Purpose: Despite recent advances, gender inequality remains a major concern within the workforce. One manifestation of gender inequality in academia is the undercitation of women-authored compared to men-authored papers that is thought to reflect implicit biases and has important implications for the academic advancement for research-intensive female faculty. These studies largely stem from male-dominant professions.

Its discomfort makes long-term monitoring unfeasible, leading to bias in sleep quality assessment. Hence, less invasive, cost-effective, and portable alternatives need to be explored.

Crystal growth of 2-(3,4,5-triphen-ylphen-yl)acetic acid () from aceto-nitrile yields a monosolvate, CHO·CHCN, of the space group 1. In the crystal, the title mol-ecule adopts a conformation in which the three phenyl rings are arranged in a paddlewheel-like fashion around the central arene ring and the carboxyl residue is oriented nearly perpendicular to the plane of this benzene ring. Inversion-symmetric dimers of O-H⋯O-bonded mol-ecules of represent the basic supra-molecular entities of the crystal structure.

Method: A double-blind, within-subject, sham-controlled crossover design was used. Eight participants with PPA were enrolled.
The impact of digital health technologies on moral responsibility: a scoping review.
Med Health Care Philos
November 2024
Article Synopsis
- Recent research on digital health technologies emphasizes the need for 'responsible' usage but often lacks clear definitions of what responsibility entails, leading to potential misunderstandings in healthcare delivery.
- The study examined 34 articles to understand how responsibility is interpreted in digital health realms, discovering that these technologies can alter roles among caregivers, patients, and devices and that moral responsibility is frequently misunderstood as merely accountability.
- The findings suggest a 'responsibility gap' in AI outcomes where no single party is held accountable, and raise questions about the appropriateness of increasing patient accountability through m-Health technologies, while calling for further exploration of collective responsibility and virtues in digital health.
