Smartphone digital image colorimetry (SDIC), combined with solidification of floating organic drop-dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (SFOD-DLLME), was proposed for the determination of iodate ions. A colorimetric box was designed to capture images of sample solutions. Factors affecting the efficiency of SDIC included type of phone, region of interest, position of camera, and distance between camera and sample solution. Optimum SFOD-DLLME conditions were achieved with 1-undecanol (500 µL) as the extraction solvent, ethanol (1.5 mL) as the disperser solvent within 20 s extraction time. Limit of detection (LOD) was found as 0.1 µM (0.2 µg g) and enrichment factors ranged between 17.4 and 25.0. Calibration graphs showed good linearity with coefficients of determination higher than 0.9954 and relative standard deviations lower than 5.6%. The proposed method was efficiently applied to determine iodate in table salt samples with percentage relative recoveries ranging between 89.3 and 109.3%.

Background: Loneliness is a significant issue among older Asian Americans, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Older age, lower income, limited education, and immigrant status heighten loneliness risk. Information communication technologies (ICTs) have been associated with decreased loneliness among older adults.

Background: Heart failure (HF) is a common and deadly disease, precipitated by physical inactivity and sedentary behavior. Although the 1-year survival rate after the first diagnosis is high, physical inactivity and sedentary behavior are associated with increased mortality and negatively impact the health-related quality of life (HR-QoL).

Objective: We tested the recruitment frequency, implementation fidelity, and feasibility of outcomes of the Activity Coach app that was developed using an existing mobile health (mHealth) tool, Optilogg, to support older adults with HF to be more physically active and less sedentary.

Background: Many members of Black American communities, faced with the high prevalence of Alzheimer disease and related dementias (ADRD) within their demographic, find themselves taking on the role of informal caregivers. Despite being the primary individuals responsible for the care of individuals with ADRD, these caregivers often lack sufficient knowledge about ADRD-related health literacy and feel ill-prepared for their caregiving responsibilities. Generative AI has become a new promising technological innovation in the health care domain, particularly for improving health literacy; however, some generative AI developments might lead to increased bias and potential harm toward Black American communities.

Individuals living in rural areas report poorer health outcomes, including obesity, compared to individuals living in urban areas. Amongst others, this is due to restricted access to opportunities for healthy eating and physical activity. Interventions are urgently needed to address this gap.
