Evidence-based physician-pharmacist collaborative clinics have demonstrated significant short-term benefits for patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), but their long-term effectiveness remains unclear, especially in primary health care settings.

Adult-type gliomas are among the most prevalent and lethal primary central nervous system tumors, where prompt and accurate diagnosis is essential for maximizing survival prospects. Molecular classification, particularly the detection of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutations and 1p/19q codeletions, has become crucial for accurate diagnosis and prognosis. Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a promising adjunct in enhancing diagnostic accuracy using histopathological images. Existing reviews mostly focused on radiology rather than histopathology, and no comprehensive systematic review has specifically evaluated AI performance exclusively from histopathological images for detecting these two molecular markers.

Online peer support can help people living with long-term physical health conditions to manage their mental well-being. Although the potential negative events that can occur and risks associated with web-based peer communities are well recognized, our understanding of how best to moderate these spaces is relatively limited, particularly with regard to new communities. Previous work has focused on the experiences of either moderators or community members.

The global nursing shortage, exacerbated by heavy workloads and high turnover rates associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, continues to undermine care quality and nurse well-being. Although digital health technologies have enhanced coordination, improved communication, and reduced clinical errors in nursing practice, they have also increased nurses’ documentation burden. Advances in large language models (LLMs) and other generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools facilitate the generation of accurate reports from electronic medical records (EMRs), thereby streamlining documentation workflows, saving time, and reducing nurses’ workloads. Accordingly, integrating LLMs into electronic nursing documentation systems warrants further exploration.

Parkinson disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder with increasing global prevalence, necessitating innovative management. Digital health interventions (DHIs) offer potential advantages for PD care; yet, a comprehensive systematic review and synthesis across all DHI types and core outcomes is still lacking.

As more individuals live longer with complex conditions, the need for effective palliative care (PC) grows. It has been stated that access to PC should be integrated early and delivered in a timely manner to patients with life-threatening illnesses. Health and welfare technologies (HWTs) offer tools to enhance care delivery, particularly in home and rural settings. Although there is a profound lack of evidence regarding the impact when used in PC, it is necessary to critically assess the current state of knowledge regarding impacts and consequences of technologies, ensuring that their integration considers broader implications for patients, caregivers, and health care systems in PC.

Hip fractures in older adults increasingly challenge public health, making traditional rehabilitation very challenging. Digital health interventions (DHIs) have emerged as a promising solution for postoperative rehabilitation. However, evidence on DHIs’ effects on functional and psychological outcomes remains insufficient.

Short-video platforms, characterized by algorithmic curation and passive consumption, have emerged as dominant components of digital life. However, the associations between short-video platform use and health across different groups and usage behaviors remain understudied.

Interorganizational knowledge sharing is vital for scaling digital transformation efforts that span multiple organizations and system-wide change. However, existing frameworks provide limited insights into the cross-level dynamics that shape how learning ecosystems emerge, evolve, and operate across multiple organizations. This gap leaves practitioners without clear guidance on how multilevel contextual conditions and mechanisms interact to influence the development and sustainability of formal and informal knowledge-sharing relationships.

Digital health innovations are frequently used to support people in managing chronic health conditions. Stroke is common, and people who have survived a stroke and live in the community must learn to manage their health independently. Digital tools can help, but only if designed to match survivors’ specific needs. In response to a need expressed by people living with chronic health conditions, the Australian government created a funding stream to support the development of a digital resource to help individuals gain confidence in managing their health.

Aspiration pneumonia is a leading cause of death in Parkinson disease (PD). Expiratory muscle strength training (EMST) is a promising intervention for respiratory and swallowing dysfunction. However, long-term EMST adherence is frequently poor in PD.
