Objectives To compare breadth of condition coverage, accuracy suggested conditions and appropriateness urgency advice eight popular symptom assessment apps. Design Vignettes study. Setting 200 primary care vignettes. Intervention/comparator For apps seven general practitioners (GPs): coverage condition-suggestion measured against the vignettes’ gold-standard. Primary outcome measures (1) Proportion ‘covered’ by an app, that is, not excluded because user was too young/old or pregnant,...
Background Unprecedented lockdown measures have been introduced in countries worldwide to mitigate the spread and consequences of COVID-19. Although attention has focused on effects these epidemiological indicators relating directly infection, there is increased recognition their broader health implications. However, assessing implications real time a challenge, due limitations existing syndromic surveillance data tools. Objective The aim this study explore added value mobile phone app–based...
Skilled birth attendance, institutional deliveries, and provision of quality, respectful care are key practices to improve maternal neonatal health outcomes. In Mozambique, the government has prioritized improved service delivery demand for these practices, alongside "humanization process." An intervention implemented in Nampula province beginning 2009 saw marked improvement rates. This study uses a sequential explanatory mixed methods case design explore contextual factors that may have...
Abstract Objectives To compare breadth of condition coverage, accuracy suggested conditions and appropriateness urgency advice 8 popular symptom assessment apps with each other 7 General Practitioners. Design Clinical vignettes study. Setting 200 clinical representing real-world scenarios in primary care. Intervention/comparator Condition accuracy, performance was measured against the vignettes’ gold-standard diagnoses triage level. Primary outcome measures Outcomes included (i) proportion...

Background The UNAIDS Modes of Transmission (UNAIDSMoT) model is increasingly being used to inform national-level HIV priority setting. Although the simple use, important factors may be omitted. Using UNAIDSMoT model, with Uganda and Cambodia as case studies, we explored influence incorporation additional factors. Methods A detailed review was conducted, including reviewing structure, data requirements, parameters assumptions. Country-specific literature reviews were undertaken, along field...
Abstract Background Unprecedented lockdown measures have been introduced in countries across the world to mitigate spread and consequences of COVID-19. While attention has focused on effects these epidemiological indicators relating directly infection, there is increased recognition their broader health implications. However, assessing implications real time a challenge, due limitations existing syndromic surveillance data tools. Objective To explore added value mobile phone app-based...

<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> Mental health conditions pose a significant challenge for healthcare systems globally, and digital solutions have been proposed to address the challenges of limited access healthcare, stigmatization, lack reliable data. An understanding potential risk factors, comorbidities, symptom constellations forms necessary foundation future with diagnostic capabilities. Currently used products such as checkers generate novel data sets that could provide insight into...
<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> Early efforts to control the COVID-19 pandemic have been focused on Non-Pharmaceutical Interventions (NPIs) in absence of effective treatments or sufficient vaccine supply. While retrospective analyses and modeling studies confirmed that severe restrictions social contacts, i.e., lockdowns, are most reducing transmission SARS-CoV-2, they incur large economic costs mental health risks. Earlier detection cases has also proposed as an method control, but so far...
