The Web

Informational web sites on the World Wide Web (WWW) are another means for extension educators to transfer information to a clientele and provide access to new audiences. One of the problems inherent in the utilization of this new technology is the amount of effort required by those involved in order to become proficient enough to accomplish their goal of sharing information through a web site. Through the use of a HTML editor and the assistance from staff knowledgeable about the WWW, a web site on a main campus server was created by untrained off-campus personnel at a remote site to provide information on commercial vegetable production. Planning of the web site included targeting potential audiences, determining what information would be shared from the site, and building a team of extension and research personnel that would provide information and act as reviewers for web publications. Assistance in the form of graphics and general know how were supplied by departmental specialists. After development, the web site was maintained and refined on a regular basis through the utilization of the HTML editor and a web file transfer program.

Portable video technology is a widely available new tool with potential to be used by pediatric otolaryngology practices for patient and family education. Podcasts are media broadcasts that employ this new technology. They can be accessed via the Internet and viewed either on a personal computer or on a handheld device, such as an iPod or an MP3 player. We wished to examine the feasibility of establishing a podcast-hosting Web site. We digitally recorded pediatric otologic procedures in the operating room and saved the digital files to DVDs. We then edited the DVDs at home with video-editing software on a personal computer. Next, spoken narrative was recorded with audio-recording software and combined with the edited video clips. The final products were converted into the M4V file format, and the final versions were uploaded onto our hospital's Web site. We then downloaded the podcasts onto a high-quality portable media player so that we could evaluate their quality. All of the podcasts are now on the hospital Web site, where they can be downloaded by patients and families at no cost. The site includes instructions on how to download the appropriate free software for viewing the podcasts on a portable media player or on a computer. Using this technology for patient education expands the audience and permits portability of information. We conclude that a home computer can be used to inexpensively create informative surgery demonstrations that can be accessed via a Web site and transferred to portable viewing devices with excellent quality.

Papanicolaou Test

Background and context: Approximate 4000 new cases of cervical cancer, including carcinoma in situ, are found in Taiwan each year. More than 20% of that are in precancerous status, the age ranges from 20 to 34, equivalent to 1 out of 5 cases is young women. To deliver the message to young women to advocate cervical cancer prevention through vaccination + Papanicolaou test screening, new promotional approaches have been executed with innovative technology. Aim: 1. To elevate the understanding of the risk of HPV infection to young women between age 20 to 34 with new technology approaches. 2. Raise the awareness of cervical cancer prevention among young women. 3. Drive young women to take active role on cervical cancer prevention, particularly on HPV vaccination. 4. Encourage young women to visit gynecology clinic (OB/GYN) willingly to have regular Papanicolaou test screening. Strategy/Tactics: 1. Use humorous video + social media to attract the attention of young women, by male celebrities to remind female about HPV vaccination, and encourage them to prevent the disease with peers. 2. Invite key opinion leader (KOL) and social media influencers to resolve the passiveness, by celebrities + KOL to call on people to take action. 3. Use innovative technology/social media channels to spread and extend the meaning of this campaign. 4. Use location based service (LBS) provided by mobile service companies + GPS service to encourage young women to visit nearby OB/GYN. Program/Policy process: 1. Video of HPV and cervical cancer reminder from male KOL celebrity; in addition, HPV awareness ambassadors encourage young women to participate “vaccination + Pap smear screening”. 2. Resolve passive action by celebrities + KOL calling people to take part on the cervical cancer prevention, by sharing cervical cancer prevention messages on Facebook to influence fans to carry out the event spontaneously. 3. To encourage young women to visit nearby OB/GYN by LBS mobile text message service, and search for the nearby OB/GYN with GPS system on the map of the campaign Web site. Outcomes: The significant views from social media events: promotional video, Facebook activity, and mental quiz game have totally reached 4,889,276 views, from August 11 to November 1, 2017, the completion of promotion. Moreover, the page view of the campaign Web site had reached nearly 125,000 views and accessed 45,000 new target audience. LBS messages were read by 52,464 women, 8114 of them visited OB/GYN, which means 15.5% of young women were successfully encouraged to visit OB/GYN. What was learned: By using new technology and social media approaches to promote cervical cancer prevention to young women, we found that KOLs played significant role on influencing our target audience. By utilizing a variety of channels to communicate with the young women in new technology approaches will be the mainstream of promotion.

Circuit Function

Most microelectronics devices and circuits operate faster, consume less power, execute more functions and cost less per circuit function when the feature-sizes internal to the devices and circuits are made smaller. This is part of the stimulus for the Very High-Speed Integrated Circuits (VHSIC) program. There is also a need for smaller, more sensitive sensors in a wide range of disciplines that includes electrochemistry, neurophysiology and ultra-high pressure solid state research. There is often fundamental new science (and sometimes new technology) to be revealed (and used) when a basic parameter such as size is extended to new dimensions, as is evident at the two extremes of smallness and largeness, high energy particle physics and cosmology, respectively. However, there is also a very important intermediate domain of size that spans from the diameter of a small cluster of atoms up to near one micrometer which may also have just as profound effects on society as “big” physics.

The intestinal microbial flora has risen to be one of the important etiological factors in the development of diseases like colorectal cancer, obesity, diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease, anxiety and Parkinson's. The emergence of the association between bacterial flora and lungs led to the discovery of the gut–lung axis. Dysbiosis of several species of colonic bacteria such as Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes and transfer of these bacteria from gut to lungs via lymphatic and systemic circulation are associated with several respiratory diseases such as lung cancer, asthma, tuberculosis, cystic fibrosis, etc. Current therapies for dysbiosis include use of probiotics, prebiotics and synbiotics to restore the balance between various species of beneficial bacteria. Various approaches like nanotechnology and microencapsulation have been explored to increase the permeability and viability of probiotics in the body. The need of the day is comprehensive study of mechanisms behind dysbiosis, translocation of microbiota from gut to lung through various channels and new technology for evaluating treatment to correct this dysbiosis which in turn can be used to manage various respiratory diseases. Microfluidics and organ on chip model are emerging technologies that can satisfy these needs. This review gives an overview of colonic commensals in lung pathology and novel systems that help in alleviating symptoms of lung diseases. We have also hypothesized new models to help in understanding bacterial pathways involved in the gut–lung axis as well as act as a futuristic approach in finding treatment of respiratory diseases caused by dysbiosis.

Purpose The aim of this study was to examine how hearing aid candidates perceive user-driven and app-controlled hearing aids and the effect these concepts have on traditional hearing health care delivery. Method Eleven adults (3 women, 8 men), recruited among 60 participants who had completed a research study evaluating an app-controlled, self-fitting hearing aid for 12 weeks, participated in a semistructured interview. Participants were over 55 years of age and had varied experience with hearing aids and smartphones. A template analysis was applied to data. Results Five themes emerged from the interviews: (a) prerequisites to the successful implementation of user-driven and app-controlled technologies, (b) benefits and advantages of user-driven and app-controlled technologies, (c) barriers to the acceptance and use of user-driven and app-controlled technologies, (d) beliefs that age is a significant factor in how well people will adopt new technology, and (e) consequences that flow from the adoption of user-driven and app-controlled technologies. Specifically, suggested benefits of the technology included fostering empowerment and providing cheaper and more discrete options, while challenges included lack of technological self-efficacy among older adults. Training and support were emphasized as necessary for successful adaptation and were suggested to be a focus of audiologic services in the future. Conclusion User perceptions of user-driven and app-controlled hearing technologies challenge the audiologic profession to provide adequate support and training for use of the technology and manufacturers to make the technology more accessible to older people.

There are a multitude of reasons that a teletinnitus program can be beneficial, not only to the patients, but also within the hospital and audiology department. The ability to use technology for the purpose of tinnitus management allows for improved appointment access for all patients, especially those who live at a distance, has been shown to be more cost effective when the patients travel is otherwise monetarily compensated, and allows for multiple patient's to be seen in the same time slots, allowing for greater access to the clinic for the patients wishing to be seen in-house. There is also the patient's excitement in being part of a new technology-based program. The Gulf Coast Veterans Health Care System (GCVHCS) saw the potential benefits of incorporating a teletinnitus program and began implementation in 2013. There were a few hurdles to work through during the beginning organizational process and the initial execution of the program. Since the establishment of the Teletinnitus program, the GCVHCS has seen an enhancement in patient care, reduction in travel compensation, improvement in clinic utilization, clinic availability, the genuine excitement of the use of a new healthcare media amongst staff and patients, and overall patient satisfaction.
