The vast majority of research, however, on static magnet therapy for insomnia has been confined to the auricular type of therapy, with publications limited to Chinese journals.

In this study, the authors report the positive preliminary results of insomnia treatment using pillows with embedded magnets, magnetic insoles and TriPhase bracelets. The analysis is based on objective actigraphic and polysomnographic data. A theory of accelerated transition from wakefulness to sleep is proposed to explain the process of insomnia relief through low-strength static magnetic fields.

Greater collaboration, however, presents new communication challenges. Given the diverse and varied organisational structures involved, there exists the need for a common and neutral work area, in effect creating a Temporary Virtual Organisation (TVO), which respects the needs and restrictions of widely varied organisational structures without becoming dominated by any one entity. The key in the creation of a TVO is that a unique process of institutional review is required. Also, because information is drawn from a number of disparate and often incompatible information sources, a standardised communication and information flow is needed well before data is collected, transmitted and utilised by members. Review of an innovative cancer research TVO initiative demonstrates that Common Data Elements (CDEs) and enhanced metadata are key to such a process and are described here, along with critical planning lessons learned from a model genetic biomarker research consortium.</p>","PeriodicalId":39775,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Electronic Healthcare","volume":"4 3-4","pages":"257-66"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1504/IJEH.2008.022664","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"27949331","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}

However, Web 2.0 requires simplicity of use as well as integration with modern web technologies. This article presents a Web 2.0 telemedical portal, which provides a social community-learning paradigm from the desk of the physician, the student, the hospital administrator, or the insurer. The presented portal utilises RESTful web services and techniques like content syndication, mushups and Asynchronous JavaScript API and XML (AJAX). The designed portal is based on the Apache Cocoon RESTful framework for sharing Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) medical case studies. Central to this article is the integration between Cocoon and AJAX.
