Rehabilitation exercises are often monotonous and quickly become boring, therefore serious games try to include gaming aspects into the rehabilitation process, which was previously shown can support the overall process. To support wrist and hand rehabilitation, the authors propose a new and innovative serious game, which relies only on the Leap Motion Controller together with a PC combining cognitive and physical rehabilitation. The development was based on a user-centred design approach divided into 3 consecutive phases focusing on the therapeutical point of view. In Phase 1, requirements for such a solution were identified and validated in cooperation with one therapist. Phases 2 and 3 pose additional changes gathered from interviews together with four more therapists and one stroke patient to develop a highly sophisticated and flexible prototype. Different and easily adaptable levels were developed in which the patient needs to perform specific movements with one or two hands and wrists to control the avatar throughout a jump-and-run game. Additionally, it includes memory aspects for additional and combined cognitive training. In the end, overall 44 requirements were identified and the gathered feedback during the iterations showed a positive acceptance and massive potential of the proposed solution. These requirements should also pose a good starting point for the development and research of new serious games in that domain as well.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100268,"journal":{"name":"Clinical eHealth","volume":"6 ","pages":"Pages 85-95"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49711815","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper discusses two automated techniques, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), which make use of deep learning techniques for skin cancer detection. Through evaluation of research on skin cancer detection using ANN and CNN, the effectiveness and performance of these techniques in early and efficient diagnosis of skin cancer were established. The study found that ANN and CNN were successful in early detection of skin cancer using different data sets and hybrid models, demonstrating the potential for these technologies to improve accuracy in skin cancer detection. The paper highlights the novelty of using deep learning techniques for skin cancer detection and emphasises the critical need for an automated system for skin lesion recognition to reduce effort and time in the diagnosis process. The possible applications of this study include the development of more efficient and accurate skin cancer detection systems that can lead to earlier diagnosis and improved treatment outcomes. Overall, this research underscores the importance of using advanced technologies, such as ANN and CNN, in the fight against skin cancer and highlights the potential impact of these techniques in improving patient outcomes.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100268,"journal":{"name":"Clinical eHealth","volume":"6 ","pages":"Pages 76-84"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49711743","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Deposit contracts (a financial incentive in which the participant deposits own money) are inexpensive and effective, but acceptability among CVD patients is unclear. This study investigated the acceptability of a deposit contract intervention for physical activity among CVD patients.</p></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><p>We approached CVD patients through the Harteraad patient panel of the Dutch CVD patient organization and asked them to fill in an online survey.

The survey assessed acceptability of deposit contracts, responses to a concrete example of a deposit contract for physical activity behavior change, and suitable moments for implementation.</p></div><div><h3>Results</h3><p>Overall, half of the participants (45.6%) confirmed needing extra commitment to maintain lifestyle change. Yet, a small part of the sample was convinced by the idea that losing money could be motivating (18.8%) and indicated that they would be willing to deposit money themselves (13.2%). Responding to a concrete example of a deposit contract for physical activity, a quarter of the sample (26.2%) reported there was a chance they would participate. Furthermore, 27.1% of the participants found the deposit contract effective and 27.4% found it acceptable. Exploratory analyses showed that a subgroup of younger and lower educated participants responded more favorably.

As a result, the routine activities of all government, semi-government establishments, including educational institutions, are severely affected, and the country's economic growth becomes slowed down. To overcome such a situation, the relevant authorities have introduced the “Work from Home” policy for the employees and “Remote Education” for students. However, due to the persistence of multi-dimensional socio-economic problems, many employees and students face big challenges in performing their regular jobs while adopting such a policy. Consequently, enormous psychological anxiety has been developed for all people, including students, parents, employees, etc., and concurrently created severe changes in their behavior. This study aims to analyze the reasons for the behavioral changes of the employees, students, academic staff, and family members of different ages due to psychological anxiety, stress, or physical issues. A comprehensive online-based survey has been carried out on people working in various sectors in Bangladesh. A modified Apriori Algorithm has been used to sort out the associations between the causes and types of behavioral changes. Analyzed data revealed a massive human behavioral change in most participants. This finding indicates that the negligence of those significant human behavioral changes may cause a higher risk of creating psychological imbalance. Therefore, there is a need to have a solid understanding of the reasons for the behavioral changes and set up standard guidelines to maintain “Work from Home” in this Covid-19 situation to avoid psychological imbalance. Based on this study, some suggestions have been given for implementation by the government on an urgent basis.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100268,"journal":{"name":"Clinical eHealth","volume":"6 ","pages":"Pages 42-52"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49711849","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
