To Implement or Not to Implement? A Commentary on the Pitfalls of Judging the Value and Risks of Personalized Prognostic Statistical Models

To Implement or Not to Implement? A Commentary on the Pitfalls of Judging the Value and Risks of Personalized Prognostic Statistical Models

In doubt, one could provide only clinicians with access to the tool, allowing them to reduce the negative impact by using it only with patients who are hesitant to participate in the recommended treatment, and if this data may be saved, the model may be improved over time.

Trends and Shifts in Swedish Telemedicine Consultations During the Pre–COVID-19, COVID-19, and Post–COVID-19 Periods: Retrospective Observational Study

Trends and Shifts in Swedish Telemedicine Consultations During the Pre–COVID-19, COVID-19, and Post–COVID-19 Periods: Retrospective Observational Study

Early on, telemedicine referred to the use of technologies like radio to enable patient access to medical care in remote locations. However, with the advancement of technology, telemedicine has evolved and has been optimized to use sophisticated platforms that incorporate advanced computing and communication technologies [3,4].

From E-Patients to AI Patients: The Tidal Wave Empowering Patients, Redefining Clinical Relationships, and Transforming Care

From E-Patients to AI Patients: The Tidal Wave Empowering Patients, Redefining Clinical Relationships, and Transforming Care

In 2017, Jo PM joined JMIR Publications as a peer-reviewed, open access journal to advance the science of participatory care (also referred to as coproduction and co-design). Published papers mirror the 15-year shift in relationships between patients, their health information, and their providers. Health professionals often overestimate the risks of e-patients (patients and caregivers online) and underestimate their value [18].

Exploring Ethics: Understanding the Role of Privacy Policies and Institutional Review Boards in Digital Health Companies

In this case, Facebook’s privacy policy allowed third-party applications to access users’ data, but users were unaware that their data would be exploited for political profiling, which led to a significant breach of trust and a US $5 billion fine from the Federal Trade Commission [2]. A more recent case involved the meditation app Calm and its use of Twilio—a third-party service—for data collection [9].

Leveraging Technology to Engage Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Consumers With Children at Farmers Markets: Qualitative Community-Engaged Approach to App Development

These programs are often available at local farmers markets, and they have successfully improved access to fruits and vegetables, improved fruit and vegetable intake, and reduced food insecurity, particularly for low-income households [16-19]. Despite the benefits of nutrition incentives at farmers markets, lack of awareness about these opportunities limits their use.

Benchmarking the Confidence of Large Language Models in Answering Clinical Questions: Cross-Sectional Evaluation Study

Benchmarking the Confidence of Large Language Models in Answering Clinical Questions: Cross-Sectional Evaluation Study

A wide array of LLMs is now accessible, including open-source models, offering solutions that cater to both the public and medical professionals [1,4]. The efficacy of these models has been demonstrated in a variety of tasks, albeit with some limitations [5,6]. For instance, LLMs, such as GPT, have shown promise in providing diagnostic assistance and answering medical queries [5,7-9].

Use of Virtual Reality in the Pediatric Perioperative Setting and for Induction of Anesthesia: Mixed Methods Pilot Feasibility Study

Use of Virtual Reality in the Pediatric Perioperative Setting and for Induction of Anesthesia: Mixed Methods Pilot Feasibility Study

As for troubles with the mask seal, the headset had to be propped up to allow access to the nose and mouth. In another study, anesthesiologists rotated the mask 180 degrees, allowing for a better fit with the headset at the expense of the mask seal [20]. To our knowledge, 2 RCTs have assessed the efficacy of VR during induction of anesthesia. Samnakay et al compared a VR video to a 2 D video tablet, demonstrating similar efficacy between both technologies in reducing anxiety during induction.

Online Group–Based Dual-Task Training to Improve Cognitive Function of Community-Dwelling Older Adults: Randomized Controlled Feasibility Study

[Informant J] “The problem is that some resource-limited families don’t have Wi-Fi at home, so they have to go to the center to access it, which is less convenient.” [Informant K] “Initially, I felt very unfamiliar with it, but after a few more sessions, I absorbed new knowledge and it made my mind more agile.” [Informant G] “I think I can use my brain more, as I usually don’t use it much.” [Informant H] “My memory has been maintained without much decline.”

Power-Assist Add-Ons for Older Adult Manual Wheelchair Users: Protocol for a Scoping Review

Our review protocol has been registered on the Open Science Framework [13] and will be guided by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-Sc R) checklist extension for Scoping Reviews [14]. We will use the scoping review framework originally developed by Arksey and O’Malley [15] and incorporate additional refinements recommended by Levac et al [16].
