[Benefits of participatory involvement of patients in the development of a dermatological treatment app-A report from the practice].

Approximately 2% of the German population suffer from psoriasis. HybridVITA has developed a mobile application (app) that enables psoriasis patients to independently document the progression of the disease and the current psychological stress at home. The HybridVITA app was created in close collaboration with user groups to ensure optimal adaptation to their needs.

Nanosecond multipulse retinal damage thresholds of elongated irradiance profiles in explant measurements and simulations.

Significance: The database for multipulse retinal damage thresholds for the laser safety standard (IEC 60825-1:2014) is confined, especially for elongated irradiation profiles. To ensure eye safety, retinal damage thresholds ( values) need to be determined.

Aim: This study aims to examine nanosecond multipulse scenarios.

Dimensional emotion recognition from camera-based PRV features.

Heart rate variability (HRV) is an important indicator of autonomic nervous system activity and can be used for the identification of affective states. The development of remote Photoplethysmography (rPPG) technology has made it possible to measure pulse rate variability (PRV) using a camera without any sensor-skin contact, which is highly correlated to HRV, thus, enabling contactless assessment of emotional states. In this study, we employed ten machine learning techniques to identify emotions using camera-based PRV features.

Model-Driven Dementia Prevention and Intervention Platform.

Most types of dementia, including Alzheimer's disease, are not curable. However, there are risk factors, such as obesity or hypertension, that can promote the development of dementia. Holistic treatment of these risk factors can prevent the onset of dementia or delay it in its early stages.

Digital Health Apps in the Context of Dementia: Questionnaire Study to Assess the Likelihood of Use Among Physicians.

Background: Age-related diseases such as dementia are playing an increasingly important role in global population development. Thus, prevention, diagnostics, and interventions require more accessibility, which can be realized through digital health apps. With the app on prescription, Germany made history by being the first country worldwide to offer physicians the possibility to prescribe and reimburse digital health apps as of the end of the year 2020.
