AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study is to systematically chart and summarize the literature pertaining to workplace health promotion (WHP) interventions targeting the five main modifiable lifestyle risk factors for chronic disease, including smoking, nutrition, alcohol, physical activity, overweight/obesity (SNAPO) in Australian workers.
Methods: A scoping review was performed using the framework of Arksey and O'Malley. MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, and SCOPUS were searched to identify peer-reviewed publications that evaluated primary or secondary WHP interventions which targeted one or more modifiable risk factor (SNAPO).
Results: A total of fifty-six articles were included in the review. The findings revealed a heterogeneous nature of WHP intervention design and evaluation. The majority of the interventions focussed on physical activity, with fewer targeting the other four main modifiable risk factors. Health care and white-collar workers were most frequently targeted, with less attention paid to other worker groups. The review also found that many interventions had a duration of three months or less.
Conclusions: Significant gaps have been identified in relation to the occupational role, risk factors targeted, and intervention length. This review also highlights the need for further research to be conducted to determine the efficacy of interventions to facilitate the development of a framework for WHP interventions to reduce the risk and prevalence of chronic disease.

Background: Long-term care facility employees' workload escalation intensifies negative risk for (nursing) staff health, residents, and the economy. Workplace health promotion (WHP) has emerged as a vital approach with positive impacts on employee well-being. This Scoping Review focuses on multimodal WHP programs in long-term care facilities, emphasizing barriers, facilitators, and the integration of complementary and integrative medicine (CIM).

The demand for accurate, user-friendly, and sensitive at-home nucleic acid testing solutions is rising due to occasional outbreaks of various infectious diseases and a growing desire for an improved quality of life. In response, we developed the WeD-mini, a compact, palm-sized isothermal fluorescent diagnostic IoT device that weighs just 61 g. The WeD-mini features a uniquely designed, highly sensitive optical sensing system, ultra-low power consumption, a minimalist industrial design, and an intelligent operating algorithm.

The rapid and accurate detection of viral infections is essential for effective disease management and prevention. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) remains the gold standard for viral detection due to its high sensitivity and specificity. However, its limitations-including the need for specialized equipment, trained personnel, and longer processing times-make it impractical for at-home or rapid testing.

Objective: To gain insight into 1) the degree of implementation of an integrated workplace health promotion program (WHPP) 2) the perceptions of employers and employees regarding an integrated WHPP and 3) the contextual factors that hindered or enhanced implementation.
Methods: Data were collected by means of questionnaires, interviews among 19 employees, supervisors and HR-professionals, monitoring charts and observations at 6-10 months after the start of the implementation of the integrated WHPP. To evaluate the implementation process, ten process indicators from the evaluation frameworks of Nielsen & Randall and Wierenga were assessed.

Article Synopsis
- The ONWARDS phase 3a trials compared once-weekly insulin icodec to once-daily basal insulin for managing type 2 diabetes, focusing on participant and physician experiences.
- Patient-reported outcomes showed significantly greater treatment satisfaction with insulin icodec, particularly due to its less frequent injection schedule and ease of use.
- Both participants and physicians expressed a strong preference for once-weekly injections over daily ones, highlighting the advantages of convenience and willingness to continue treatment.
