Challenges and Opportunities for Data Sharing Related to Artificial Intelligence Tools in Health Care in Low- and Middle-Income Countries: Systematic Review and Case Study From Thailand.

Background: Health care systems in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) can greatly benefit from artificial intelligence (AI) interventions in various use cases such as diagnostics, treatment, and public health monitoring but face significant challenges in sharing data for developing and deploying AI in health care.

Objective: This study aimed to identify barriers and enablers to data sharing for AI in health care in LMICs and to test the relevance of these in a local context.

Methods: First, we conducted a systematic literature search using PubMed, SCOPUS, Embase, Web of Science, and ACM using controlled vocabulary.

Redesigning telemedicine: preliminary findings from an innovative assisted telemedicine healthcare model.

Despite proven benefits and policy reforms, the use of telemedicine remains low due to several patient, technology, and system-level barriers. Assisted telemedicine employs trained health professionals to connect patients with physicians, which can improve access and scope of telemedicine.

Assessing the Policy Landscape for Salt Reduction in South-East Asian and Latin American Countries - An Initiative Towards Developing an Easily Accessible, Integrated, Searchable Online Repository.

Background: High dietary salt intake is an avoidable cause of hypertension and associated cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Thus, salt reduction is recommended as one of the most cost-effective interventions for CVD prevention and for achieving the World Health Organization's (WHO) 25% reduction in premature non-communicable disease (NCD) mortality by 2025. However, current and comprehensive information about national salt reduction policies and related actions across different regions are difficult to access and impede progress and monitoring.
