Background: The Strengthening and Stretching for Rheumatoid Arthritis of the Hand (SARAH) program is an evidence-based exercise program for adults with hand function difficulties due to rheumatoid arthritis. A self-guided online version of the program has been developed for direct access by patients.
Purpose: To evaluate the delivery of the online program in routine therapy care and its impact on clinical outcomes, before making it widely available.
Introduction: Microalgae provide a sustainable basis for protein-rich food production. However, human data concerning microalgae ingestion, subsequent postprandial amino acid (AA) availability and associated metabolic responses are minimal.
Objectives: We investigated ingesting sp.
Background And Objective: The etiology of prostate cancer (PC) is multifactorial and poorly understood. It has been suggested that colibactin-producing Escherichia coli positive for the pathogenicity island pks (pks) initiate cancers via induction of genomic instability. In PC, androgens promote oncogenic translocations.

Article Synopsis
- Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) models outperform traditional methods in healthcare predictions but face challenges with low interpretability, which hampers their practical use.
- Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) methods are proposed to improve understanding of these models; however, there is currently limited evaluation on their effectiveness.
- A scoping review of 76 studies from 3220 publications found a rise in XAI usage with predominant methods being SHAP, PD Plots, and LIME, but highlighted significant gaps in method reporting and the need for thorough evaluation before applying these techniques in healthcare.
