Stakeholders’ Perceptions Regarding Digital Therapeutics Reimbursement in South Korea: Qualitative Study
Authors: Sim Boram , Ju Jin Han , Kim Byungsoo , Lee Jin Yong
Published: November 2023

Background

Digital therapeutics (DTx) are therapeutic interventions driven by software and directly provided to patients, allowing them to manage their health with ease in any setting. A growing interest in DTx has spurred a discussion concerning their reimbursement pathways. However, DTx are still at a premature stage, with insufficient evidence on effectiveness, efficiency, and safety. Currently, although industries desire to quickly enter the market, especially by getting their products reimbursed by the National Health Insurance (NHI) fund, the NHI is cautious about DTx due to their uncertainties. Thus, public discussion and social consensus are crucial in deciding whether to reimburse DTx by the NHI fund.

Objective

This study examined multiple stakeholders’ awareness and attitudes toward DTx and perceptions of regulatory pathways for adopting DTx.

Methods

In-depth interviews were conducted with 11 stakeholders in South Korea (industry: n=4, health care: n=3, academia: n=2, and consumer: n=2) using semistructured guidelines. They were purposively sampled to identify individuals with expertise in DTx and NHI policies. The interviews were conducted either in person or via a videoconference for 45-70 minutes. Qualitative data were analyzed using directed content analysis, which uses interview guidelines as an analytical framework.

Results

Findings were divided into three categories: (1) awareness and attitude toward DTx, (2) perception of whether DTx are worth entering the market and being reimbursed by the NHI fund, and (3) perception of how to enter the market and how to reimburse DTx by the NHI fund if they are worth it. Although consumer stakeholders were not familiar with the basic concept of DTx, the other stakeholders understood it thoroughly. However, all participants showed positive attitudes and acceptance of DTx. Most of them responded that DTx are worth entering the market, but they could not reach an agreement on the pathways for DTx to enter the market. Although participants were in favor of the reimbursement of DTx in principle, they responded that a conservative approach is required due to insufficient clinical evidence for DTx.

Conclusions

We found that stakeholders in South Korea had positive attitudes toward DTx, perceived them as worth using, and agreed to allow them to enter the market. The main issue was not the problem of the technology itself but the difference in opinion as to the pathways for reimbursement. Therefore, this study concluded that the NHI fund, which is operated very conservatively, is insufficient to quickly adopt and implement DTx. Various reimbursement methods, including tax-based financing, raising innovation funds for new technologies, and pilot studies using the NHI fund, should be used to rapidly generate clinical evidence and reduce the uncertainties of DTx to secure a stable market.

Authors: Wang Xinyi , Su Anping , Liu Feng , Gong Yanping , Wei Tao , Gong Rixiang , Zhu Jingqiang , Li Zhihui , Lei Jianyong
Published: November 2023

BACKGROUND

In recent years, the new generation of telecommunication technologies has profoundly changed the traditional medical industry. To alleviate the medical difficulties faced by patients with thyroid diseases, hospitals have opened web-based visits and actively combined online-to-offline outpatient services.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to explore differences between office and web-based outpatient services from doctors’ and patients’ perspectives, illustrate the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on outpatient services, and provide clues for improving the online-to-offline mode of care for patients with thyroid diseases.

METHODS

We collected the complete web-based and office outpatient records of the Thyroid Surgery Center of West China Hospital. A total of 300,884 completed patient encounters occurred (201,840 office visits and 99,044 web-based visits) from January 1, 2019, to May 31, 2022. We performed logistic regression to evaluate the association between the chosen visit type and patients’ sociodemographic characteristics.

RESULTS

The number of web-based visits rapidly increased since March 2020 and reached 45.1% (4752/10,531) of all encounters in December 2021. The COVID-19 pandemic dramatically accelerated the development of web-based visits. Web-based visits were preferred by patients 18-45 years old (odds ratio [OR] 2.043, 95% CI 1.635-2.552, P<.001), patients with relatively high-paying jobs (technical staff: OR 1.278, 95% CI 1.088-1.479, P=.003; office clerk: OR 1.25, 95% CI 1.07-1.461, P=.005; national public servant: OR:1.248, 95% CI 1.042-1.494, P=.02), and patients living in Sichuan Province (excluding Chengdu; OR 1.167, 95% CI 1.107-1.23, P<.001). The medicine cost (P<.001) and examination cost (P<.001) of office visits were significantly higher than those of web-based visits.

CONCLUSIONS

Web-based outpatient visits have increased rapidly in recent years, and the COVID-19 pandemic has boosted their development. The preference for web-based visits was influenced by the socioeconomic and demographic characteristics of both patients and doctors.

The Study on China-ASEAN Cooperation under “the Belt and Road” Initiative
Authors: Yujin Yang
Published: November 2023

Since “the Belt and Road” initiative was proposed ten years ago, ASEAN has always been a priority region. China and Southeast Asian countries, adhering to the principle of extensive consultation, joint contribution, and shared benefits, have made significant achievements in political consultation, economic cooperation, cultural exchanges, environmental protection, and other aspects. In the new international political and economic situation, both sides are facing challenges from factors such as intervention from foreign powers, political uncertainty within ASEAN countries, competition for economic development space, and misunderstanding and concerns about China’s rise. Nevertheless, China and ASEAN are geographically connected by mountains and rivers, historically by humanities. With the RCEP implemented and the RMB regionalized in ASEAN, cooperation between China and ASEAN in emerging fields such as the digital commerce and green energy will see more benefits. In order to better promote China ASEAN cooperation, China should maintain the regional center status of ASEAN, solidly promote bilateral trade and enterprise investment, through cultural exchanges and international public opinion promotion, tell China’s story well, win the hearts of ASEAN people, and enhance trust between each other.
On the Emotional Colors and Performance Techniques in Brahms' Interlude Op.118 No.2
Authors: Zeng Xiaoan , Lai Junjin
Published: November 2023

Johannes Brahms was the last German Austrian classical master of the romantic period. In this era of significant changes in music style, Brahms' early creative style still retained some traces of classical style. However, in his later years, he became more passionate about small genre lyrical works. I believe that these works must be the gentlest and most monologue works of Brahms' life. The interlude Op118 No.2, created in the late period of Brahms, possesses extremely clever creative techniques and extremely beautiful melodies, and is later known as the "Love Letter to Clara". The emotions and performance techniques involved are worth further exploration.

Authors: Honrao Shivam S
Published: November 2023

The rapid proliferation of mobile devices has led to a significant increase in the cases of mobile theft and unauthorized access to personal data. To address these security concerns, an “Antitheft Mobile Tracking and Monitoring System” is proposed. The application aims to enhance the security of mobile devices by providing users with the means to track and recover their stolen or lost devices. The Antitheft Mobile Tracking and Monitoring System offers a comprehensive solution to combat mobile theft and enhance device security. By combining real-time GPS tracking, image capturing and use of mail protocols to facilitate them has provided it with capabilities with strong authentication measures, the system provides users with effective tools to mitigate the risks associated with mobile device theft. As mobile devices continue to play an integral role in modern life, such security measures are essential to protect user privacy and personal information. The widespread adoption of mobile devices has revolutionized the way we communicate, work, and access information. With this technological advancement, however, comes an unfortunate increase in the incidents of mobile theft and unauthorized access to personal data. The loss of a mobile device not only represents a financial setback but also exposes users to potential breaches of their privacy and security. This real-time tracking capability enables users and authorized personnel, such as law enforcement agencies, to pinpoint the device's location accurately.
Tracking People Using Face Recognition
Authors: Varanasi Amit Maheshwar
Published: November 2023

In recent years, face recognition has emerged as an active field within computer vision, driven by potential applications and the parallel development of algorithmic techniques alongside the increasing availability of cost-effective computers with sufficient computational power to support these algorithms. As a biometric information process, a face recognition system offers wider applicability and operational range compared to other biometric methods such as fingerprinting, iris scanning, or signature recognition. The system employs a blend of methodologies across two primary domains: face detection and recognition. Face detection is executed on real-time images without a specific application context in mind. Processes involved in the system encompass white balance correction, segmentation of skin-like regions, extraction of facial features, and the extraction of face images from a face candidate. The integration of a face classification method utilizing a Feedforward Neural Network is a key component of the system. The system's performance is evaluated using a database containing 10 individuals with 20 to 30 photos of each person.

Published: November 2023

Anemia is a condition where the mass of erythrocytes or hemoglobin in circulation cannot fulfill its function to provide oxygen to body tissues. Anemia in adolescent girls is still quite high; the world prevalence of anemia ranges from 40 to 88%. Community service activities aim to screen (check) hemoglobin levels as early detection of anemia using the Point of Care Testing (POCT) method to determine the relationship between age and education to the incidence of anemia and as a preventive effort to minimize anemia. This activity was carried out through counseling about hemoglobin using the lecture method at the Islamic Boarding School Roudlotul Musthofa in May with 23 female students as respondents, which were then analyzed using the Wilcoxon statistical test. The results of the questionnaire before counseling (pre-test) obtained an average of 80, then counseling was carried out, and the average results of the questionnaire (post-test) were 94. The results of the Wilcoxon Test analysis showed p (Asymp.Sig. (2-tailed)) = 0.000 < α (0.05), which means that there is a significant influence between the knowledge of junior high school students of Raudlatul Mustofa Islamic Boarding School Tulungagung Regency and hemoglobin counseling conducted.

A study on the Bioecological Characteristics of the Exotic Pumpkinseed (Lepomis gibbosus) Population in Gökpınar Dam Lake (Western Anatolia, Türkiye)
Authors: Yıldırım Ufuk Gürkan , Çetinkaya Osman
Published: November 2023

This study was conducted to determine some bioecological characteristics of Lepomis gibbosus (L. 1758), commonly known as pumpkinseed sunfish, which spreads in Gökpınar Dam Lake (GDL) in Denizli Province. The fish samples were captured with an experimental seine net and multimesh gillnet from May 2019 to April 2020. During the samplings, certain physicochemical parameters of GDL were measured, habitat utilization, relations to environmental variables, feeding habits and interspecific interactions with other fishes of L. gibbosus individuals were observed. It is observed that GDL provides a suitable habitat for L. gibbosus in terms of water quality and other ecological requirements. A total of 1005 L. gibbosus individuals, consisting of 302 females, 605 males, and 98 juveniles, were sampled throughout the study, and biometric studies were conducted. In the population males were found to be dominant. The averages were determined as follows; total length as 5.82±2.09 cm (2.46-11.34), weight as 4.94±4.67g (0.20- 34.65), and condition factor as 1.71±0.24. The ages were determined between 0+ to II+and Age-length relationship (VBGE) was estimated as L_(t=) 19,85(1-e^(-0,2744(t+0,272) ) ) Spawning occurs between April and June in individuals at the age of I+. It has been observed that the species exhibits good growth rates in this habitat, displays opportunistic omnivorous feeding behavior, preys on another invasive alien species, Gambusia holbrooki, present in the lake, and competes with the same species for habitat sharing. It has been determined that L. gibbosus has formed a self-sustaining population in GDL, but it utilizes a limited lake area as its habitat. In conclusion, GDL is considered as a hydrologically unstable and highly variable habitat. L. gibbosus population of GDL exhibits significant similarities in terms of bioecological characteristics with populations that spread outside its natural spreading area. As L.gibbosus is an exotic fish and might be have invasive traits, it is necessary to monitor of the population regularly, and control measures should be taken to prevent its spread to other inland water bodies.

Published: November 2023

Bu derleme Türkiye denizlerinin biyolojik çeşitliliğini gelecek kuşaklara aktarılması gerektiğini göstermek, denizlerde koruma alanlarının gerekliliğini ortaya koymak için yapılmıştır. Denizel çeşitliliği tehdit eden birçok etken vardır. İnsan baskısı, iklim değişikliğiyle bağlantılı olan etkiler, kıyı ve deniz alanları ile sıkı sıkıya bağlı olan toplumları ve ekonomilerini etkilemektedir. Bazı ülkeler, bu etkileri azaltmak için çaba harcamış ve biyolojik çeşitliliğin korumasını sağlamak için Deniz ve Kıyı Koruma Alanları (DKKA) oluşturmuşlardır. Denizel zenginlikleri görmezden gelmek ve kısa vadeli çıkarlar için yok olmalarına izin vermek, bu konuda toplumu bilgilendirmeye yönelik adımlar atmamak, gelecek kuşaklara bırakabileceğimiz büyük bir ekonomik potansiyeli yok etmektir. Türkiye denizleri biyolojik çeşitlilik bakımından zengin olmasına karşın, bu zenginliğin kaydını oluşturmak için daha fazla çalışma yapılmalıdır. Deniz alanlarının aşırı kullanımı neticesinde bu alanlar bozulmuş ve ekosistemi yok olma tehdidi ile karşı karşıya bırakmıştır. Bu bozulma kıyı ve deniz alanlarının biyolojik çeşitliliğini ve verimliliğini yok ederek, bu alanlarda geri dönüşü mümkün olmayan zararlar bırakmaktadır. Bu olumsuz durumlardan deniz ekosistemini korumak için denizel biyolojik çeşitliliğin fazla olduğu yerlerde kontrollü alanlar oluşturulmalıdır. Türkiye üç tarafı denizlerle çevrili olmasına rağmen, Deniz Koruma Alanları (DKA) statüsüne sahip koruma alanı yoktur. Bu derlemede konuyla ilgili çalışmalar ve mevcut öneriler ele alınacaktır.

Environmental conditions can have an impact on study habits. Meanwhile, various theories state that study habits have an impact on academic achievement. On the other hand, there are students who choose to live in dormitories (hostel living students) and there are also students who go home every day (day-scholar). Thus, this condition is assumed to have an impact on student’s academic achievement. The aim of this research is to investigate differences in academic achievement between hostel living students and day-scholars. The sample was 213 undergraduate students at the University of Peshawar, Pakistan (102 day-scholars and 112 hostel living students). Student study habits are measured by the Study Habits Inventory (SHI) developed by Jones & Slate (1990) and student academic achievement is measured by the Cumulative Achievement Index (GPA). The results showed that study habits significantly predicted increased student academic achievement. Hostel living students have higher scores in study habits and academic achievement compared to day-scholars. A significant positive correlation was found between study habits and academic achievement. This shows that the dormitory environment encourages focused learning and contributes to academic achievement. Interventions for day-scholars should target improved time management and accessible study spaces to improve study habits and academic achievement.
