Multi-day GPS data is increasingly being used in research-including in the field of spatial epidemiology. We present several maps as ways to present multi-day GPS data. Data come from the NYC Low-Income Housing, Neighborhoods and Health Study (=120). Participants wore a QStarz BT-Q1000XT GPS device for about a week (mean: 7.44, SD= 2.15). Our maps show various ways to visualize multi-day GPS data; these data are presented by overall GPS data, by weekday/weekend and by day of the week. We discuss implications for each of the maps.

Introduction: In various countries, an increasing proportion of general practitioner (GP) referrals is returned by hospitals. We aimed to uncover the causes and consequences of referral returns from the perspective of GP liaisons.
Methods: Individual interviews with 20 GP liaison officers from various departments in Southern Denmark, serving 1.

Introduction: Organisational problems still prevent widespread implementation of clinical medication reviews. The Opti-Med2 method was developed to facilitate the process of performing clinical medication reviews. The method includes patient involvement by means of a questionnaire and expert teams of community pharmacists and general practitioners (GPs) to perform pharmacotherapeutic analyses, providing the patients' own GP with pharmacotherapeutic advice.

Background: The aim of this study was to assess acceptance, feasibility and further need of development of the intervention for improving patient capacity for older people with multimorbidity.
Methods: A convergent mixed-methods non-randomised pilot study in one intervention (IU) and one control primary care unit (CU) in Region Stockholm, Sweden. General practitioners (GPs) in both units recruited individuals fulfilling eligibility criteria: ≥ 65 years of age, ≥ 2 chronic diseases, and an increased care need.

Background: Acute respiratory infections (ARIs) are frequent reasons for medical consultations in general practice and can lead to unnecessary recontacts. Introducing new point-of-care (POC) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) diagnostic equipment may offer an attractive and efficient way of providing a more precise and exact microbial diagnosis. Successful uptake of POC PCR equipment could potentially lead to a reduction in recontacts with benefits for both staff and patients.

Purpose: Develop a musculoskeletal-environment interaction model to reconstruct the dynamic-interaction process in skiing.
Methods: This study established a skier-ski-snow interaction (SSSI) model that integrated a 3D full-body musculoskeletal model, a flexible ski model, a ski boot model, a ski-snow contact model, and an air resistance model. An experimental method was developed to collect kinematic and kinetic data using IMUs, GPS, and plantar pressure measurement insoles, which were cost-effective and capable of capturing motion in large-scale field conditions.
