Factors Influencing Medical Prescribers' Acceptance of Pharmacists' Recommendations in Non-hospitalized Older Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Objectives: To investigate the rate of, and factors affecting, acceptance of pharmacists' recommendations by medical prescribers following medication reviews conducted in non-hospitalized older adults.

Design: A systematic review and meta-analysis with meta-regression.

Setting And Participants: Older adults (mean aged ≥55 years) residing in the community or in aged care facilities (ie, non-hospitalized) who had received an individualized medication review by a pharmacist.

The 'Brussels 4': essential requirements for implantable brain-computer interface user autonomy.

Implantable brain-computer interfaces (iBCIs) hold great promise for individuals with severe paralysis and are advancing toward commercialization. The features required to achieve autonomous use of an iBCI may be under recognized in traditional academic measures of iBCI function and deserve further consideration to achieve successful clinical translation and patient adoption. Here, we present four key considerations to achieve autonomous use, reflecting the authors' perspectives based on discussions during various sessions and workshops across the 10th International BCI Society Meeting, Brussels, 2023: (1) immediate use, (2) easy to use, (3) continuous use, and (4) stable system use.

Brain-Computer Interfaces Using Flexible Electronics: An a-IGZO Front-End for Active ECoG Electrodes.

Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are evolving toward higher electrode count and fully implantable solutions, which require extremely low power densities (<15mW cm). To achieve this target, and allow for a large and scalable number of channels, flexible electronics can be used as a multiplexing interface. This work introduces an active analog front-end fabricated with amorphous Indium-Gallium-Zinx-Oxide (a-IGZO) Thin-Film Transistors (TFTs) on foil capable of active matrix multiplexing.
