Checkmarx KICS Code Scanner Targeted in Widening Supply Chain Hit
TeamPCP is the likely cyber threat actor behind attacks on Trivy, Checkmarx’s KICS and VS Code plug-ins, and the LiteLLM AI library — and all signs point to more attacks to come.
How AI Coding Tools Crushed the Endpoint Security Fortress
Security vendors have spent years building up defenses around the endpoint, but one researcher says AI coding tools have brought the walls down.
Challenges of Standard Pediatric Epilepsy Monitoring and the Potential Benefits of Contactless Sensor Technologies: Exploratory Qualitative Study
Background: Epilepsy is a common neurological condition in children, and accurate detection of seizures and their frequency is essential for diagnosis and treatment. Standard monitoring using electroencephalography alongside clinical observation is often burdensome in pediatric settings, as electrodes can cause discomfort and restrict mobility. Contactless sensor technologies may offer a promising supplement by enabling monitoring […]
Coproducing an Online Platform for People With Long-Term Physical Health Conditions: Development and Usability Study
Background: There is relatively limited psychological support dedicated to people living with long-term physical health conditions and subthreshold depressive disorder. Online peer support may be an appropriate intervention to help bolster patients’ mental well-being to prevent progression of their symptoms to major depressive disorder. For interventions to be successfully integrated into the self-management routines of […]
The Relationship Between Electronic Health Literacy and Health-Related Quality of Life Among Chinese Older Adults: Cross-Sectional Study
Background: The rapid digitalization of health care has reshaped access to medical services. However, older adults often remain disadvantaged due to the digital divide. Electronic health literacy (EHL) is increasingly recognized as a determinant of health-related quality of life (HRQoL); however, its mechanisms and subgroup differences in China remain underexplored. Objective: This study aimed to […]
The Current Landscape of Remote Digital Symptom Monitoring for Patients With Lung Cancer: Scoping Review
Background: Remote digital symptom monitoring systems (rSMS) have been increasingly used in recent years to monitor symptoms, health-related quality of life, and other patient-reported outcomes in lung cancer. Previous studies have demonstrated variability in study design, types of rSMS, and outcomes used to assess benefits for patients and health care systems. However, there remains a […]
The Effect of Text Messaging on the Postoperative Pain Experience in Pediatric Patients Undergoing Thoracic Surgery: Randomized Controlled Trial
Background: Inadequately controlled postoperative pain continues to pose a significant clinical challenge in pediatric patients undergoing thoracic surgery. Objective: This randomized controlled study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of SMS-based educational support for postoperative pain management on patients’ pain experience. Methods: A total of 100 pediatric patients undergoing thoracic surgery were enrolled between December 2, […]
Effects of Virtual Reality–Based Interventions for Promoting Physical Activity in Patients With Heart Failure: Systematic Review
Background: Heart failure (HF) is a progressive chronic condition associated with reduced physical and functional capacity, psychological burden, cognitive decline, and diminished quality of life (QOL). Although exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation is beneficial, participation remains low due to accessibility, physical constraints, and motivational barriers. Virtual reality (VR)–based interventions, including immersive platforms and exergaming, may enhance accessibility […]
Understanding User Intent in Code-Mixed Sexual and Reproductive Health Queries in Urban India: Hierarchical Classification Approach Using Large Language Models
Background: Sexual and reproductive health (SRH) remains a stigmatized and taboo topic globally, limiting access to reliable information. These challenges are heightened in the Global South, where linguistic and cultural diversity further complicates information access. In India (the study context), many individuals express SRH concerns in code-mixed language, such as Hinglish (code-mixed Hindi and English), […]
Smartphone-Based Digital Phenotyping Across Health Conditions: Scoping Review
Background: Smartphone-based digital phenotyping uses built-in sensors and usage patterns to passively capture behavioral and environmental data relevant to health and has been applied extensively in mental health and chronic disease contexts. Objective: This review synthesizes studies that use smartphone-based digital phenotyping, defined as approaches that rely exclusively on onboard smartphone sensors to characterize specific […]
This scientist rewarmed and studied pieces of his friend’s cryopreserved brain
L. Stephen Coles’s brain sits cushioned in a vat at a storage facility in Arizona. It has been held there at a temperature of around −146 degrees °C for over a decade, largely undisturbed. That is, apart from the time, a little over a year ago, when scientists slowly lifted the brain to take photos […]
