Diabetic retinopathy is a microvascular complication of diabetes mellitus that is usually asymptomatic in the early stages. Therefore, its timely detection and treatment are essential. First pilot projects exist to establish a smartphone-based and AI-supported screening of DR in primary care. This study explored health professionals' perceptions of potential barriers and enablers of using a screening such as this in primary care to understand the mechanisms that could influence implementation into routine clinical practice. Semi-structured telephone interviews were conducted and analysed with the help of qualitative analysis of Mayring. The following main influencing factors to implementation have been identified: personal attitude, organisation, time, financial factors, education, support, technical requirement, influence on profession and patient welfare. Most determinants could be relocated in the behaviour change wheel, a validated implementation model. Further research on the patients' perspective and a ranking of the determinants found is needed.

Prevalence and correlates of postpartum PTSD following emergency cesarean sections: implications for perinatal mental health care: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
BMC Psychol
January 2025
Department of Midwifery, University of West Attica, Athens, Greece.
Background: The increasing awareness of the emotional consequences of emergency cesarean deliveries (C-sections) highlights their substantial role in fostering postpartum post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to evaluate the prevalence and determinants of PTSD following emergency C-sections, as well as the implications of these events on maternal mental health and welfare.
Methods: Undertaking extensive searches of Scopus, PubMed, PsycINFO, and Google Scholar, we have incorporated studies published from 2013 onwards that examined the occurrence of PTSD following emergency C-sections.
Sarcolemma resilience and skeletal muscle health require O-mannosylation of dystroglycan.

Department of Molecular Physiology and Biophysics, and Department of Neurology, Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Senator Paul D. Wellstone Muscular Dystrophy Specialized Research Center, Roy J. and Lucille A. Carver College of Medicine, The University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa, USA.
Background: Maintaining the connection between skeletal muscle fibers and the surrounding basement membrane is essential for muscle function. Dystroglycan (DG) serves as a basement membrane extracellular matrix (ECM) receptor in many cells, and is also expressed in the outward-facing membrane, or sarcolemma, of skeletal muscle fibers. DG is a transmembrane protein comprised of two subunits: alpha-DG (α-DG), which resides in the peripheral membrane, and beta-DG (β-DG), which spans the membrane to intracellular regions.

The equivalent value (EV)-based workload assessment of primary healthcare workers in Beijing, China.
Hum Resour Health
January 2025
Health Development Research Department, Capital Institute of Pediatrics, Beijing, 100020, People's Republic of China.
Background: Quantitative methods for estimating the workload of primary healthcare (PHC) workers are essential for improving the performance of PHC institutions. However, measuring the workload of PHC workers is challenging due to the diverse and complex range of services covered by PHC. This study aims to use an equivalent value (EV)-based approach to assess the workload of PHC workers and inform policymakers about the current workload burden in Beijing, China.

Background: Waste and fraud are important problems for health insurers to deal with. With the advent of big data, these insurers are looking more and more towards data mining and machine learning methods to help in detecting waste and fraud. However, labeled data is costly and difficult to acquire as it requires expert investigators and known care providers with atypical behavior.
