Objective Founded in 1873, the Institut universitaire en santé mentale de Montréal (IUSMM) has a captivating history that significantly reflects the evolution of psychiatry over the years. In recent years, the primary sectors of modern medicine have turned to digital health innovations to enhance patient care development. The main objective of this review is to document advancements in digital health within the IUSMM and its affiliated research center over the past 150 years. Method An integrative review focusing on digital health innovations at the IUSMM was conducted. The Medline, Web of Science, PsycNet (PsycINFO), and Google Scholar databases were consulted from their inception until December 2023. Result The literature review initially identified 239 articles, with 108 duplicates removed during the preliminary analysis. Among the remaining 131 studies, 63 articles were excluded based on title and abstract review, as they did not meet inclusion criteria. After a comprehensive analysis of the initially selected 68 articles for eligibility evaluation, a total of 22 articles were retained. Five categories of articles were identified: virtual reality, digital applications, remote services and therapies, the use of artificial intelligence, and digital personal assistants. Conclusion On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the IUSMM, this integrative review reveals that digital health innovations are primarily concentrated in the last decade, suggesting promising potential for digital applications in supporting individuals with mental health disorders, although the transition to clinical practice may progress slowly.

Background/objectives: Evidence suggests nasal airflow resistance reduces after rapid maxillary expansion (RME). However, the medium-term effects of RME on upper airway (UA) airflow characteristics when normal craniofacial development is considered are still unclear. This retrospective cohort study used computer fluid dynamics (CFD) to evaluate the medium-term changes in the UA airflow (pressure and velocity) after RME in two distinct age-based cohorts.

Background: Use of health applications (apps) to support healthy lifestyles has intensified. Different app features may support effectiveness, including gamification defined as the use of game elements in a non-game situation. Whether health apps with gamification can impact behaviour change and cardiometabolic risk factors remains unknown.

Background: Adolescents (10-19 years old) have poor outcomes across the prevention-to-treatment HIV care continuum, leading to significant mortality and morbidity. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of interventions that documented HIV outcomes among adolescents in HIV high-burden countries.
Methods: We searched PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, and the Cochrane Library for studies published between January 2015 and September 2024, assessing at least one HIV outcome along the prevention-to-care cascade, including PrEP uptake, HIV testing, awareness of HIV infections, ARV adherence, retention, and virological suppression.

Background: Infant alertness and neurologic changes can reflect life-threatening pathology but are assessed by physical exam, which can be intermittent and subjective. Reliable, continuous methods are needed. We hypothesized that our computer vision method to track movement, pose artificial intelligence (AI), could predict neurologic changes in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).

Utricle is an important vestibular sensory organ for maintaining balance. 3,3'-iminodipropionitrile (IDPN), a prototype nitrile toxin, has been reported to be neurotoxic and vestibulotoxic, and can be used to establish an damage model of vestibular dysfunction. However, the mechanism of utricular HCs damage caused by IDPN is unclear.
