Association of Accelerometer-Measured Light-Intensity Physical Activity with Cardiovascular Diseases: A Large Cohort Study.

Background: Light-intensity physical activity (LPA) constitutes a substantial portion of daily activities; however, it is more challenging to record and measure accurately compared to moderate- to vigorous-intensity physical activity (MVPA). Consequently, the health benefits associated with LPA are frequently overlooked. Our study aimed to investigate the associations of LPA pattern including obje...

Digital and Smart Technologies for Early Pressure Injury Detection and Prevention in Stroke and Mobility-Impaired Patients: A Scoping Review.

BACKGROUND: Pressure injuries remain a major complication among stroke and other mobility-impaired populations. Digital and smart technologies are increasingly used to support early tissue-risk detection, monitoring, and prevention-related care processes. However, evidence remains dispersed across technology types, clinical functions, and care settings. METHODS: This scoping review followed the Jo...
