Background: Self-guided internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy (ICBT) achieves greater reach than ICBT delivered with therapist guidance, but demonstrates poorer engagement and fewer clinical benefits. Alternative models of care are required that promote engagement and are effective, accessible, and scalable.

Objective: This randomized trial evaluated whether a stepped care approach to ICBT using therapist guidance via videoconferencing for the step-up component (ICBT-SC[VC]) is noninferior to ICBT with full therapist delivery by videoconferencing (ICBT-TG[VC]) for child and adolescent anxiety.

Socio-spatial analysis of Australian residential care facilities: A case study of traditional, medium, and small household models.

J Aging Stud

December 2024

School of Architecture and Built Environment, Faculty of Science, Engineering and Built Environment, Deakin University, Geelong, Australia. Electronic address:

While it is imperative to develop building design innovation to adapt to new care models and organisational processes in residential care facilities, there is a lack of research evidence on the interplay between design and resident lived experience, particularly when examined through a building design lens. This study aims to explore the building design factors that contribute to residents' quality of life (QoL), and thus, their ability to find home. The research objectives are to: 1) document and analyse the layout and spatial design of three different typologies (Traditional, Medium, and Small Household models) against key QoL themes and the residents' everyday lived use and sense of feeling at home; and 2) compare the architectural, layout, and lived use of the three typologies through a socio-spatial lens.

Article Synopsis
  • Patients with brain tumors want to help doctors understand their illness better by participating in tests that involve taking samples of their tumor tissue.
  • To improve treatments, everyone including patients, researchers, and regulatory agencies need to work together and use consistent methods when taking these samples.
  • Even though new tests using blood samples show some promise, they can't replace the need for the usual tissue tests just yet, and it's important to clearly explain the risks and benefits of these procedures to patients.

COVID-19 healthcare success or failure? Crisis management explained by dynamic capabilities.

BMC Health Serv Res

June 2024

Department of Engineering Science, University West, Gustava Melins gata 2, Trollhättan, 46132, Sweden.

Introduction: This paper presents a structured review of the use of crisis management, specifically examining the frameworks of surge capacity, resilience, and dynamic capabilities in healthcare organizations. Thereafter, a novel deductive method based on the framework of dynamic capabilities is developed and applied to investigate crisis management in two hospital cases during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic distinguishes itself from many other disasters due to its global spread, uncertainty, and prolonged duration.
