This document discusses a comprehensive approach to diabetes self-management support using mobile technology. It outlines how mHealth interventions can educate and empower both patients and providers. A range of mHealth tools are proposed, including text messaging programs, smartphone apps, online education, telemonitoring, and video conferencing with specialists. These tools aim to enhance self-management, provide ongoing support, and help integrate care across community and clinical settings. An mHealth system is envisioned that combines population health data, shared care plans, and a suite of tailored digital tools to improve diabetes control.
Improving health literacy and self-management for seniors with congestive heart failure through home care can lead to fewer medical emergencies and hospital visits, as well as better overall health. However, seniors often face obstacles to health literacy like not understanding medical explanations, medications, or treatments due to physical or mental limitations. For home care to be effective, the senior must want to take an active role in their own health needs while the caregiver listens to doctors, takes notes, ensures understanding, gathers materials, and keeps daily logs of weight and knows when to contact doctors.
This document discusses how programming can help improve health by discussing a diabetes management application. It explains how the application can remotely track blood glucose levels, insulin, and carbohydrates to monitor blood sugar. It also notes that the application helps users remember to take medications on time and can assist nurses in managing patients' conditions. While the application is useful, the document emphasizes that people should still take responsibility for managing their own physical health.
Realistically, no kind of technology will be able to replace the human aspect of treating patients in person, but computerizing some human-force is definitely a huge part of dietetics in the future.

Dolores Van Bourgondien developed a model for a synergistic approach to health and wellness that combines medical care with fitness, nutrition, and mind-body disciplines. Prior approaches have been fractured, with little collaboration between areas. This has led to poor health outcomes like increased obesity, hypertension, and cancer rates. A synergistic model integrates health, fitness, nutrition, and mind-body practices to work together towards the shared goal of prevention and wellness. Periodic screening, exercise, diet, stress management, and other healthy behaviors can help treat and prevent chronic diseases.

Before you design any nutrition education intervention, whether it is a few sessions or a larger program with several components, it is important to determine your intervention focus and identify your intended primary audience. When those have been determined, you will need detailed information on the behaviors and practices that contribute to the issue or problem you have selected as your intervention focus. Step 1 worksheets will help you conduct assessments to obtain the information you will need.
Think of yourself as a detective as you work through these worksheets. You are trying to find out as much as you can to determine which core behaviors or behavioral goals will be the targets for your educational sessions.
The information you collect may be quite extensive, depending on the scope and duration of your intervention, and will vary by category. Cite information sources (e.g., journal article, government report, observation, interview) used in the worksheet in a bibliography at the end of this step.
At the end of the Step 1 worksheets, you should have products for Steps 1A, 1B, and 1C as follows:
Step 1A: Health issues or needs (one or two) and primary intended audience for the nutrition education intervention. Examples are “overweight in teenagers” or “low rates of breastfeeding in a low-income audience.”
Step 1B: High-priority behaviors contributing to the selected issues. A set of one to a few nutrition-related behaviors or community practices that contribute to the health issue(s) that you identified.
Step 1C: Statement of the program’s behavioral or action goals. The behavioral or action goals describe the purpose or behavioral outcomes for the program in terms of behaviors or community practices.
Use these worksheets as guides to help you identify program behavioral goals. Cite information sources in the text and add references to the bibliography at the end of the step. Electronic versions of these worksheets are available
at http://nutrition.jbpub.com/education/2e. If you are unable to access the worksheets electronically, you can write onto this blank worksheet or create a text document that uses the same flow of information.
Step 1A: Issues and intended audience
Describe the demographics of your audience (e.g., age, subgroup, and ethnicity) and the location of the site.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
