In statistics, several tools are used to interpret the data. Measures of central tendency represent the characteristics of the data, such as mean, median, and mode. Additionally, measures of variance like standard deviation and range are used to find the spread of data from the mean. Relative standing measures the distance between data locations. Commonly used measures of relative standings are percentile, z score, and quartiles.
Percentiles are a type of fractile that partition data into...

Data are individual items of information obtained from a population or sample. Data may be classified as qualitative (categorical), quantitative continuous, or quantitative discrete. Because it is not practical to measure the entire population in a study, researchers use samples to represent the population. A random sample is a representative group from the population chosen by using a method that gives each individual in the population an equal chance of being included in the sample. Random...

Inhaled Medications01:23

Inhaled Medications

829
Inhaled medications are crucial for managing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma. They are essential for effective treatment and control, ensuring optimal respiratory health and well-being. Inhaled medication delivers drugs directly to the lungs, providing a rapid onset of action and reducing systemic side effects compared to oral or injectable medications. Three primary types of inhalation devices are used to administer these medications: nebulizers, metered-dose inhalers...

Stereotype Content Model02:16

Stereotype Content Model

15.5K
The Stereotype Content Model (SCM) was first proposed by Susan Fiske and her colleagues (Fiske, Cuddy, Glick & Xu, 2002; see also Fiske, 2012 and Fiske, 2017). The SCM specifies that when someone encounters a new group, they will stereotype them based on two metrics: warmth—or that group’s perceived intent, and how likely they are to provide help or inflict harm—and competence—or their ability to carry out that objective. Depending on the warmth-competence...

Measurement of Air Content in Concrete

679
Air content measurement in concrete is critical for ensuring structural integrity and durability of concrete structures, especially in environments prone to severe weather conditions. Accurate air content analysis optimizes concrete's resistance to freeze-thaw cycles and enhances its workability and strength. Several methods are standardized under ASTM guidelines to measure the air content in fresh concrete, each suitable for different concrete types and conditions.
The pressure method,...

Infective endocarditis management involves a multifaceted approach encompassing infection prevention, lifestyle modifications, pharmacological therapy, and surgical management.Infection Prevention:Hand Hygiene: Thorough handwashing is crucial to prevent the spread of infection. Hand hygiene should be performed regularly, especially before and after using the restroom.Oral Hygiene: Good oral hygiene is essential. It includes brushing teeth immediately after waking up and before bed, flossing...

Area of Science:

  • Digital health and mobile applications in medicine.
  • Behavioral science and health interventions.
  • Pharmaceutical adherence and patient outcomes.

Background:

  • Medication adherence is a significant challenge, with only 50% of patients adhering to chronic disease medications.
  • Digital health offers innovative smartphone solutions for medication adherence.
  • A comprehensive review of existing adherence apps is lacking.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review medication adherence apps for evidence base, healthcare professional (HCP) involvement, and behavior change strategies.
  • To classify existing medication adherence apps.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic search of Apple App Store and Google Play Store for medication adherence apps in April 2015.
  • Data extraction on app source, price, HCP involvement, and evidence base.
  • Analysis of adherence strategies (reminder, behavioral, educational) in free apps.

Main Results:

  • 805 apps met inclusion criteria from 5881 identified.
  • Only 42 apps (free and paid combined) reported HCP involvement and an evidence base.
  • Reminder, behavioral, and educational strategies were employed, with most apps using only one.

Conclusions:

  • A significant gap exists in HCP involvement and evidence base for medication adherence apps.
  • Increased collaboration is needed to develop high-quality, evidence-based adherence apps.
  • Robust clinical trials are essential to validate the effectiveness of these digital health interventions.
