The HOTspots digital surveillance platform (HOTspots) is a critical technology of the HOTspots Surveillance and Response Program. It provides timely point-of-care access to pathology and demographic data from previously underserved regions. Co-designed with clinicians, epidemiologists, and health policy makers, the platform provides the evidence-base to empower efficient clinical management of patients with antimicrobial resistant (AMR) infections and supports national disease surveillance efforts in Australia. The pathway from conceptualisation to deployment for the HOTspots digital surveillance platform is described.

In recent years, Prognostics and Health Management (PHM) have been considered in broad industrial areas to improve the effectiveness of maintenance activities. In chemical engineering domains, PHM is regarded to have big potential for reliability and safety management of complex systems. In this study, a bibliometric analysis has been conducted to explore the evolution of PHM by retrieving 2351 publications from the Web of Science Core Collection (Retrieve date: 12/05/2023).

Sensitive detection of disease-specific biomarkers with high accuracy is crucial for early diagnosis, therapeutic monitoring, and understanding underlying pathological mechanisms. Traditional methods, such as immunohistochemistry and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), face limitations due to the complex and expensive production of antibodies. In this context, aptamers, short oligonucleotides with advantages like easy synthesis, low cost, high specificity, and stability, have emerged as promising alternatives for biomolecular sensing.

Article Synopsis
  • The study compares the effectiveness of ultrasensitive real-time PCR and droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) in detecting specific mutations associated with breast cancer in primary tumors and liquid biopsy samples.
  • The research involved analyzing genetic material from 42 tumor samples and 29 plasma samples from patients with ER+ metastatic breast cancer, as well as samples from healthy donors.
  • Results showed that both methods provided similar detection rates for certain mutations in tumor samples, with ultrasensitive real-time PCR performing better in plasma-cfDNA samples, indicating potential for non-invasive testing in cancer management.

The Caribbean small island developing states have limited resources for comprehensive health care provision and are facing an increasing burden of noncommunicable diseases which is driven by an aging regional population. Artificial intelligence (AI) and other digital technologies offer promise for contributing to health care efficiencies, but themselves are dependent on the availability and accessibility of accurate health care data. A regional shortfall in data professionals continues to hamper legislative recognition and promotion of increased data production in Caribbean countries.

Weather prediction is of great significance for human daily production activities, global extreme climate prediction, and environmental protection of the Earth. However, the existing data-based weather prediction methods cannot adequately capture the spatial and temporal evolution characteristics of the target region, which makes it difficult for the existing methods to meet practical application requirements in terms of efficiency and accuracy. Changes in weather involve both strongly correlated spatial and temporal continuation relationships, and at the same time, the variables interact with each other, so capturing the dynamic correlations among space, time, and variables is particularly important for accurate weather prediction.
