Creation of a personalized adherence feedback loop is crucial for initiating and sustaining health behavior change. However, self reports are not sufficient to measure actual adherence. Recording and recognizing personal activities in a ubiquitous environment has thus emerged as a promising solution. In this work, we present a model-driven sensor data assessment mechanism capable of identifying high level adherence-related activity patterns from low level signals. The proposed intelligent sensing algorithm can learn from a population-based training data set and adapt quickly to an individual's exercise patterns using the acquired personal data. Upon the recognition of each activity, the system can further provide personalized feedback such as exercise coaching, fitness planning, and abnormal event detection. The resulted system demonstrates the feasibility of a portable real-time personalized adherence feedback system that could be used for advanced healthcare services.

Right-wing authoritarianism (RWA) refers to an adherence to conventional values and authorities with the power to penalize groups that are perceived to challenge the cohesion of ingroup norms. Correspondingly, RWA has repeatedly been linked to negative perceptions of minoritized groups, such as refugees or religious minorities. To investigate whether and how sociocultural factors add to and moderate how RWA influences perceptions that minoritized groups pose a threat (i.

Objective: To provide insights and strategies for pegvaliase management in challenging cases with phenylketonuria (PKU) based on the first 5 years of experience with pegvaliase in real-world clinical practice.
Methods: Twelve PKU experts gathered during a one-day, in-person meeting to discuss clinical cases illustrating important lessons from their experiences treating patients with pegvaliase in real-world clinical practice. Challenges with pegvaliase experienced prior to and during treatment and corresponding strategies to overcome them were discussed.

This study is aimed at analyzing food safety knowledge and practices among food handlers in restaurants and street food markets in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Inadequate food handling practices remain a major worldwide health problem and are one of the main causes of food-related diseases. In Bangladesh, where the restaurant business is expanding quickly, food safety must be upheld to stop foodborne illness outbreaks.
