Endometriosis is a common chronic pain condition with no known cure and limited treatment options. Digital technologies, ranging from smartphone apps to wearable sensors, have shown potential toward facilitating chronic pain assessment and management; however, to date, many of these tools have not been specifically deployed or evaluated in patients with endometriosis-associated pain. Informed by previous studies in related chronic pain conditions, we discuss how digital technologies may be used in endometriosis to facilitate objective, continuous, and holistic symptom tracking. We postulate that these pervasive and increasingly affordable technologies present promising opportunities toward developing decision-support tools assisting healthcare professionals and empowering patients with endometriosis to make better-informed choices about symptom management.

Background: The rapid evolution of large language models (LLMs), such as Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT; Google) and GPT (OpenAI), has introduced significant advancements in natural language processing. These models are increasingly integrated into various applications, including mental health support. However, the credibility of LLMs in providing reliable and explainable mental health information and support remains underexplored.

Background: Psychologists have developed frameworks to understand many constructs, which have subsequently informed the design of digital mental health interventions (DMHIs) aimed at improving mental health outcomes. The science of happiness is one such domain that holds significant applied importance due to its links to well-being and evidence that happiness can be cultivated through interventions. However, as with many constructs, the unique ways in which individuals experience happiness present major challenges for designing personalized DMHIs.

Background: Lifestyle interventions have been acknowledged as effective strategies for preventing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, the accessibility of conventional face-to-face interventions is often limited. Digital health intervention has been suggested as a potential solution to overcome the limitation.

Background And Aims: Predicting progression and prognosis in Interstitial Lung Diseases (ILD), especially Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) and Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis (PPF), remains a challenge. Integrating patient-centered measurements is essential for earlier and safer detection of disease progression. Home monitoring through e-health technologies, such as spirometry and oximetry connected to smartphone applications, holds promise for early detection of ILD progression or acute exacerbations, enabling timely therapeutic interventions.
