Effectiveness of health-promoting lifestyle training on mental well-being, vitality, and quality of life of elderly with diabetes.

This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of health-promoting lifestyle (HPL) training on the mental well-being, vitality, and quality of life (QoL) of the elderly with diabetes. This was a quasi-experimental study based on a pre-test-post-test design with experimental and control groups. The statistical population consisted of all elderly with diabetes who were members of the Diabetes Association of Ahvaz in 2021, of whom 40 elderlies were selected as the sample through the convenience sampling method.

Machine learning seizure prediction: one problematic but accepted practice.

Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders and can have a devastating effect on a person's quality of life. As such, the search for markers which indicate an upcoming seizure is a critically important area of research which would allow either on-demand treatment or early warning for people suffering with these disorders. There is a growing body of work which uses machine learning methods to detect pre-seizure biomarkers from electroencephalography (EEG), however the high prediction rates published do not translate into the clinical setting.
