Patient-targeted mobile applications in healthcare
This article explores the impact of these applications on frontline care and patient wellbeing, evaluating the literature surrounding the benefits and challenges of patient-targeted mobile applications in health care and analysing the limitations of existing research. The proclaimed benefits of such applications are not always evidence based. Furthermore, many healthcare applications are created by laypeople and not validated by healthcare authorities, creating a potential to cause patient harm. Further research is needed to identify long-term effects on both healthcare systems and individuals' psychosocial wellbeing. Howe...

Where are you really from? Racial microaggressions and how to be an ally or active bystander
Br J Hosp Med (Lond). 2023 Aug 2;84(8):1-9. doi: 10.12968/hmed.2023.0259. Epub 2023 Aug 21.ABSTRACTRacial microaggressions are often subtle and frequent occurences in the lives of people from marginalised racial groups.
