With the advent of SARS-CoV-2, several studies have shown that there is a higher mortality rate in patients with diabetes and, in some cases, it is one of the side effects of overcoming the disease. However, there is no clinical decision support tool or specific treatment protocols for these patients. To tackle this issue, in this paper we present a Pharmacological Decision Support System (PDSS) providing intelligent decision support for COVID-19 diabetic patient treatment selection, based on an analysis of risk factors with data from electronic medical records using Cox regression. The goal of the system is to create real world evidence including the ability to continuously learn to improve clinical practice and outcomes of diabetic patients with COVID-19.

Purpose: Continuous EEG (cEEG) monitoring is increasingly used in the management of neonates with seizures. There remains debate on what clinically relevant information can be gained from cEEG in neonates with suspected seizures, at high risk for seizures, or with definite seizures, as well as the use of cEEG for prognosis in a variety of conditions. In this guideline, we address these questions using American Clinical Neurophysiology Society structured methodology for clinical guideline development.

Objective: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent complication in critically ill patients, affecting up to 50% of patients in the intensive care units. The lack of standardized and open-source tools for applying the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria to time series, requires researchers to implement classification algorithms of their own which is resource intensive and might impact study quality by introducing different interpretations of edge cases. This project introduces pyAKI, an open-source pipeline addressing this gap by providing a comprehensive solution for consistent KDIGO criteria implementation.

Traditional engagement with local governments often relies on financial and human resources from international or local partners, leading to direct implementation by organizations, which can hinder sustainability. While some organizations include sustainability indicators, few focus on transferring technical and financial ownership to governments. The Challenge Initiative (TCI) uses a phased coaching model-lead, assist, observe, and monitor-to build local government capacity for scaling family planning (FP) and adolescent and youth sexual and reproductive health (AYSRH) programs.

Telerehabilitation is a new form of care that provides digital access to rehabilitative services. However, it places many demands on the users-both patients and therapists. The aim of this study was to determine the requirements and competencies needed for successful usage, identify person- and context-specific differences and develop a competency model.
