Exposome research is focused on all the exposures individuals experience during their lifetime and how it shapes their health and development of disease. The chemical and biological aspects of the exposome are readily available in data formats. In comparison there is a lack of data frameworks available for physical factors (e.g. noise, lighting, electromagnetic fields) and their biological relationships which would allow a greater understanding of the contribution of the physical environment on disease development and burden. We present the construction of a prototype that captures knowledge on physical factors and their interactions with genes and diseases derived from the biomedical literature to reflect the physical exposome.Wrist-worn photoplethysmography (PPG) heart rate monitoring devices are increasingly used in clinical applications despite the potential for data missingness and inaccuracy. This paper provides an analysis of the intermittency of experimental wearable data recordings. Devices recorded heart rate with gaps of 5 or more minutes 41.6% of the time and 15 or more minutes 3.8% of the time.A scoping review was prepared in the first study phase of the REsPonSe project. The objective was to gain an overview of existing literature and available evidence on the subject of service robotics in nursing care. The systematic literature search took place using the following databases PubMed, CINAHL, Cochrane, Web of Science and IEEE Xplore. The titles and abstracts of 2.761 references were screened based on the inclusion criteria. A total of 31 articles were identified as relevant for the study.This scoping review gives an overview of current research activities in the field of very early mobilization with robotic devices of intensive care patients. It presents the effect of very early, robot-assisted mobilization on intensive care patients based on their outcomes.A crucial factor for successful cybersecurity education is how information is communicated to learners. Case-based learning of common cybersecurity issues has been shown to improve human behaviour for prevention. However, some delivery methods prevent realistic critical appraisal and reflection of awareness. Conversational agents can scaffold healthcare workers' understanding and promote deterrence strategies. The challenges of repurposing material to create a case-based agent were explored, and the ASPIRE process was modified. Heuristic evaluation from 10 experts in innovative educational technology resulted in the desired outcomes of usability, however Natural Language Understanding improvements were needed. Discussion of best practice when repurposing into conversational agents suggested modification of the ASPIRE process is feasible for future use.In a more and more demanding sector, healthcare leaders are in need of relevant and up-to-date competencies. The paper describes the iComPAss-project that aimed to increase the quality of a Master's programme for healthcare leaders, making sure that the competencies students are taught and should develop during their studies are aligned with what is relevant for their current and future practices. A method for identifying needed competencies in the field of practice was developed and used. This led to an understanding of the need for increased collaboration between the Master's programme, the field of practice, and working life.The European Commission published in 2019 the Recommendation on the European Electronic Health Record exchange format (EHRxF) to support citizens and healthcare providers in securely accessing and sharing EHRs. The European EHRxF is expected to contribute to the digital transformation of health and care in the digital single market empowering citizens and building a healthier society. This paper presents areas of work that need to be resolved for the European EHRxF to advance shared decision-making for patients and citizen-centered science.Using an online survey, we examined the relationships between the perceived usefulness, sensitivity, and anonymity of personal health data and people's willingness to share it with researchers. An analysis of 112 responses showed that people's willingness and perceptions are related to the type of the data, their trust in the data's anonymity, and their personal sociodemographic characteristics. In general, we found that people do not completely trust that their identities remain anonymous when sharing data anonymously with researchers. We also found that they are more willing to share personal health data with researchers if they perceive it as useful for public health research, not sensitive, and if they trust that their identity will remain anonymous after sharing it. We also found that people's age, gender, occupation, and region of residence may be related to their perceptions regarding the sharing of personal health data.Multiple challenges await third-party digital health services when trying to enter the health market. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ABT-888.html Prominent examples of such services are clinical decision support systems provided as external software. Uncertainty about their challenges, technical as well as legal, pose serious hurdles for many innovations to be adopted early on. There are many options and trade-offs to provide digital healthcare solutions as a third-party service. This paper discusses them by referring to a pharmacogenetic decision support service. By providing best-practices, scenario descriptions and templates designed for third-party services with respect to legal and technical issues, obstacles and uncertainties can be reduced, which will have an impact on better diagnoses and treatments in the healthcare system.COVID-19 pandemic is a global problem that raised the perception of stress to a completely new level, unseen so far in peace conditions. To reduce the level of stress and deal with its accumulated consequences, people enforce different strategies and coping mechanisms. In the vast amount of information available, imposed by the media, and often filled with falsehoods and catastrophizing related topics, it can be very challenging to distinguish the truth from falsehoods. The existence of an adequate level of digital literacy and e-Health literacy can help society to deal with that problem. Digital and e-Health literacy enables society to search for information efficiently, while remaining critical and open-minded, and use the newly adopted knowledge to improve our mental health. The aim of the paper was to present the frequency of news searches and trusting the COVID-19 related information in the group of medical professionals in Croatia. The survey was conducted using an online questionnaire, containing psychological questionnaires and relevant questions about everyday functioning.
