Behavioral digital therapeutics represents a diverse range of health technology tools that can offer beneficial options for patients with gastrointestinal disorders, particularly with the shortage of mental health providers. Challenges to the uptake of behavioral digital interventions exist and can be addressed with mobile device applications, improved interoperability of technology platforms, and flexible integration into clinical practice.

Background: The transition from military service to civilian life presents a variety of challenges for veterans, influenced by individual factors such as premilitary life, length of service, and deployment history. Mental health issues, physical injuries, difficulties in relationships, and identity loss compound the reintegration process. To address these challenges, various face-to-face and internet-based programs are available yet underused.

Digital Health Solutions for Cardiovascular Disease Prevention: Systematic Review.

J Med Internet Res

January 2025

Centre for Research in Media and Communication, Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, Selangor, Malaysia.

Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major global health issue, with approximately 70% of cases linked to modifiable risk factors. Digital health solutions offer potential for CVD prevention; yet, their effectiveness in covering the full range of prevention strategies is uncertain.

Objective: This study aimed to synthesize current literature on digital solutions for CVD prevention, identify the key components of effective digital interventions, and highlight critical research gaps to inform the development of sustainable strategies for CVD prevention.

The dynamics of neuronal systems are characterized by hallmark features such as oscillations and synchrony. However, it has remained unclear whether these characteristics are epiphenomena or are exploited for computation. Due to the challenge of selectively interfering with oscillatory network dynamics in neuronal systems, we simulated recurrent networks of damped harmonic oscillators in which oscillatory activity is enforced in each node, a choice well supported by experimental findings.

Post-surgical rehabilitation advice after ankle fracture surgery, particularly regarding weight-bearing, varies significantly, leading to patient frustration and inconsistent recovery outcomes. This study aimed to establish a consensus for ankle fracture rehabilitation advice and identify content and implementation options for future interventions through consultation with healthcare professionals (HCPs). This study was part of the weight-bearing in ankle fractures (WAX) trial, a multicentre, randomised controlled trial.

The detection of disease-related protein biomarkers plays a crucial role in the early diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of diseases. The concentrations of protein biomarkers can vary significantly in different diseases or stages of the same disease. However, most of the existing analytical methods cannot simultaneously meet the requirements of high sensitivity and a wide dynamic range.
