Cellulitis is the most common cause of skin-related hospitalisations, and the mortality of patients with sepsis remains high. Some stratification models have been developed, but their performance in e...
This is a retrospective cohort study....
This study included both the development and the external-validation phases from two independent large cohorts internationally....
A total of 6695 patients with cellulitis in the Medical Information Mart for Intensive care (MIMIC)-IV database were used to develop models with different machine-learning algorithms. The best models ...
The primary outcome of interest in this study was the development based on the Sepsis-3.0 criteria during hospitalisation....
Patient characteristics were significantly different between the two groups. In internal validation, XGBoost was the best model, with an AUC of 0.780, and AdaBoost was the worst model, with an AUC of ...
Boosting and neural network models performed slightly better than the LR model and were more robust in complex clinical situations. The results could provide a tool for clinicians to detect hospitalis...
This study presents a comprehensive exploration of lexical and grammatical development in Palestinian Arabic (PA). The study aims to test the validity of the Palestinian Arabic Communicative Developme...
Data were collected from 1,399 parents of PA children aged 18-36 months using an online PA-CDI....
The results show that as age increased, so did lexical and morphosyntactic production, along with considerable variability across individuals. While lexical development in PA resembles the order obser...
Our findings indicate the potential of the PA-CDI as an assessment tool for lexical and morphosyntactic development among PA-speaking children in Israel. Our developmental growth curves may also be us...

Cancer continues to pose a considerable challenge to global health. In the search for innovative strategies to combat this complex enemy, the concept of universal cancer screening has emerged as a pro...
This paper aims to provide a better understanding of the different engagement, cost, and resource considerations in developing and implementing mHealth solutions in the Philippines during the COVID-19...
First, six participants completed a form to document the estimated costs of developing a pseudo mobile application with features to mitigate the pandemic. Second, ten key informant interviews determin...
The average cost estimate to develop and roll out a mobile application with public health and epidemiology features is Php 4,018,907 (US $78,650). The analysis of the interviews resulted in 12 themes ...
While differences in the cost estimates are evident, it provides a ballpark figure and the different factors that implementers need to sustain and maintain an mHealth solution. This paper hopes to inf...
This study delves into the intricate relationship between financial development and environmental sustainability by considering the role of the Paris Agreement in the context of developing countries. ...
In pregnancy, eating well, keeping active, and avoiding excessive weight gain are associated with better maternal and fetal health outcomes. Dietary and physical activity (PA) interventions can be eff...
The aim of this study was to create a theory-based intervention within Baby Buddy to empower, encourage, and support expectant parents to develop healthier dietary and PA habits for pregnancy and pare...
The intervention's development process was guided by the Behavior Change Wheel, with the person-based approach used to create and test its design. Three stages of qualitative research with pregnant an...
Study 1 confirmed the appeal and relevance of the intervention concept and its novel approach of including partners. The identified themes underpinned the development of the intervention design. Itera...
This study illustrates the value of combining a theoretical method for intervention development with the person-based approach to create a theory-based intervention that is also user-friendly, appeali...
The article explores connectivity from the prism of multilateral development banks. It recognises that theorising on connectivity is increasing, but as connectivity agency is less addressed, it aims t...
The COVID-19 pandemic caused profound impacts on the global economy, resulting in a sharp drop in carbon emissions as energy demand fell. The emissions reduction due to past extreme events often follo...
Research methodology for assessing the pandemic's impacts on the G7 and E7 countries' long-term carbon trajectory curve....
The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s10098-023-02508-0....
Conversational agents (CAs), also known as chatbots, are computer programs that simulate human conversations by using predetermined rule-based responses or artificial intelligence algorithms. They are...
The aim of this study was to develop a conceptual framework for the design, evaluation, and implementation of smartphone-delivered, rule-based, goal-oriented, and text-based CAs for health care....
We followed the approach by Jabareen, which was based on the grounded theory method, to develop this conceptual framework. We performed 2 literature reviews focusing on health care CAs and conceptual ...
The Designing, Developing, Evaluating, and Implementing a Smartphone-Delivered, Rule-Based Conversational Agent (DISCOVER) conceptual framework includes 8 iterative steps grouped into 3 stages, as fol...
Drawing on published evidence, the DISCOVER conceptual framework provides a step-by-step guide for developing rule-based, smartphone-delivered CAs. Further evaluation of this framework in diverse heal...
Increasing career and life development hope (CLDH) is critical for the career and life pursuits of non-engaged youths (NEY) who face various disadvantages in the school-to-work transition, especially ...
