Electrocardiogram (ECG) signal represents autonomous nervous system responses to human emotional states. This research demonstrates that the spectral ECG features within ultra-short-term window duration (10-sec) could be utilized to monitor human emotional states. Experiments were conducted with five different stress protocols including mental and physical tasks. Experimental results showed feasible classification performance of ECG spectral features compared to that of HRV parameters. The averaged classification accuracy across 13 subjects and all stress protocols was 81.16% using Naïve Bayes algorithm. In addition, the results showed stress responses in mental arithmetic tasks was the most separable from those in resting states (87.31%) compared to the other stress situations.

Background: Black adults in the United States experience disproportionately high rates of tobacco- and obesity-related diseases, driven in part by disparities in smoking cessation and physical activity. Smartphone-based interventions with financial incentives offer a scalable solution to address these health disparities.

Objective: This study aims to assess the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a mobile health intervention that provides financial incentives for smoking cessation and physical activity among Black adults.

People spend about 90% of their day indoors and are at increased risk of exposure to metal elements (MEs), water-soluble ions (WSIs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) contained in indoor PM. Therefore, firstly this study investigated indoor PM pollution to explore the distribution characteristics of MEs, WSIs and PAHs. Secondly, the carcinogenic risk of MEs and PAH to the population was analyzed using health risk assessment models.

Division of Endocrinology & Metabolism, Department of Internal Medicine, Yeouido St. Mary's Hospital, College of Medicine, The Catholic University of Korea, Seoul, Korea.

Unlabelled: This study compared denosumab and zoledronic acid for treating osteoporosis in drug-naïve postmenopausal Korean women. Over 3 years, both drugs significantly increased bone mineral density. However, denosumab also improved fat-free mass, suggesting it may be a better initial treatment for osteoporosis with low muscle mass, assuming all other conditions remain constant.

Smart homes have the potential to enable remote monitoring of the health and well-being of older adults, leading to improved health outcomes and increased independence. However, current approaches only consider a limited set of daily activities and do not combine data from individuals. In this work, we propose the use of deep learning techniques to model behavior at the population level and detect significant deviations (i.
