  • Global, regional, and national progress towards Sustainable Development Goal 3.2 for neonatal and child health

    Open AccessKatherine R Paulson, Katherine Paulson et al.ARTICLEThe Lancet2021

    BACKGROUND: Sustainable Development Goal 3.2 has targeted elimination of preventable child mortality, reduction of neonatal death to less than 12 per 1000 livebirths, and reduction of death of children younger than 5 years to less than 25 per 1000 livebirths, for each country by 2030.

  • The mobility of arsenic from highly polluted farmlands to wheat

    Open AccessKamaladdin Karimyan, Mahmood Alimohammadi et al.ARTICLELand Degradation and Development2020

    Arsenic (As) can be transferred from soil and accumulated in food plants. So far, we have a knowledge gap about transference of As from agricultural soils to wheat plant in the natural polluted environment. The aim of present study was to investigate As transfer from soil to different tissues of wheat at a highly As polluted area. In this regard, the mobility indices were used to explain As transfer and accumulation from soil to wheat plant. More…
