Health recommender systems to facilitate collaborative decision-making in chronic disease management: A scoping review by Antonia Barbaric, Kenneth Christofferson, Susanne M Benseler, Chitra Lalloo, Alex Mariakakis, Quynh Pham, Joost F Swart, Rae S M Yeung, Joseph A Cafazzo

“…From the thematic analysis, we conclude: (a) the main goal of HRSs is to induce behavior change, but limited research investigates their effectiveness in achieving this aim; (b) studies acknowledge that theories, models, frameworks, and/or guidelines help design HRSs to elicit specific behavior change, but they do not implement them; (c) connections between CDM and HRS purpose should be more explicit; and (d) HRSs can often offer other self-management services, such as progress tracking and chatbots. Conclusions We recommend a greater emphasis on evaluation outcomes beyond algorithmic performance to determine HRS effectiveness and the creation of an evidence-driven, methodological approach to creating HRSs to optimize their use in enhancing patient care. …”

« Pas de retour à nos maisons sans satisfaction de nos revendications ». Le Hirak du Rif en actes face au Makhzen by Ahmed Chapi

“…Our main argument is that while the movement's activists employed initially (and above all) the most routine tactics of protest (such as demonstrations whose times and locations were publicly announced in advance), they progressively innovated tactically (through, for example, surprise demonstrations known as "chen-ten" and pot-banging protests), moved to new protest sites (such as the various districts of Al Hoceima and the beaches) and encouraged the involvement of heterogeneous protest profiles (many of whom are young and/or have a distant connection to the activist universe) ; these processes fostered the movement's continuity and gave it a disruptive character. …”
