Assessment of Health System Readiness and Quality of Dementia Services in Peru: Protocol for a Qualitative Study With Stakeholder Interviews and Documentation Review

Assessment of Health System Readiness and Quality of Dementia Services in Peru: Protocol for a Qualitative Study With Stakeholder Interviews and Documentation Review

Dementia shares risk factors with many other common chronic diseases, including health-related behaviors (eg, unhealthy diet, smoking, and physical inactivity), as well as obesity, hypertension, diabetes, depression, and social isolation. Together, these factors account for 35% or more of the population-attributable risk (proportion of new cases of dementia due to the noted exposures).

A Narrative-Gamified Mental Health App (Kuamsha) for Adolescents in Uganda: Mixed Methods Feasibility and Acceptability Study

A Narrative-Gamified Mental Health App (Kuamsha) for Adolescents in Uganda: Mixed Methods Feasibility and Acceptability Study

When left unaddressed, common mental disorders such as depression and anxiety can profoundly impact the developmental trajectories of adolescents, with potentially long-lasting consequences that extend into adulthood [4]. Furthermore, the pervasive conditions of poverty, coupled with daily stressors such as exposure to violence and malnutrition, make adolescents in low-income communities more susceptible to developing mental health disorders [5,6].

An Ecological Momentary Assessment Approach of Environmental Triggers in the Role of Daily Affect, Rumination, and Movement Patterns in Early Alcohol Use Among Healthy Adolescents: Exploratory Study

An Ecological Momentary Assessment Approach of Environmental Triggers in the Role of Daily Affect, Rumination, and Movement Patterns in Early Alcohol Use Among Healthy Adolescents: Exploratory Study

The Incentive Sensitization Theory (IST) [24] proposes alcohol as a potentially rewarding stimulus that is liked at first (ie, its use is positively reinforced), for instance, due to its positive impact on mood and evolves into a so-called wanting in the course of addiction development, where its use is negatively reinforced for instance through the amelioration of negative mood states or craving [24].

Data Visualization Preferences in Remote Measurement Technology for Individuals Living With Depression, Epilepsy, and Multiple Sclerosis: Qualitative Study

Data Visualization Preferences in Remote Measurement Technology for Individuals Living With Depression, Epilepsy, and Multiple Sclerosis: Qualitative Study

Despite the additions, the thematic structure of the coding frame remained unchanged, comprising five central themes: (1) design preferences and recommendations, (2) data reporting, (3) impact of visualization, (4) moderators of visualization preferences, and (5) system-related factors and features. Table S2 in Multimedia Appendix 2 provides a list of quotes that are illustrative of these themes. Visualization of the 14 novel subthemes and 4 expanded core themes.

Design of a Tool Capable of Assessing Environmental Sociocultural Physical Factors Influencing Women’s Decisions on When and Where to Toilet Within Real-World Settings: Protocol for the Build and Usability Testing of a Mobile App for Use by Community-Dwelling Women

Design of a Tool Capable of Assessing Environmental Sociocultural Physical Factors Influencing Women’s Decisions on When and Where to Toilet Within Real-World Settings: Protocol for the Build and Usability Testing of a Mobile App for Use by Community-Dwelling Women

The Prevention of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (PLUS) research consortium aims to identify influences ranging from individual biological to broad ecological factors (eg, environmental, sociocultural, and physical factors) that promote bladder health and prevent the onset of LUTS [3]. The PLUS definition of bladder health is “a complete state of physical, mental, and social well-being related to bladder function and not merely the absence of LUTS.

Assessing the Role of the Autonomic Nervous System as a Driver of Sleep Quality in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis: Observation Study

Assessing the Role of the Autonomic Nervous System as a Driver of Sleep Quality in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis: Observation Study

While participants are awake, physical activity, stress, overall mood, and deep breathing [53,54] might impact HRV metrics. In the long run, ANS activity is also affected by MS disease progression [16]. While asleep, a possible explanation for the calculated effects of increased activity of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system is their behavior during rapid eye movement (REM) and non-REM sleep phases and their connection to stress.

Emerging Indications for Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment: Registry Cohort Study

Emerging Indications for Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment: Registry Cohort Study

Briefly, the registry is composed of hyperbaric centers that agree to follow the registry consortium agreement when becoming a member. Every site obtained institutional review board (IRB) approval and gathered informed consent in agreement with their IRB approval. Sites either obtain IRB approval from their own IRB or establish a reliance agreement with the IRB Dartmouth College (STUDY00024438).

Predicting Long COVID in the National COVID Cohort Collaborative Using Super Learner: Cohort Study

Predicting Long COVID in the National COVID Cohort Collaborative Using Super Learner: Cohort Study

Modifications to this approach, such as repeated cross-validation, may provide a benefit in finite sample situations, but given the large sample size available here in N3 C, these modifications would have little impact on performance in this context [8,9,19]. To tune the hyperparameters for the candidate algorithms, first, we randomly split the full data into a training set (with 0.9 of the sample) and a test set (0.1 of the sample).

Physiological Response to the COVID-19 Vaccine: Insights From a Prospective, Randomized, Single-Blinded, Crossover Trial

Physiological Response to the COVID-19 Vaccine: Insights From a Prospective, Randomized, Single-Blinded, Crossover Trial

This method adequately models the initial impact and subsequent adjustment postvaccination, better reflecting the complex temporal dynamics than linear models. In line with standard approaches to time-varying effect sizes [30], it reflects the differential impact of COVID-19 vaccination on biophysical parameters before their return to baseline.
