International Youth Day 2025
International Youth Day (IYD) is dedicated to drawing attention to the cultural and legal issues surrounding youth. Established by the United Nations in 1999, this day serves as a platform for governments and organizations to address the challenges faced by young people and to recognize their contributions to global development. Observed annually on August 12th, IYD encourages activities that promote awareness, dialogue, and action on youth-related issues.

This content aligns with Goal 3: Good Health and Goal 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure by discussing the relationship between sleep and mental health in athletes and exploring the infrastructure in place to manage athlete mental health.
This review provides a comprehensive overview of both conventional and novel therapeutic strategies for Alzheimer's disease (AD), highlighting traditional Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition and emerging approaches such as Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) inhibition, Tau Protein inhibitors, and COX-2 inhibition, while also exploring the roles of endocannabinoids, cholesterol-lowering drugs, and microRNA, alongside novel research tools and current clinical trials, to offer a consolidated resource for advancing AD treatment and research.
This study aimed to examine relationships among eating frequency, timing and time window, and cognitive performance and novel Alzheimer disease (AD) biomarkers in cognitively healthy and mildly cognitively impaired middle-aged and older adults. It concluded that an eating pattern characterized by less frequent eating and/or by earlier times is present in individuals with worse cognitive performance. The results shed light on the relevance of temporal eating patterns as potential early markers of behavioral or metabolic changes related to AD pathology.
Every year, 10 million people develop dementia, most commonly Alzheimer's disease (AD), and despite limited therapies and no prevention for cognitive decline, this review offers a neuroimmunological perspective on AD progression, focusing on the role of the NLRP3 inflammasome, its brain triggers, and the potential impact of various NLRP3 inhibitors currently under investigation in preclinical and clinical trials.
The study discusses the latest developments in Alzheimer’s disease treatment, with a focus on monoclonal antibodies and aptamers. It covers the current state of therapies, recent drug approvals, and future perspectives on immunotherapeutic strategies.
This study found that Alzheimer’s disease neuropathological change (ADNC) is associated with gene expression changes that may impair cholesterol biosynthesis in neurones but not astrocytes, whilst levels of cortical cholesterol show a weak relationship to dementia status.
This article discusses the impact of methionine oxidation on clusterin function in Alzheimer's disease, highlighting the elevated levels of MetO-clusterin in human and mouse brains affected by the disease, and how this oxidation compromises clusterin's chaperone function, potentially exacerbating beta-amyloid toxicity in Alzheimer's pathology.
With evident relevance to SDG 6, the research explores a water pollution control technology evaluation model based on the Pythagorean language neutrosophic set (PLNS) in the context of the pulp and paper industry. The authors' model aims to assist in the choice of appropriate water pollution control technology for those working within the paper industry. It is tested in an example based in China.
This study supports SDG 3 by analyzing expenditures on hepatitis B treatments, promoting better health resource management.
