Six-month outcomes after a GP phone call during the first French COVID-19 lockdown (COVIQuest): a cluster randomised trial using medico-administrative databases
CONCLUSIONS: The intervention was associated with higher rates of hospitalisation at 6 months in patients with MHD or CVD. No intervention impact was found in outpatient care. These results are difficult to interpret because of a potential artefact induced by national campaigns promoting medical use during lockdown, overlapping the study inclusion period. This study showed […]
Evaluating the effectiveness of the Smart About Meds (SAM) mobile application among patients discharged from hospital: protocol of a randomised controlled trial
INTRODUCTION: Almost half of patients discharged from hospital are readmitted or return to the emergency department (ED) within 90 days. Non-adherence to medication changes made during hospitalisation and the use of potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs) both contribute to postdischarge adverse events. We developed Smart About Meds (SAM), a patient-centred mobile application that targets medication non-adherence […]
Tushirikiane-4-Uthabiti (Supporting Each Other For Resilience): study protocol of a mental health, HIV self-testing and livelihoods randomised controlled trial for advancing HIV prevention outcomes among urban refugee youth in Kampala, Uganda
INTRODUCTION: Research with urban refugee youth in Uganda has documented co-occurring social (e.g., poverty) and health (e.g., depression) disparities associated with HIV vulnerabilities. Benefits of HIV self-testing (HIVST) in increasing HIV testing uptake among youth are well established, yet limited interventions have examined if combining HIVST with mental health promotion, or with mental health promotion […]
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.
Exercise-based telerehabilitation in chronic low back pain - a scoping review
CONCLUSIONS: This scoping review confirms the heterogeneity within this research area but also contributes by mapping and demonstrating some knowledge gaps in the literature. Further research focusing on synchronous and group interventions are needed. The new technologies described in the included studies provide added value through functional improvements and task redesign.
Bridging the Gap: How Accounting for Social Determinants of Health Can Improve Digital Health Equity in Cardiovascular Medicine
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: In this review, we discuss the importance of digital health equity and how social determinants of health (and intersectionality with race, ethnicity, and gender) affect cardiovascular health-related outcomes in digital health trials. We propose strategies to improve digital health equity as we move to a digitally-connected world for healthcare applications and beyond.
Health Care Utilization With Telemedicine and In-Person Visits in Pediatric Primary Care
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: In this cohort study, telephone and video visits for pediatric primary care were associated with less prescribing and ordering than in-person visits. Telemedicine visits were associated with modestly higher rates of subsequent in-person visits and slightly higher rates of ED visits, and there was no difference in hospitalizations. Telemedicine appears to be […]

The focus extends to shaping compassionate care strategies for addressing mental health challenges associated with post-intensive care syndrome, […]
Please mind the gap between guidelines & behavior change: A systematic review and a consideration on effectiveness in healthcare
CONCLUSIONS: The study highlights the varied effectiveness of guidelines, with prescription behavior being the most investigated. Guidelines influenced behavior positively in less than half of the cases, and doctors were the primary focus, rather than nurses. The complexity of interventions suggests a need for further research to develop more effective behavioral interventions and to standardize […]
