Objective: Mobile health (mHealth) technologies have emerged as promising tools in the field of neuro-physiotherapy, offering innovative solutions for enhancing clinical decision-making processes. This scoping review explores the existing literature on the use of mHealth applications in neuro-physiotherapy with a specific focus on their impact on clinical decision-making.
Materials And Methods: The PubMed, Google Scholar, Cochrane Library, ScienceDirect, and Scopus databases were comprehensively searched for both qualitative and quantitative peer-reviewed articles written in the English language and published till 2023 that focus on mHealth applications in neuro-physiotherapy and clinical decision-making.
Results: The key findings from the 14 included studies highlighted the diverse array of mHealth applications employed in neuro-physiotherapy, ranging from wearable sensors and mobile apps to virtual reality platforms. Synthesis of the evidence from these studies demonstrated the potential of these technologies in clinical decision-making and improving patient outcomes, patients' and therapists' perspectives of these applications, their clinical clues, and the challenges with their use.
Conclusions: The findings from the review underscore the need for continued exploration of these technologies to optimize their effectiveness in rehabilitation settings and ultimately improve clinical decision-making and patient care in neuro-physiotherapy.

Background: Groove pancreatitis (GP) is a form of pancreatitis that affects the pancreaticoduodenal groove area, which lies between the head of the pancreas, the second part of the duodenum and the distal bile duct, presenting as abdominal pain and gastric outlet obstruction. In this study, we present the clinical and radiological characteristics of individuals diagnosed with groove pancreatitis at our center and discuss the use of a conservative treatment approach in managing GP.
Methods: The data of patients with groove pancreatitis treated at our center between January 2012 and December 2021 was analyzed.

Kawasaki disease (KD) is a febrile vasculitis disorder, with coronary artery lesions (CALs) being the most severe complication. Early detection of CALs is challenging due to limitations in echocardiographic equipment (UCG). This study aimed to develop and validate an artificial intelligence algorithm to distinguish CALs in KD patients and support diagnostic decision-making at admission.

Objectives: To explore the predictive factors for non-response to intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) in children with Kawasaki disease (KD) and to establish an IVIG non-response prediction scoring model for the Sichuan region.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted by collecting clinical data from children with KD admitted to four tertiary hospitals in Sichuan Province between 2019 and 2023. Among them, 940 children responded to IVIG, while 74 children did not respond.

Anemia of prematurity (AOP) is a multifactorial condition associated with congenital iron deficiency, low erythropoietin levels, a short lifespan of red blood cells, and iatrogenic blood loss. AOP is a common complication in premature infants that can adversely affect growth, development, and long-term neurocognitive outcomes. To standardize the diagnosis and treatment of AOP, the Neonatal Clinical Practice Guidelines Expert Committee and the Neonatal Evidence-Based Medicine Group of the Commission of Neonatal Medicine of the Cross-Strait Medical and Health Exchange Association, along with the Editorial Office of the , have developed the "Clinical practice guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of anemia of prematurity (2025)", based on the World Health Organization's handbook for guideline development and the formulation/revision principles of Chinese clinical practice guidelines.

Aims: Studies evaluating the relationship between adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs), namely hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), with the estimated risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) remains limited and could inform patient-centred decision-making in the postpartum period. We examined whether HDP or GDM were associated with a higher 10- and 30-year predicted risk of ASCVD measured 10-14 years after delivery.
Methods: A secondary analysis from the international prospective Hyperglycemia and Adverse Pregnancy Outcome Follow-up Study (2013-2016) cohort.
