Surveillance of invasive fungal infection (IFI) requires laborious review of multiple sources of clinical information, while applying complex criteria to effectively identify relevant infections. These processes can be automated using artificial intelligence (AI) methodologies, including applying natural language processing (NLP) to clinical reports. However, developing a practically useful automated IFI surveillance tool requires consideration of the implementation context. We employed the Design Thinking Framework (DTF) to focus on the needs of end users of the tool to ensure sustained user engagement and enable its prospective validation. DTF allowed iterative generation of ideas and refinement of the final digital health solution. We believe this approach is key to increasing the likelihood that the solution will be implemented in clinical practice.

Department of Clinical, Neuro and Developmental Psychology, Amsterdam Public Health Research Institute, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
Background: There is a lack of self-report measures specifically designed for Adjustment disorder. One of the most widely used instruments is the Adjustment Disorder New Module (ADNM), which has already been validated in different countries. The aim of this study was to validate the Spanish version of the ADNM-20 with a non-clinical sample, including a comparison with a high-risk sample.

Background: Stroke is the leading cause of acquired motor deficiencies in adults. Restoring prehension abilities is challenging for individuals who have not recovered active hand opening capacities after their rehabilitation. Self-triggered functional electrical stimulation applied to finger extensor muscles to restore grasping abilities in daily life is called grasp neuroprosthesis (GNP) and remains poorly accessible to the post-stroke population.

Background: The global nursing shortage has particularly severe consequences in resource-constrained countries like Nepal, where a significant outflow of healthcare professionals exacerbates the crisis. While the impact on patient care, workforce dynamics, and organizational challenges within healthcare settings have been extensively researched, the profound implications of this crisis for nursing education remain underexplored. This qualitative study sheds light on the often-unseen consequences of the nursing shortage on undergraduate nursing students' clinical education.

School of Nursing, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, USA.
Background: The rapid development of digital technologies has fundamentally changed the care for older adults. However, not all older adults have equal opportunities to access and use the technologies, more importantly, be able to benefit from the technologies. We aimed to explore (1) the prevalence and the trend in the prevalence of digital divide in older adults, including digital access gap, digital use gap (specifically, using digital technologies for health commutation [e-communication gap]), and self-efficacy in information seeking gap (cognitive gap); (2) sociodemographic factors related to three perspectives of digital divide; and (3) the association between digital divide and self-rated health (exploratory).
