Article Abstract
Digital innovation in interventions to promote recovery for intensive care unit (ICU) patients and their family members holds promise for enhancing accessibility and improving physical, psychological, and cognitive outcomes. This scoping review provides a comprehensive overview of digital health interventions designed to support the recovery of ICU patients and their family members described in peer-reviewed publications. We searched 6 databases (inception to September 2023); 2 reviewers independently screened citations against predefined eligibility criteria and extracted data. We screened 3485 records and identified 18 original studies and 8 study protocols with a range of study designs published between 2016 and 2023. Most (n=15) completed studies recruited patients only. Digital interventions were delivered through applications, virtual reality, videoconferencing, and smartwatches. In the completed studies, outcomes are described as feasibility, intervention efficacy, or both. Digital interventions supplemented with professional support and personalized feedback were more feasible than self-directed interventions. Further research is essential to ascertain the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of digital interventions in improving outcomes for ICU survivors and their family members.

Patterns of extreme outlier gene expression suggest an edge of chaos effect in transcriptomic networks.

Background: Most RNA-seq datasets harbor genes with extreme expression levels in some samples. Such extreme outliers are usually treated as technical errors and are removed from the data before further statistical analysis. Here we focus on the patterns of such outlier gene expression to investigate whether they provide insights into the underlying biology.

With the persistence of difficult employment, a large number of college students feel anxious and nervous about job hunting. College students with different family economic status have various feelings and performances when faced with employment, possibly due to subjective social class differences. The present study investigated the employment confidence of 611 undergraduates in Chongqing, aimed to ascertain the overall employment confidence of Chinese college students, and tried to analyze how subjective social class works on the employment confidence of college students and its influencing mechanism.

Background: Interventions aimed to increase healthcare provider empathy and capacity to deliver person-centered care have been shown to improve healthcare seeking and outcomes. In the context of self-injectable contraception, empathetic counseling and coaching may be promising approaches for addressing "fear of the needle" among clients interested in using subcutaneous depot medroxyprogesterone (DMPA-SC). In Nigeria, the Delivering Innovation in Self-Care (DISC) project developed and evaluated an empathy-based in-service training and supportive supervision intervention for public sector family (FP) planning providers implemented in conjunction with community-based mobilization.

Background: Rare genetic variation provided by whole genome sequence datasets has been relatively less explored for its contributions to human traits. Meta-analysis of sequencing data offers advantages by integrating larger sample sizes from diverse cohorts, thereby increasing the likelihood of discovering novel insights into complex traits. Furthermore, emerging methods in genome-wide rare variant association testing further improve power and interpretability.

Background: Anxiety symptoms during pregnancy are a frequent mental health issue for expectant mothers and fathers. Research revealed that prenatal anxiety symptoms can impact parent-child bonding and child development. This study aims to investigate the prospective relationship between prenatal anxiety symptoms and general child development and whether it is mediated by parent-child bonding.
