This paper reviews the unique perspective that Indigenous People have on the HIV/AIDS epidemic, and the interactions between Indigenous Identities and HIV. The authors call for a human rights based approach to ending the HIV epidemic among Indigenous Peoples.
This Article supports SDG 3 by analysing peripartum antiviral prophylaxis for hepatitis B in 110 countries, finding that it could be beneficial in averting both neonatal hepatitis B infections and DALYS, and that it might be cost-effective depending on how it is implemented and the associated diagnostic costs.
This Perspective explores the sources of bias in medical machine learning, and how these can contribute to unequal performance, for example for women. The authors discuss methods for mitigating bias, hopefully leading to more equitable use of machine learning in healthcare.
This Health Policy paper supports SDG 3, 15, and 16 by highlighting how climate change and other human-induced environmental changes, such as loss of biodiversity and air pollution, disproportionately affect the health of minoritised people globally.
This review integrates the current evidence and potential mechanisms of gut microbiota and its metabolites in Alzheimer’s disease and comprehensively reviews the possibility of leveraging dietary interventions to prevent Alzheimer’s disease progression, with a focus on the gut–microbiota–brain connections and diet–metabolite–host interactions.

Water is a dwindling natural resource, and potable water is wrongly considered an unlimited resource. This review seeks to support policymakers in making informed decisions about water use, avoiding wasting, and finding solutions that may be planet friendly and patient friendly in dialysis, especially in hemodialysis treatments.
In this review, we summarized the potential therapeutic effects and related mechanisms of Panax ginseng in treating AD and VaD to provide some examples for further studies.
The study reveals that damage to the blood-brain barrier increases the proportion of microglia, a type of brain cell, which contributes to the progression of aging and Alzheimer's disease. It also identifies ten different functional types of microglia and underscores the significance of certain signalling pathways in communication between cells.
This article investigates the distribution and levels of tau and other neuronal proteins in the submandibular gland and frontal cortex of individuals at different clinicopathological stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD), revealing differential protein levels and the presence of unique tau species in peripheral tissues, providing insights into the relationship between peripheral tissues and AD progression.
