Wastewater-based surveillance of microbial pathogens in GCC countries (2015–2025)
Background: Wastewater-based surveillance (WBS) of microbial pathogens has become an increasingly useful approach to monitor public health at the population level. However, these efforts varied widely in scope, methodology and focus within the GCC region. It remains unclear how WBS is being used across the region, and to what extent it can inform decision-making or contribute to long-term surveillance infrastructure within the GCC. This review ai…

Current Strategies for Improvements in the Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease
There have been many promising developments in recent years. Several new targets have been identified and new drugs developed, or existing drugs adapted, to treat AD. However, there are problems with side-effects and specificity. A number of drugs have reduced β-amyloid/ phosphorylated tau levels and improved cognitive function in animal models and in humans but then produced no significant benefit in AD patients in phase 3 trials. Several strate…
