This survey sampled today's European practices in the use of remote monitoring (RM) for the follow-up of active cardiovascular implantable electronic devices. Eighty-five per cent of the responding centres are currently using RM. For the majority, RM is expected to increase importantly within 5 years, and it has already led to a new organization of care based on dedicated allied professionals and/or the creation of RM units. There are still major limitations for the development of RM, such as ethical and legal aspects, reimbursement issues, and the lack of specific national- and European-updated guidelines which need to be informed.

Rapid urbanization in Lahore has dramatically transformed land use and land cover (LULC), significantly impacting the city's thermal environment and intensifying climate change and sustainable development challenges. This study aims to examine the changes in the urban landscape of Lahore and their impact on the Urban thermal environment between 1990 and 2020. The previous studies conducted on Lahore lack the application of Geospatial artificial intelligence (GeoAI) to quantify land use and land cover, which is successfully covered in this study.

Background: Plasma biomarkers have emerged as a promising tool to detect the presence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) when cognitive symptoms have not yet emerged. However, there is also a pressing need to detect and track subtle cognitive change at the preclinical stage of AD for population screening purposes and to monitor disease progression at scale. A potential solution is remote cognitive assessment, yet it is still not extensively employed.

Background: Subjective cognitive concerns are common in functionally intact adults, potentially indicating future cognitive decline. Remote smartphone cognitive testing holds promise for objectively tracking cognition in individuals reporting complaints. In our initial exploration of the link between subjective cognitive complaints and digital clinical outcomes, we examined participants' self-reported cognitive complaints' association with smartphone tests on memory and executive functioning.

Background: Modernizing the remote patient monitoring (RPM) infrastructure in Indonesia has historically been limited by the unmet need of access to internet connectivity. New advancements made possible by Starlink and the internet of things (IoT) for RPM present new opportunities to connect people separated by geography and diverse cultural variations which includes over 700 languages and dialects. Alzheimer's disease has increased by 87% from 2019 to 2022 and similar challenges in the United States apply to Indonesia; the cost of care, nurse shortage, and large aging population.
