Abstract: Since 1995, Taiwan’s National Health Insurance (NHI) has tracked the healthcare data for Taiwan’s entire population. As of July 2019, a total of 2.47 billion medical examination reports have been collected, and the amount of data is very large. To cope with these large amounts of medical expenditure data and move towards the goal of the accurate review, Taiwan’s Ministry of health and welfare began to open its medical imaging database to biotechnology and healthcare firms, using artificial intelligence (AI) to help explain the patient’s CT and MRI results, and take AI as a tool to review health insurance benefits.

  • The Three-In-One Assistive Technologies for Seniors—Support, Move, Table
    Technical Report Page 1 of 7 The three-in-one assistive technologies for seniors—support, move, table Hsiu-Yang Hsu1, Jung-Mei Tsai1,2, Miao Wu1 1Department of Nursing, Mackay Memorial Hospital, New Taipei City 25160, Taiwan; 2Department of Nursing, Mackay Medical College, Mackay Junior College of Medicine, Nursing, and Management and College of Nursing and Health Sciences, DAYEH University, Taiwan Correspondence to: Miao Wu. Department of Nursing, Mackay Memorial Hospital, No.45, Min-sheng Rd., Tamsui District, New Taipei City 25160, Taiwan. Email: [email protected]. Abstract: We offer the “supportive = assistive” technologies senior citizens need in order to improve the safety of medical visiting, the quality of medical caring, and the satisfaction with environmental security. The Three-in-One Assistive Technologies for Seniors are designed in accordance with the present circumstance to not only be available as clinic equipment and facilities, but also extensive for the continual use of wards or households. In this regard, the goal of this innovative design is to make them—medical apparatus, personal movement assistive technologies, daily living assistive technologies—equivalent. Keywords: Assistive technologies; innovative design; senior care; moving safety Received: 28 August 2018; Accepted: 21 May 2019; published: 28 June 2019. doi: 10.21037/ht.2019.06.01 View this article at: http://dx.doi.org/10.21037/ht.2019.06.01 Motivation for invention The rate of Taiwanese old age population (aged over 65) reached 7 percent in 1993 and went up to 12.51 percent at the end of 2015 (Department of Statistics, Ministry of the Interior, 2016). To meet the needs of the aging population, safety measures should be properly added to medical equipment and environment, establishing a friendlier and safer medical environment for senior citizens.

  • (IL-1R) Mediates Epilepsy-Induced Sleep Disruption
    Huang et al. BMC Neurosci (2016) 17:74 DOI 10.1186/s12868-016-0309-0 BMC Neuroscience RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Interleukin‑1 receptor (IL‑1R) mediates epilepsy‑induced sleep disruption Tzu‑Rung Huang1†, Shuo‑Bin Jou2†, Yu‑Ju Chou1, Pei‑Lu Yi3*, Chun‑Jen Chen4 and Fang‑Chia Chang1,5,6* Abstract Background: Sleep disruptions are common in epilepsy patients. Our previous study demonstrates that homeo‑ static factors and circadian rhythm may mediate epilepsy-induced sleep disturbances when epilepsy occurs at different zeitgeber hours. The proinflammatory cytokine, interleukin-1 (IL-1), is a somnogenic cytokine and may also be involved in epileptogenesis; however, few studies emphasize the effect of IL-1 in epilepsy-induced sleep disrup‑ tion. We herein hypothesized that IL-1 receptor type 1 (IL-1R1) mediates the pathogenesis of epilepsy and epilepsy- induced sleep disturbances. We determined the role of IL-1R1 by using IL-1R1 knockout (IL-1R1 / KO) mice. − − Results: Our results elucidated the decrease of non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep during the light period in IL-1R / mice and confirmed the somnogenic role of IL-1R1. Rapid electrical amygdala kindling was performed to induce− epilepsy− at the particular zeitgeber time (ZT) point, ZT13. Our results demonstrated that seizure thresholds induced by kindling stimuli, such as the after-discharge threshold and successful kindling rates, were not altered in IL-1R / mice when compared to those obtained from the wildtype mice (IL-1R / mice). This result suggests that IL−-1R1− is not involved in kindling-induced epileptogenesis. During sleep, ZT13+ kindling+ stimulation significantly enhanced NREM sleep during the subsequent 6 h (ZT13-18) in wildtype mice, and sleep returned to the baseline the following day.
