinicians increasingly face the challenge of caring for patients who say that they would prefer death to life with advanced dementia.
These 5 professional virtues can be used to provide a practical framework for the professionally responsible design and implementation of medical missions.
