Home physical therapy versus telerehabilitation in improving motor function and quality of life in Parkinson's disease: a randomized controlled trial
CONCLUSIONS: Both HPT and TR have demonstrated effectiveness, safety, and feasibility in PwPD. However, the HPT program exhibited greater effectiveness among older patients and higher patient compliance compared to TR.
Compliance with reporting standards in Mobile App interventions for ART Adherence among PLHIV
CONCLUSION: Most mHealth interventions promoting ART adherence did not comply with the standard reporting guideline. The lack of standardization of mHealth interventions may be responsible for increased siloed mobile applications. Hence, there is a need for global adoption of the checklist by Ministries of Health, international organizations, journals, and relevant authorities.
