Article Abstract
Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic posed challenges for health systems in rapidly diagnosing diseases.
Methods: Community workshops and a self-administered questionnaire were implemented to determine the feasibility of self-testing for future epidemics and gain an understanding of community interest and the capacity to implement self-tests in two rural areas in Paraguay.
Results: Comprehension of the self-test procedures and their application was demonstrated by 99% of the participants. The participants expressed interest in accessing these tests at home.
Conclusions: Self-tests could be a valuable tool in urban and rural communities that enable health systems to focus on severe cases.

Toward Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence for Users' Digital Well-Being: Systematic Review, Synthesis, and Future Directions.
JMIR Hum Factors
September 2025
Seidenberg School of Computer Science and Information Systems, Pace University, New York City, NY, United States.
Background: As information and communication technologies and artificial intelligence (AI) become deeply integrated into daily life, the focus on users' digital well-being has grown across academic and industrial fields. However, fragmented perspectives and approaches to digital well-being in AI-powered systems hinder a holistic understanding, leaving researchers and practitioners struggling to design truly human-centered AI systems.
Objective: This paper aims to address the fragmentation by synthesizing diverse perspectives and approaches to digital well-being through a systematic literature review.
Diverse Attitudes and Experiences With Technology Use During the COVID-19 Pandemic Among Asian American and Pacific Islander Adults (the COMPASS Study): Survey Study.
JMIR Hum Factors

Department of Community Health Systems, University of California, San Francisco, School of Nursing, San Francisco, CA, United States.
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic forced the world to quarantine to slow the rate of transmission, causing communities to transition into virtual spaces. Asian American and Pacific Islander communities faced the additional challenge of discrimination that stemmed from racist and xenophobic rhetoric in the media. Limited data exist on technology use among Asian American and Pacific Islander adults during the height of the COVID-19 shelter-in-place period and its effect on their physical and mental health.

JAMA
September 2025
Division of Surgery and Interventional Science, UCL, London, United Kingdom.
Importance: Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), with or without prostate biopsy, has become the standard of care for diagnosing clinically significant prostate cancer. Resource capacity limits widespread adoption. Biparametric MRI, which omits the gadolinium contrast sequence, is a shorter and cheaper alternative offering time-saving capacity gains for health systems globally.

When treatments are deemed not to be cost-effective and face non-reimbursement, policymakers in publicly funded healthcare systems may decide to ration treatments by withholding it from future patients. However, they must also address a critical question: should they also ration treatments by withdrawing it from patients already having access to the treatment, or is there an ethical difference between withdrawing and withholding treatments? To explore this question, we conducted a behavioural experiment (n=1404), examining public support for withdrawing and withholding treatments in reimbursement decisions across eleven different circumstances. Overall, public support for rationing by withdrawing and withholding was low, with no general perceived difference between withdrawing and withholding treatments.
