Patient Portal Registrations at a Swiss Tertiary Referral Hospital Over the Course of the COVID-19 Pandemic: Retrospective Data Analysis

Patient Portal Registrations at a Swiss Tertiary Referral Hospital Over the Course of the COVID-19 Pandemic: Retrospective Data Analysis

For further subgroup analyses, the 7-day mean of registrations was stratified by age and gender. Age was divided into two categories: patients being younger than 65 years of age or aged 65 years and older. The latter group is particularly important because adults older than 65 years of age were defined as high-risk groups for severe COVID-19 disease progression [17,18]. The analysis was again performed by comparison of graphs, but also differences in registration rate between the time periods.

Differential Analysis of Age, Gender, Race, Sentiment, and Emotion in Substance Use Discourse on Twitter During the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Natural Language Processing Approach

Differential Analysis of Age, Gender, Race, Sentiment, and Emotion in Substance Use Discourse on Twitter During the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Natural Language Processing Approach

Both surveys provide detailed reports on the use of illicit and nonillicit drugs, disaggregated by age, gender, race, and ethnicity at a national level. In addition to these national surveys, various individual studies [16,24] have also explored SU disparities across demographics such as age, gender, race, and ethnicity. While these surveys offer valuable insights, their scope is often limited by the diversity of true populations and the duration of the studied period.

Daily Automated Prediction of Delirium Risk in Hospitalized Patients: Model Development and Validation

Daily Automated Prediction of Delirium Risk in Hospitalized Patients: Model Development and Validation

As model inputs, we used the patient’s age, gender, and all prior recorded vital signs, laboratory values, medications, and prior CAM assessments present in the medical record at 5 AM before the 24 hours in which delirium was to be predicted. Categorical values were converted to integers (eg, “1” for “Positive,” “0” for “Negative”).

Relative Preference for In-Person, Telehealth, Digital, and Pharmacologic Mental Health Care After the COVID-19 Pandemic: Cross-Sectional Questionnaire Study

Care preferences were also examined relative to potential predictors of care use: gender, race, age, (self and public) stigma, discrimination, and level of shame.

Understanding Individual Differences in Happiness Sources and Implications for Health Technology Design: Exploratory Analysis of an Open Dataset

Understanding Individual Differences in Happiness Sources and Implications for Health Technology Design: Exploratory Analysis of an Open Dataset

Age brackets also differed in how they expressed happiness [13]. Other research studies have also shown differences between demographic groups in the factors associated with happiness levels [14,15]. As noted earlier, sex influences the sources of happiness. Age, marital status, and parenthood status also influence the sources of happiness. The effects of age and marital status would also appear to interact with sex to influence the importance of individual sources of happiness [14].

A Digital Tool for Clinical Evidence–Driven Guideline Development by Studying Properties of Trial Eligible and Ineligible Populations: Development and Usability Study

A Digital Tool for Clinical Evidence–Driven Guideline Development by Studying Properties of Trial Eligible and Ineligible Populations: Development and Usability Study

Extracting comorbidities for an index condition based on age, gender, and other features required intensive computation power and storage capacity when dynamic linking the patient and clinical tables. The same challenge was seen for other data analyses.

Use of mHealth Technology for Improving Exercise Adherence in Patients With Heart Failure: Systematic Review

Use of mHealth Technology for Improving Exercise Adherence in Patients With Heart Failure: Systematic Review

HF is generally associated with advancing age and has the highest readmission rates among all chronic diseases, adding to the increase in health care costs [2,12]. As such, effective and efficient management of HF using both pharmacological and nonpharmacological methods is essential. As a nonpharmacological method, exercise training interventions have been shown to decrease hospitalizations, increase exercise capacity, and improve quality of life [13].

Citizen Worry and Adherence in Response to Government Restrictions in Switzerland During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Repeated Cross-Sectional Online Surveys

Citizen Worry and Adherence in Response to Government Restrictions in Switzerland During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Repeated Cross-Sectional Online Surveys

In our previously published cross-sectional population survey, performed during the first wave of the pandemic, we found high self-reported adherence to official restrictions, which increased with age and level of worry [20]. As in the aforementioned studies, worry was high, particularly among people in isolation and with lower health literacy. Nearly half of the respondents felt that government responses were adequate or, associated with higher levels of worry, even insufficient.

Trends in Exercise-Related Internet Search Keywords by Sex, Age, and Lifestyle: Infodemiological Study

For male individuals, the search percentages across different age groups were highest for “Pilates,” “yoga,” “muscle training,” “exercise bike,” “walking,” “running,” and “hiking” in the 40-49 years age group. “Stretch” showed the highest search percentage in the 50-59 years group, whereas “tai chi” and “radio calisthenics” were the highest in the 70-79 years group.

Identification of Motivational Determinants for Telemedicine Use Among Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis in Germany: Secondary Analysis of Data From a Nationwide Cross-Sectional Survey Study

Identification of Motivational Determinants for Telemedicine Use Among Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis in Germany: Secondary Analysis of Data From a Nationwide Cross-Sectional Survey Study

RA is the most common rheumatic disease with a global age-standardized point prevalence and annual incidence rates of 246.6 and 14.9 per 100,000 population in 2017 [2]. RA is associated with high medical costs [3] and contributes to a significant deterioration in quality of life [4]. Patients in rural areas usually have limited access to rheumatology care and therefore, accept longer diagnosis times [5].
