Asthma patients' and physicians' perspectives on the burden and management of asthma: post-hoc analysis of APPaRENT 1 and 2 to assess predictors of treatment adherence
CONCLUSIONS: Results revealed an important disconnect between patient and physician treatment goals and treatment adherence, suggesting that strategies for improving patient adherence to maintenance medication are needed, focusing on younger patients with milder disease. High reliever use despite good adherence may indicate poor disease control. Personalised care considering patient characteristics alongside physician training in motivational communication and shared decision-making could improve patient management and outcomes.PMID:38636683 | DOI:10.1016/j.rmed.2024.107637 (Source: Respiratory Care)

Facing the digital frontier: exploring user acceptance of electronic health records in an urban, rural and remote setting in the Philippines
CONCLUSION: Co-producing interventions with primary care providers is crucial in sustaining EHR systems. Rather than developing a technology based on the surveillance needs of policymakers, an EHR developed from the grassroots was shown to be well-received by end-users.PMID:38637020 | PMC:PMC11029422 | DOI:10.1136/bmjoq-2023-002621 (Source: Rural Remote Health)

Acute myocardial infarction with e ‐cigarette or vaping‐use associated lung injury in a young Filipino vape user
We present a 22-year-old Filipino male with sudden chest pain. He had no known comorbidities but had a two-year history of daily vape use. Work-up revealed elevated cardiac markers, anteroseptal ST-elevation myocardial infarction, hypokinesia of the anterior wall and interventricular septum, and an ejection fraction of 30%. Chest radiography showed consolidation pneumonia but culture studies and Biofire Pneumonia Panel were negative for microbial detection. Coronary angiography revealed chronic total obstruction of the mid-left anterior descending (LAD) and right coronary arteries (RCA). Percutaneous coronary angioplasty o...

Cost of SARS-CoV-2 self-test distribution programmes by different modalities: a micro-costing study in five countries (Brazil, Georgia, Malaysia, Ethiopia and the Philippines)
Conclusions
Our results indicate that it is likely to cost between $2.44 and $12.78 per test to distribute COVID-19 self-tests across common settings in five heterogeneous countries. Cost-effectiveness analyses using these results will allow policymakers to make informed decisions on optimally scaling up COVID-19 self-test distribution programmes across diverse settings and evolving needs.
