A national platform for advancing self-care processes for the most common illnesses and conditions: designing, evaluating, and implementing.

Effective self-care practices are crucial for maintaining health and well-being, as inadequate self-care can lead to increased health risks and decreased overall quality of life. To address these issues, one promising approach involves leveraging progressive web app (PWA) platforms to educate and empower individuals with necessary self-care services. This study aims to design, implement, and evaluate a national self-care PWA platform, aiming to enhance accessibility and effectiveness in promoting health and self-care practices. The platform designed to improve self-care processes can be utilized by mothers, children, adolescents, youth, adults, and patients with emotional and mental disorders. This study was conducted in three phases. In the first phase, during 35 meetings with 19 health care providers including physicians and another group of professionals, the most common illnesses and conditions that require self-care were identified. Platform capabilities were then assessed based on stakeholder opinions. Subsequently, during 15 meetings 19 health care providers identified a comprehensive list of conditions benefiting from dedicated decision aids to enhance individuals' self-care processes. In the second phase, a progressive web app platform was designed based on these common illnesses and conditions and capabilities and subsequently evaluated. To usability evaluation the platform, 26 evaluators utilized the system for two weeks. The QUIS 5.5 questionnaire was employed for evaluation, and the results were analyzed using SPSS 23. In the final phase, the system was implemented at the Smart University of Medical Sciences (SMUMS), affiliated with the Ministry of Health and Medical Education in Iran. Based on the most common illnesses and conditions (n = 87) and identified capabilities, the national self-care platform was designed with eight sections catering to 'Maternal and child health services,' 'Mothers,' 'Infants,' 'Teenagers,' 'Adults,' 'Elderly,' 'Health of All Age Groups,' 'Patients with Mental and Emotional Health Disorders,' and 'General Information' for user education. Furthermore, the platform features 54 decision aids (DA), teleconsultation services, and a self-care magazine (Access link: https://khodmoragheb.ir/ ). These features were integrated to provide comprehensive support and resources for self-care. A mean exceeding 7 was attained across all evaluated dimensions, indicating that evaluators generally agreed the platform performed well. The designed national self-care platform offers a promising solution for managing healthcare challenges. This innovative approach addresses the specific needs of individuals and extends its reach to Persian-speaking patients worldwide, fostering a global impact. By embracing self-care practices on an international scale, this platform contributes to a more inclusive and accessible healthcare landscape for individuals in Iran, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, and beyond.

‘제주환경보전분담금(관광세)’ 제도 도입과정 분석 : 정책흐름모형(PSM)의 적용

Jeju Special Self-Governing Province has been reviewing the introduction of a tourism system related to a Tourism Tax for the environmental conservation of tourist destinations since 2012. However, the system, now referred to as the ‘Environmental Conservation Contribution,’ was ultimately postponed in May 2024 due to legal issues, political interests, negative public opinion regarding the system’s introduction, and a lack of supporting evidence. This study analyzes the process through the application of Kingdon(1984)’s Policy Streams Model(PSM), noting that discussions surrounding the ‘Jeju Environmental Conservation Contribution’, which faced long-standing challenges, did not follow a rational policy process due to differences in stakeholder opinions and the fluid nature of the system’s details. The anaylsis identified two main factors congributing to the difficulty in introducing the Jeju Environmental Conservation Contribution System. First, the window for policy decision-making did not open because the problem stream, policy alternatives stream, and political stream were not aligned, largely due to the insufficient formation of the political stream. Second, the policy leader who held significant influence in aligning these three streams, were unable to strongly lead the introduction of the system to it’s conclusion. Based on the research results, the practical implications of this study are as follows. First, for the successful implementation of the system, political efforts to persuade the public and shape public opinion are essential. Additionally, effective policy PR strategies are needed to foster social consensus through negotiations with multilateral consultative bodies and to enhance public awareness of the system. Second, it suggests that a logical and reasonable design that can change and persuade public perception is necessary when designing policy alternatives. Third, policy leaders should lead changes in the national atmosphere and public opinion formation based on professional knowledge and resources, and combine the three streams of the policy formation process with innovative strategies. The academic contribution of this study is that it lies in its application of empirical research using policy theory in the field of tourism studies, by clearly identifying the complex factors and problems involved in the introduction of the tourism system. Furthermore, this study enhances the clarity and objectivity of the analysis by refining the factors analyzed in the existing Policy Streams Model.

Assessing Solutions for Resilient Dairy Farming in Europe.

The objective of the EU project Resilience for Dairy (R4D) is to develop and strengthen a self-sustainable Thematic Network on resilient dairy farms in 15 European countries. This article focusses on those solutions (practices and techniques) that are assessed contributing to a resilient dairy farming sector. The opinions of experts, farmers, and stakeholders were collected and scored through surveys and in a series of local workshops. Six key contributing knowledge fields are included: economic and social resilience, technical efficiency, environment, animal welfare and health, and societal perception. Assessing these knowledge fields proved to be a good predictor for measuring resilience. Only the impact fields of animal welfare and health and societal perception overlapped each other in response. This study shows differences in the choice of solutions across Europe. Experts from South and East Europe are more positive about the contribution of solutions to resilience than their colleagues from North and West Europe, except for social life items. Expert and farmer/stakeholder opinions differ regarding several of the solutions. Technical efficiency is a leading strategy. Priority topics of interest are communication with society, renewable energy production, strategic hoof trimming, early detection of diseases, monitoring fertility and health, and calf rearing. Besides resilience, attractiveness and readiness of the solutions were also assessed.

A Sustainable Model for Engineering Project - a Stakeholder’s Perspective

For earning sustainable SMSWM many environmental, economical, social, institutional, and technical challenges have to be met in the SMSWM pathway. In developing countries like Pakistan, MSWM is a gigantic task because of mismanagement, lack of proper funds, loss of cover and recovery options, bad serial and disposal, lack of information, and an ineffective delivery system. The project is therefore geared at enhancing such a model concerning 5 tenets in the sustainability of the environment that is technical, institutional, monetary, Environmental, and social. By implication, a solid waste management system that will favor a sustainable environment relating to the above factors will be determined from reading literature doing discipline visits, and engaging in stakeholder surveys. Based on five sprint factors of sustainability, the complete work has been done and all the components have been connected and have a certain ratio. When major factors and their sub-factors are identified, specific surveys are conducted for prioritization scoring of such elements, mainly based on the importance of each issue and closer to the inputs of different stakeholders considered. A conceptual model has been developed and refined into a final format for all municipal strong waste control projects to test the model’s sustainability. The rating/weights assigned to each element are purely and utterly to the opinion of the various stakeholders from a given field.

Business analytics in managerial decision-making: top management perceptions

Purpose Firms seek to improve their decision-making and enable more “fact-based” decisions by using business analytics. While the benefits of using business analytics to monitor, develop and improve daily operations have been reported by many scholars, using it in more complex top management decisions has received less attention. Building on the resource-based view of the firm, this study aims to investigate top management perceptions of using business analytics for making decisions on firm resources. Design/methodology/approach This study uses semi-structured interviews to collect perceptions of 12 top managers in large firms on when and why they use business analytics in their decision-making. Findings Top managers use business analytics output as their main source of information for monitoring ongoing business performance against set targets and taking corrective actions. Concerning future-oriented planning and strategic decision-making involving more complex changes on the firms’ resource base, top managers proactively complement knowledge derived via business analytics with other sources of knowledge, such as stakeholder and expert opinions. Moreover, top managers use of business analytics depends on their own expectations of its value potential and on the expectations of their organization. Originality/value This study adds to the extant literature on the business value of business analytics by outlining the purposes and reasons for top management business analytics use. By demonstrating when and why top managers apply business analytics when making decisions on the firm’s current and future resource base, this study contributes to the discussion on the resource-based view and decision-making practices of the firm.

Leveraging belief uncertainty for informed decision making in software product line evolution

Software Product Lines (SPL) are not static software artifacts, but they evolve over time. The planning, realization, and release of a SPL requires many high-level decisions involving many different stakeholders with different expertise. Taking their opinions into account to make the right decisions is not trivial. Currently there are no mechanisms to assist stakeholders in the decision making process in an informed manner. In this paper, we propose the use of belief uncertainty in conjunction with feature models to assist in the evolution of SPLs by explicitly quantifying opinions and their associated uncertainty. We present a novel approach in which subjective logic is used to represent the opinions of stakeholders in three evolution scenarios, namely feature model evolution, next release problem and variability reduction. We apply our approach to the evolution of the Xiaomi MiBand SmartWatch SPL over the time period from July 2014 to October 2023. We present an implementation of our approach and evaluate its scalability.

Launching smart circular supply chain practices toward sociotechnological synergy: An integrative influential fast fashion model

The fast fashion industry is striving to adopt smart circular supply chain practices to achieve sociotechnological synergy to regain a clean public image. Although previous studies have proposed various models through which to guide the achievement of sociotechnological synergy, the opinions of stakeholders are still missing from these discussions. Stakeholders’ opinions can be found on various social media (including web text, ChatGPT 4.0, the Baidu Index, Google Trends, etc.) in forms that are difficult to extract and utilize, hindering the achievement of synergy. To address this shortcoming, the aim of this study is to develop an integrated influence model that comprehensively considers stakeholders’ opinions via a hybrid method. The contributions of this study are (1) the identification of aspects that can strengthen the theoretical foundation, (2) the proposal of a hybrid method for extracting different types of data to represent stakeholders’ opinions, and (3) the creation of visual diagrams to promote easy understanding to guide practice.

IMRA/SRS Delphi consensus on international standards for common core components of robotic surgical training design

Robotic surgery has expanded internationally at pace. There are multiple local robotic training pathways but there is inconsistency in standardisation of core common components for curricula internationally. A framework is required to define key objectives that can be implemented across robotic training ecosystems. This Delphi consensus aimed to provide recommendations for core considerations in robotic training design across diverse training environments internationally. A literature search was performed and an international steering committee (AG, KL, JW, HM, TC) proposed key components for contemporary robotic training design and a modified Delphi approach was used to gather stakeholder opinion. The outcomes were then discussed at a face-to-face international expert consensus at the IMRA educational session at the Society of Robotic Surgery (SRS) meeting and final voting was conducted on outstanding items. Stakeholders included robotic surgeons, proctors, trainees and robotic surgical training providers. There was consensus achieved in 139 statements organised into 15 themes. There was 100% agreement that standardised themes in robotic curricula may improve patient safety. Key take-home messages include—training curricula should be multiplatform, non-technical skills are an important component of a robotic curriculum as well as console and bedside skills, clinically relevant performance metrics should be used for assessment where available, the reliance on cadaveric and live animal models should be reduced as high-fidelity synthetic models emerge, and stepwise component training is useful for advanced procedural training. These consensus recommendations are intended to guide design of fit for purpose contemporary robotic surgical curricula. Integration of these components into robotic training pathways internationally is recommended.

Evaluation of Health Service Quality in City Hospitals

In Turkey, city hospitals play a significant role in the provision of healthcare services. This survey looked at the level of satisfaction with various hospitals. In the study, social media was one of the tools. The hospitals' websites were used to compile satisfaction ratings. After that, content analysis was used to look at the hospitals' indicators for technological, communicative, and physical quality. The study considered hospitals with 1200 beds or greater as a sampling factor in hospital selection. Hospitals are classified with the designation "Hospital" in objectives of information security and ethics. Encoding was carried out like Hos1, Hos2, Hos3, etc. for every hospital. The results of this article, which are considered significant research findings, are believed to had an important effect on improving hospital service requirements. Additionally, improvements can be made in health service delivery in line with the opinions of stakeholders. Additionally, the importance of patient satisfaction in terms of health tourism was emphasized.

Use of the florence factor in the process of identifying an Industrial City for the analysis of the marketing strategy of a settlement unit

Research objective: The study aims to find a method of identifying an industrial city and analyzing its marketing strategy. It considers the role of manufacturing enterprises and their influence on an industrial city's image and brand and analyses the theoretical relationship for the marketing strategy of a settlement unit. Methodology: The study used a quantitative research method, using the Florence index survey technique, etic orientation. Data from the Central Statistical Office for 230 cities that are not provincial capitals were analyzed. A survey method was used to confirm the results obtained - the research tool is a specially constructed survey questionnaire. Main conclusions: An industrial city is a city where the majority of residents work in industry, the main GDP comes from industry, and this characteristic is dominant in the opinion of the residents. An industrial city is a city where at least 50% of residents indicate industry as the dominant characteristic, while the second most indicated characteristic does not account for more than 25% of respondents. The validity of using the Florence coefficient in identifying an industrial city has been confirmed in empirical studies. Application of the study: An industrial city is a city in which the majority of inhabitants work in industry, the main GDP comes from industry and this character is dominant in the opinion of the inhabitants. An industrial city is a city in which a minimum of 50% of the inhabitants indicate industrialism as the dominant character, while the other character of the city is not indicated by a total of more than 25% of the surveyed respondents. The validity of using the Florence coefficient in identifying an industrial city has been confirmed in empirical studies. Originality/Novelty of the study: The literature on the subject does not address the impact of manufacturing cities on the image and brand of the city. The use of the proposed statistical tool represents a breakthrough in the initial identification of the city's character. Thanks to it, it is possible to adapt the marketing strategy of a territory to real evolutionary changes. This will highlight the qualities valued and formed in the opinions of stakeholders, the most valuable of which will be highlighted.

Leverage points for the uptake of organic food production and consumption in the United Kingdom

Organic food systems are recognised as an important component in meeting United Nations’ (UN) Sustainable Development Goals. A leverage points perspective can help to identify approaches which have the potential to facilitate transformative systemic change towards organic and sustainable farming. Using fuzzy cognitive maps developed from expert stakeholder opinions, we modelled a system of drivers of organic food production and consumption in the United Kingdom, according to the UN Sustainability Assessment of Food and Agriculture systems framework. The most influential concepts in the uptake of organic systems were related to system norms and values and social structures, such as short-term economic thinking, landowner engagement, and relationships with certification bodies. However, in a scenario analysis, organic stakeholders identified relatively shallower leverage points as more likely to change under a sustainable future, resulting in limited systemic change. This demonstrates the need for policies targeting system norms, values and social structures relating to food systems to facilitate the transition to organic and sustainable farming.

Telecom administrations across the world are making choices for regulation of key resources such as spectrum to meet 5G requirements. 5G is taking root in the Indian telecom market. This paper analyses expert stakeholder and practitioner opinion through a policy Delphi to examine what kind of regulatory and policy changes need to be made in India’s spectrum management policies in a 5G market and how these could be best adapted to the unique public policy and political economy environment of this country. It arrives at practical recommendations for planning, assigning, and pricing spectrum which could be of value to policy makers and regulators.

English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teaching practicum: Problems and suggestions for solutions

Although studies on the teaching practicum experiences of pre-service English teachers have tried to identify some problems and offer solutions, research addressing the issue from the perspectives of all stakeholders by examining both the expectations of pre-service teachers and the potential problems they face in this process is rather limited. In this regard, as part of a larger project, this session aims to uncover prospective English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers’ expectations and problems during the practicum process based on the opinions of various stakeholders. 160 pre-service teachers studying in the final year of an English language teacher education program, 22 teacher educators, and 39 English teachers supervising those teacher candidates during the practicum process participated in the study. Data came from two sources: reflective reports requested from all participants of the study in the fourth and eighth weeks of the 12-week practicum process and the focus group interviews conducted with five pre-service teachers, five university supervisors, and five cooperating teachers. The analyses documented problems related to pre-service teachers, their teaching skills, classroom management, pupils, teaching procedures, and school context. Maximizing practice opportunities in quantity and quality and higher levels of communication and interaction among the stakeholders were the main suggestions as solutions to problems. These recommendations and some suggestions for future research will potentially increase the quality and effectiveness of the practicum process.

European Network for Optimization of Veterinary Antimicrobial Therapy (ENOVAT) guidelines for antimicrobial use in canine acute diarrhoea

Acute diarrhoea is a common presentation in dogs, and a common reason for antimicrobial prescription and nutraceutical use. This evidence-based guideline provides recommendations for antimicrobial and probiotic treatment of canine acute diarrhoea (CAD). A multidisciplinary panel developed the recommendations by adhering to the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) framework. The opinions of stakeholders (general veterinary practitioners and dog owners) were collected and incorporated to ensure the applicability of this guideline. Four strong recommendations informed by high certainty evidence, and three conditional recommendations informed by very low or low certainty evidence, were drafted by the panel, along with an ungraded section on diagnostic work-up of dogs with acute diarrhoea. The ENOVAT guidelines initiative encourages national or regional guideline makers to use the evidence presented in this document, and the supporting systematic review, to draft national or local guidance documents.

International Travel for Organ Transplantation: Provider and Patient Perspectives.

Organ allocation in the United States to non-US citizen, non-US residents who travel for transplant (NC/NRTx) is controversial. Current policies may not be informed by stakeholder opinions, as limited data exist assessing the knowledge or opinions of providers or patients on this issue. A cross-sectional, hospital-based pilot survey was distributed to providers and patients from December 2019 to June 2020 at a single large urban transplant institute. Providers were members of the departments of surgery and medicine and included both transplant and nontransplant providers. Surveys included 10 questions on eligibility, prioritization, and limitations for deceased donor transplantation and 12 demographic questions. A total of 209 providers responded (61% women, median age 40) and 119 patients responded (62% women, median age 54). Awareness of eligibility for transplantation of US citizens, non-US citizens residing in the United States (NC/R), and NC/NRTx was high in both groups, though providers and patients lacked awareness of the eligibility of nonlegal NC/R (those who live in the United States who are not citizens and are not legal residents) to donate and receive organs. Overall, 79.3% of patients stated that NC/NRTx should be eligible for transplant in the United States compared with only 60.7% of providers (P = 0.001). Providers were more likely than patients to prioritize transplant to legal NC/NR over NC/NRTx (58.2% versus 35.1%, P < 000.1) and reported that families should be able to limit donations to NC/NRTx (34.9% versus 23.2%, P = 0.03). Surveyed patients and providers generally support transplant in non-US citizens; however, the strength of support varied considerably based on the legal status of the patient and the occupation of those surveyed. Larger studies are necessary to develop data-informed policy.

Revolutionizing Care: Unleashing the Potential of Digital Health Technology in Physiotherapy Management for People With Cystic Fibrosis.

This viewpoint paper explores the dynamic intersection of physiotherapy and digital health technologies (DHTs) in enhancing the care of people with cystic fibrosis (CF), in the context of advancements such as highly effective modulator therapies that are enhancing life expectancy and altering physiotherapy needs. The role of DHTs, including telehealth, surveillance, home monitoring, and activity promotion, has expanded, becoming crucial in overcoming geographical barriers and accelerated by the recent pandemic. Physiotherapy, integral to CF care since 1946, has shifted toward patient-centered approaches, emphasizing exercise training and a physically active lifestyle. The reduction in inpatient admissions due to highly effective modulator therapies has led to increased home care and online or electronic consultations, and DHTs have revolutionized service delivery, offering flexibility, self-management, and personalized care options; however, there is a need to comprehensively understand user experiences from both people with CF and physiotherapists. This paper highlights the essential exploration of user experiences to facilitate clinician adaptation to the digital requirements of modern clinical management, ensuring equitable care in the "future hospitals" arena. Identifying research gaps, this paper emphasizes the need for a thorough evaluation of DHT use in CF physiotherapy education, training, and self-monitoring, as well as the experiences of people with CF with online or electronic consultations, self-monitoring, and remote interventions. Online group exercise platforms address historical challenges relating to infection control but necessitate comprehensive evaluations of user experiences and preferences. Future-proofing DHTs within the physiotherapy management of CF demands a shift toward full integration, considering stakeholder opinions and addressing barriers. While DHTs have the potential to extend physiotherapy beyond the hospital, this paper stresses the importance of understanding user experiences, addressing digital poverty, and working toward more equitable health care access. A flexible approach in the "future hospital" is advocated, emphasizing the need for a nuanced understanding of user preferences and experiences to optimize the integration of DHTs in CF care.

An opinion was presented to divide the students into levels according to their educational background. Third, among the stakeholders who benefited from the consolidation of kindergartens, parents appeared to be the most likely. Fourth, the response was that the integration of kindergartens should be preceded by the integration of the administrative organization of central government agencies. Fifth, as a result of analyzing the names and operation directions of infants and toddlers according to the integration of kindergartens, the method of separating children by age during the integration of kindergartens It was said that children aged 3 to 5 were separated. Sixth, opinions on the name of the integrated kindergarten were answered in the following order: infant school, children's school, and play school. The conclusion of the study is that in order to promote kindergarten integration, it is necessary to provide high-quality education and childcare services that make infants and toddlers happy by considering the opinions of various stakeholders.

"Exploring the Process and Perceptions of Noise Conflicts Related to a Geothermal Project. A Case Study of Szeged, Hungary "

The use of renewable energy, including geothermal energy, is essential. Hungary stands out for its remarkable geothermal potential. However, these investments often lead to noise pollution, causing social conflicts between the local population and developers. This research presents a case study of a geothermal district heating renovation project in Szeged, Hungary. The study explores public perceptions and social conflicts related to the geothermal heating renovation, focusing on noise impacts. Local media articles reflect public perspectives, while opinions of key stakeholders (politicians, service providers) offer a broader view of geothermal drilling and its noise impacts. The study examines Szeged residents’ knowledge about the ongoing drilling, its benefits, and the conflicts it entails, particularly noise pollution. The empirical survey employs both quantitative and qualitative methods, including a questionnaire survey and online media analysis. Results show that the public lacks sufficient information about geothermal drilling and its noise impact, whilst online media coverage is unclear. Residents often confuse it with other developments, which neither media experts nor the project owner adequately clarify. Survey respondents provided a complex interpretation of noise impacts, mostly accepting the project but questioning why it was in their immediate neighbourhood and why drilling occurred at night. Inconsistent information emerged as a main problem, revealed through content analysis and compared with questionnaire results, highlighting a general issue of unawareness. Media analysis showed opportunities for public comment and consultation, but communication was often unsuccessful due to local residents’ lack of interest. Project organizers attempted to provide information through various platforms, but local media often lacked clear information, causing confusion between past and current geothermal projects and a lack of understanding of the development’s reasons and site selection criteria. Overall, there was a willingness to understand the problems associated with drilling, but this was only partially achieved due to inadequate communication.
