This study supports SDGs 3 and 5 with the right to abortion and access to care.
Large language models (LLMs) are positioned to become another destination for those seeking medical information. Consequently, the readability of these materials becomes an important factor in ensuring their effectiveness in promoting health literacy, given that the average American reads at the eighth-grade level. Supports SDGs 3 and 10.
This study aimed to assess the effect of exposure to organic pollutants in adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Bats are among the most diverse of all mammalian species and serve as reservoirs of zoonotic viruses responsible for several recent pandemics; new technologies are providing insights into how the unique physiology and lifestyle of bats drive tolerance to virus infection.
Because immune-related genes in humans are genetically closer to bats than mice, dissecting bat biology can catalyze the discovery and understanding of molecular players in human antiviral immunity.
This paper supports SDG 15 by highlighting that the effects of loss of biodiversity due to climate change and associated changes in the distribution of venomous snakes will be most pronounced in tropical regions, where extensive land is devoted to agriculture and rearing livestock.
Geriatric Apathy Scale establishes cut-offs for Parkinson’s (15.5) and Alzheimer’s disease (12.5) in clinical diagnosis.
This article supports SDG 3 by examining the effect of the National Dementia Care Policy in South Korea on costs in older patients with dementia.
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.
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.
