The value of 'data-enabled', digital healthcare is evolving rapidly, as demonstrated in the COVID-19 pandemic, and its successful implementation remains complex and challenging. Harmonisation (within/between healthcare systems) of infrastructure and implementation strategies has the potential to promote safe, equitable and accessible digital healthcare, but guidance for implementation is lacking. Using respiratory technologies as an example, our scoping review process will capture and review the published research between 12th December 2013 to 12th December 2023.

Methods: 12 participants with Bulimia Nervosa, one male, were interviewed with the help of an interview guide. Interviews were recorded and transcribed.
Whole genome sequencing has transformed rare disease research; however, 50-80% of rare disease patients remain undiagnosed after such testing. Regular reanalysis can identify new diagnoses, especially in newly discovered disease-gene associations, but efficient tools are required to support clinical interpretation. Exomiser, a phenotype-driven variant prioritisation tool, fulfils this role; within the 100,000 Genomes Project (100kGP), diagnoses were identified after reanalysis in 463 (2%) of 24,015 unsolved patients after previous analysis for variants in known disease genes.

Adult female elephant seals at Año Nuevo Reserve and other colonies along the west coast of North America were tracked annually from 2004 to 2020, resulting in a total of 653 instrument deployments. This paper outlines the compilation and curation process of these high-resolution diving and location data, now accessible in two Dryad repositories.
