Stem Cells On Youtube: National Vs International Content.

YouTube is one of the most popular video-based social media sites across the globe. The role of stem cell transplant has not been deeply explored on YouTube. The current narrative review was planned to assess the viewership of content available on YouTube related to stem cells. The videos were classified based on type of content, duration, number of views, comments and number of likes. A total of 40 videos were downloaded under the search terms "stem cells in Pakistan" and "stem cells". Of them, 6(15%) were repeat videos, and 34(85%) were unique. The findings revealed that in 10(25%) most viewed videos from Pakistan, 6(60%) contained opinions from non-expert physicians. Among the 10(25%) most viewed international videos, the information providers were science educators in 4(40%) videos and researchers in 2 (20%). Notably, no content from Pakistan was present among the top relevant international videos. Over 27 million views were included in the total number of videos that were analysed. YouTube is a powerful tool to spread knowledge and support public health decision-making. However, misleading information regarding stem cell can lead to adverse outcomes.

The Impact of Online Health Information on Patient Health Behaviours and Making Decisions Concerning Health.

The number of Internet users searching for health-related issues increases significantly every year. The aim of this study was to investigate whether and how the information about health and disease obtained from the Internet by patients influenced them and how different e-health services can affect the patients' choice of the doctor. The research was based on a national survey conducted among 1000 Polish adults. The study was carried out with the use of the computer-assisted telephone interviews (CATI). The study showed that e-health facilities are increasingly affecting the patient's choice of doctor. Among the highest rated factors, the possibility of setting the date of appointment online and practice's own website were indicated. Information on health and disease obtained from the Internet influenced respondents in many areas. Almost half of health Internet users (HI-users) wanted to change their diet and increase healthy physical activity under the influence of health information obtained online. Regarding health decision making, health information obtained from the Internet caused 45% of HI-users to make an appointment to see a doctor, and 40% of them had questions concerning diagnosis and treatment. Information on health and disease obtained from the Internet undoubtedly affects patient behaviour and health decisions they make.

Air-Filled Substrate Integrated Waveguide for Smart Health Applications

@#Introduction: For “smart health” Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications, substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) is a promising component to construct a wearable microwave device. For its efficacy in wearable devices, minimizing signal losses in terms of return and transition losses in SIW is of paramount importance. To enhance its performance, this paper presents the characterization of air-filled SIW transition losses for the SIW microwave device. Method: To investigate the effect of transition length on losses, the full-wave analysis of an air-filled SIW with different lengths of the taper transition was presented. For the analysis, the linear taper is designed for the Roger RT/Duroid 6002 substrate and utilized in the Ka-band frequencies. Result: From the full-wave analysis results, the length of the transition taper can be reduced considerably while achieving a wide-bandwidth characteristic of return loss better than 20 GHz. The results also show that the transmission loss can be reliably reduced while reducing the size of the SIW component. Conclusion: The findings may contribute to the development of the compact design of wearable microwave devices having a comparable performance with the conventional waveguide.
