This article supports SDG 3 by investigating the association between moderate and vigorous physical activity and Alzheimer's disease mortality
This article reviews recent research on the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease, emphasizing the role of the gut-brain axis and examining clinical and preclinical studies on fermented foods, which have shown promising effects on amyloid-β metabolism, inflammation, and cognitive impairment, suggesting potential for new therapeutic and preventive measures for Alzheimer's disease.
Comprehensive review: summary of genetic factors, relation between gut microbiome and AD, overview of latest drugs, influence of lifestyle and diet, and pathophysiology of AD development.

This Article supports SDG 3 by showing that there is a high global seroprevalence of HCV infection among pregnant women (estimated at 2.2–5.3 million cases worldwide), and particularly in lower-income settings. The authors suggest policy implications, such as expanding screening programmes for pregnant women and women of childbearing age, particularly in lower-income settings.
This Article supports SDG 3 by providing estimates of HIV and hepatitis C testing and treatment uptake among people who inject drugs. Data availability was variable, and where data were available, uptake was generally suboptimal, indicating a need for countries to implement targeted interventions to improved testing, linkage to care, and treatment among people who inject drugs
10 December 2023 marks the 75th anniversary of one of the world's most groundbreaking global pledges: the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR).
Residents of Australia’s remote regions have lower life expectancies and poorer health outcomes than other Australians. Access to hospital and specialist care frequently requires transport via road or air and time spent away from family and community. The paper explores consumer perspective and identifies areas for improvement.
Human health, in the coming decades (and already in some “front-running” regions), is in peril. Although some authorities warn that over-stating such risks can induce paralysis and despair, under-stating them will not generate the intense action that is required. The impact of climate change on the Earth system is now so significant that the next ice age will likely be delayed by at least 50,000 years [201]. If humans do not rapidly change their collective behavior, then this may be their most enduring legacy. It is hoped that this chapter makes a small contribution to SDG3.
