During our selection, we aimed to include entries for each of the most popular proximity tracing protocols, to represent a wide variety of countries and to showcase the various combination of technologies and privacy approaches with respect to the following criteria: the adopted proximity tracing protocol, the technology used for performing the contact tracing, the set of personal data required to be shared by the app user and, finally, the resilience to replay and relay attacks. doi = nan id = cord-299035-vnyv0oj2 author = Chen, Yalan title = Intelligent Rehabilitation Assistance Tools for Distal Radius Fracture: A Systematic Review Based on Literatures and Mobile Application Stores date = 2020-09-29 keywords = DRF; app; rehabilitation summary = title: Intelligent Rehabilitation Assistance Tools for Distal Radius Fracture: A Systematic Review Based on Literatures and Mobile Application Stores OBJECTIVE: To systematically analyze the existing intelligent rehabilitation mobile applications (APPs) related to distal radius fracture (DRF) and evaluate their features and characteristics, so as to help doctors and patients to make evidence-based choice for appropriate intelligent-assisted rehabilitation. This study provides reference for patients with different needs to choose appropriate intelligent auxiliary rehabilitation tools: the services provided by intelligent intervention and monitoring APPs are more humanized with easier instruction to operate, which is suitable for middle-aged and elderly patients who cannot master APP skillfully; the rehabilitation gaming APPs are more interesting, but the operation and use process is relatively complicated, which are more suitable for younger patients; and the angle measurement APPs require relevant rehabilitation theory knowledge and are more suitable for patients to utilize under the guidance of medical staff or with the assistance of family members. With the development of the mHealth medical model, intelligent rehabilitation APPs and tools are gradually being used in clinical and patient independent health management. doi = 10.1155/2020/7613569 id = cord-350000-eqn3kl5p author = Drissi, Nidal title = An Analysis on Self-Management and Treatment-related Functionality and Characteristics of Highly Rated Anxiety Apps date = 2020-07-30 keywords = anxiety; app; health; mental; user summary = The objective of this study is to provide an analysis of treatment and management-related functionality and characteristics of high-rated mobile applications (apps) for anxiety, which are available for Android and iOS systems. Results also showed that 51% of the selected apps used various gamification features to motivate users to keep using them, 32% provided social features including chat, communication with others and links to sources of help; 46% offered offline availability; and only 19% reported involvement of mental health professionals in their design.

To examine the humoral response, species-specific antibodies against IgG were produced and used to evaluate serum IgG levels in killer whale by radial immunodiffusion assay (41) and by competitive ELISA in bottlenose dolphins (42, 43) . Serum total protein analysis were used to assess health status in several cetaceans species such as pantropical spotted dolphins (Stenella attenuata) (48), beluga (49) , minke whales (Balaenoptera acutorostrata) (50) and killer whales (51) as well as in other marine mammals, like harbor seals (Phoca vitulina) (52) and walruses (Odobenus rosmarus) (53) . The availability of sensitive markers of inflammation both for free-ranging and managed marine mammals is nowadays considered fundamental to evaluate the health status and, in rehabilitation setting, to monitor the response to therapy and to define the prognosis. doi = 10.3389/fimmu.2019.01220 id = cord-030529-2wkes9nk author = Goggin, Gerard title = COVID-19 apps in Singapore and Australia: reimagining healthy nations with digital technology date = 2020-08-14 keywords = Australia; COVID; Health; Minister; Singapore; app summary = In this article, I consider the development, deployment and imagined uses of apps in two countries: Singapore, a pioneer in the field, with its TraceTogether app, and Australia, a country that adapted Singapore''s app, devising its own COVIDSafe, as key to its national public health strategy early in the crisis. The data sets generated by smartphones, computers, apps and people''s use of them, such as that data collected by Apple and Google, were used by public health officials, researchers and journalists to map population or district-level activity and movement, leading to the very interesting charts, graphs and visualisations in news and current affairs reports and features seeking to map and analyse the spread of COVID and its impact on social and economic activity. With much at stake in terms of public health concerns at a critical juncture of the COVID pandemic, the Australian government emphasised that it was keen to adopt a ''consent-based'' model, hence its interest in adapting the Singapore TraceTogether app. doi = 10.1177/1329878x20949770 id = cord-298569-174bzxdh author = Gånheim, Charina title = Acute phase proteins as indicators of calf herd health date = 2006-03-20 keywords = SAA; app; group summary = The potential for using acute phase proteins (APPs) in the assessment of herd health was studied by examining the levels of serum haptoglobin, serum amyloid A (SAA) and plasma fibrinogen in relation to clinical findings and leukocyte counts in calves. The aim of this study was to further evaluate the potential of using serum APPs in the assessment of overall calf herd health by examining the levels of haptoglobin, SAA and fibrinogen in relation to clinical findings and leukocyte counts in calves in farms specialised for beef production. This result was Table 2 Mean (SD) number of sampling days per calf with levels of serum haptoglobin, serum amyloid A (SAA) and plasma fibrinogen values above basal levels A in two groups (A and B) of calves sampled on ten occasions during the six week period after housing surprising as none of the animals had a patent infection with the presence of larvae in faeces. doi = 10.1016/j.tvjl.2006.01.011 id = cord-280449-7tfvmwyi author = Hoplock, Lisa B. title = Perceptions of an evidence-based empathy mobile app in post-secondary education date = 2020-08-25 keywords = Faculty; app; participant; student summary = The purpose of the present research is to identify the target market, demand, and price point as well as to solicit student and instructor/professor perceptions of the empathy-training mobile app. Addressing Research Question 1 (who would want to use this app), 44% of students and 53% of instructors/professors said that their program features at least one course that focuses on interpersonal communication. Faculties from where most professors and instructors indicated that they had an interpersonal communication course in their program included Business, Education, Health Sciences, Law, and Social Work. For example, one participant (man, student, Faculty of Engineering) wrote, "low chance of repeated use, requires time commitment and analysis." Together, these responses provide additional insight into potential concerns, factors to consider when creating the app, and the target market (e.g., offer a free trial, ensure reliable security, promote broad applicability). doi = 10.1007/s10639-020-10311-3 id = cord-029354-c8sbqiyy author = Ivers, Louise C title = Can digital contact tracing make up for lost time? date = 2020-07-16 keywords = app; contact summary = Contact tracing is a fundamental public health intervention, and a mainstay in efforts to control and contain severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic. 1 Regions with the most successful containment to date have approached the pandemic with integrated measures that include cohesive leadership, effective communication, physical distancing, wearing of face coverings, improvements in the built environment, promotion of hand hygiene, and support for the staff, supplies, and systems needed to care for patients-with testing and contact tracing as cornerstones of the approach. Along with efforts to expand conventional contact tracing programmes, there has been an ongoing debate about the value of digital contact tracing, ranging from issues of privacy, questions about efficacy, lower user adoption rates, and concern from some public health experts that mobile apps might distract resources from the core work of conventional contact tracing. doi = 10.1016/s2468-2667(20)30160-2 id = cord-034677-40k68edc author = Jahnel, Tina title = Digitales Contact Tracing: Dilemma zwischen Datenschutz und Public Health Nutzenbewertung date = 2020-11-05 keywords = App; Corona; Daten; Warn summary = Danach kamen allerdings nur noch wenige neue Downloads dazu (Zahl: 18,4 Millionen, Stand: 22.09.2020) (5), auch wenn die Ergebnisse einer wiederholten Online-Befragung von Internet-Nutzer*innen durch die TU München und die Initiative D21 zeigen, dass die Akzeptanz für die deutsche Corona-Warn-App seit Juni 2020 generell gestiegen ist (6) . Vor dem Hintergrund der Nutzenbewertung und nachzuweisenden Wirksamkeit von Contact Tracing Apps, wie der Corona-Warn-App, stellt sich die Frage, was als ein positiver Eff ekt definiert und gemessen werden kann. Allerdings würde dies zu den oben bereits genannten Annahmen zusätzlich voraussetzen, dass die App korrekt und durchgängig genutzt wird und positive Testergebnisse auf einen Corona-Test auch über die App gemeldet werden. Um in Zukunft besser vorbereitet zu sein, sollten Lehren aus der Entwicklung der Corona-Warn-App dieser Pandemie gezogen und der Frage nachgegangen werden, ob es einen Mittelweg für eine Contact-Tracing-App gibt, die den Datenschutzanforderungen entspricht, es aber gleichzeitig erlaubt, epidemiologischrelevante Daten auf freiwilliger Basis zu sammeln. doi = 10.1007/s11623-020-1367-0 id = cord-005372-7x8ro8p2 author = Jiménez, Luisa Fernanda Mancipe title = Association of swine influenza H1N1 pandemic virus (SIV-H1N1p) with porcine respiratory disease complex in sows from commercial pig farms in Colombia date = 2014-08-08 keywords = PRDC; PRRSV; SIV; app summary = PRDC is caused by a combination of viral and bacterial agents, such as porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), swine influenza virus (SIV), Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae (Myh), Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (APP), Pasteurella multocida and Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2). Our findings indicate that positive farms have increased risk of PRDC presentation, in particular, PCV2, APP and Myh. Swine infl uenza is an acute, highly contagious respiratory disease resulting from infection with type A infl uenza virus, a member of the Orthomyxoviridae family. PRDC results from a combination of viral and bacterial agents, including porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), swine influenza virus (SIV), Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae (Myh), Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (APP), Pasteurella multocida and porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) (Kim J, et al., 2003) . The main goal of the current research was to generate surveillance, epidemiological, antigenic as well as phylogenetic data to ascertain the presence of swine influenza (H1N1) pandemic virus and determine its association with PRDC (PRRSV, Myh, APP and PCV2) in sows from production farms in Colombia. doi = 10.1007/s12250-014-3471-5 id = cord-031175-4dm4asen author = Joo, Jaehun title = Resolving the tension between full utilization of contact tracing app services and user stress as an effort to control the COVID-19 pandemic date = 2020-09-01 keywords = COVID-19; Code; app; contact summary = Thus, for being required by both governments, Self-quarantine Safety Protection app of South Korea and Health Code app of China are representative technology for examining the relationship between the effectiveness of mandatory centralized contract tracing apps and user stress. Based on the coping theory (Beaudry and Pinsonneault 2005; Lazarus and Folkman 1984) , this study proposes a structural equation model that shows the relationships between contact tracing app users'' stress and how they accept such stress through a process called challenge appraisal. To test the research hypotheses derived from the proposed structural equation model, survey data were collected from the users of Health Code, which is the mandatory and centralized contact tracing app with the largest user base. Figure 1 shows the relationships among accuracy and privacy concerns as factors affecting stress, challenge appraisal, emotion-focused coping behavior, and infusion as a structural equations model. doi = 10.1007/s11628-020-00424-7 id = cord-191351-3wu62bao author = Kaptchuk, Gabriel title = How good is good enough for COVID19 apps?

Thus, we examine not only the societal-level, public health benefit of infection rate reduction, but also how app accuracy and app privacy, risk of the app exposing information collected by the app to others, influence reported willingness to adopt a COVID19 app. doi = nan id = cord-028427-gtdmqi6l author = Lehman, Blair title = Use of Adaptive Feedback in an App for English Language Spontaneous Speech date = 2020-06-09 keywords = Report; app; feedback summary = However, most of these apps target the first stages of learning a new language and are limited in the type of feedback that can be provided to users'' spontaneous spoken responses. The English Language Artificial Intelligence (ELAi) app was developed to address this gap by providing users with a variety of prompts for spontaneous speech and adaptive, targeted feedback based on the automatic evaluation of spoken responses. The ELAi app was developed to provide an easily accessible resource for English language learners at an intermediate or advanced level, with the goal of attending university in an English-speaking country, to practice spontaneous speech and receive feedback. The ELAi app was developed to provide an easily accessible English language learning app for users that want to receive detailed feedback about their speaking skills during spontaneous speech. doi = 10.1007/978-3-030-52237-7_25 id = cord-173774-idj19hd3 author = Li, Jinfeng title = COVID-19 Contact-tracing Apps: a Survey on the Global Deployment and Challenges date = 2020-05-07 keywords = App; COVID-19 summary = There is an ongoing debate on the deployment of the Apps regarding their technology framework, i.e. centralised [3, 4] versus decentralised [5, 6] , and their corresponding sensor technologies, i.e. the Global Positioning System (GPS) integrated with Quick Response (QR) codes scanning [7, 8] and big data analysis [9,10], versus the wireless Bluetooth devices [11] enabled by microwave [12, 13] and millimetre-wave [14] [15] [16] [17] communications.

As shown in Fig.4 , there are no cases of the number of infectors less than 32.5 persons in the result of the usage rate of the app (p 1 app = 20%). doi = nan id = cord-323766-oyyj35bl author = Parker, Michael J title = Ethics of instantaneous contact tracing using mobile phone apps in the control of the COVID-19 pandemic date = 2020-05-04 keywords = COVID-19; app; contact summary = In this paper, our aim is to set out a number of ethical considerations relevant to the use of mobile phone apps to enable rapid contact tracing. Any consideration of the ethical questions arising in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic has to place great importance on the moral significance of its international spread and the massive scale ii The effectiveness and reach of any implementation of the app in democratic societies will inevitably be affected by varying configurations of state-citizen relationships, as well as by the roles of civil society groups and non-governmental actors. In this paper, we have set out a number of pressing ethical questions raised by the proposed use of a mobile phone app, the collection of proximity data for the control of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the safe emergence of populations from government-imposed lockdowns. doi = 10.1136/medethics-2020-106314 id = cord-013249-08t7incb author = Pförringer, Dominik title = Digitalisierung in Orthopädie und Unfallchirurgie: Stand 2020 in Klinik und Praxis date = 2020-10-16 keywords = App; der; die; und summary = Die Vorzüge eines angemessenen Einsatzes von Apps im Bereich der Orthopädie und Unfallchirurgie (OU) sind jedoch unbestreitbar und könnten ein enormes Potenzial für die Bewältigung zukünftiger Herausforderungen im Gesundheitswesen darstellen [16] .

The results expected from the implementation of the ICOPE App would be i) to support primary care, and indirectly create a long-term clinical and research partnership; ii) for the older patients, to better identify those at risk of developing frailty and adverse health consequences, and to be able to make reasoned decisions in clinical routine ; and iii) for the health system, to invest in tools likely to prevent decline in intrinsic capacity and maintain function late in life. doi = 10.14283/jfa.2020.24 id = cord-035285-dx5bbeqm author = Simmhan, Yogesh title = GoCoronaGo: Privacy Respecting Contact Tracing for COVID-19 Management date = 2020-11-11 keywords = App; Bluetooth; COVID-19; GCG; contact; user summary = This proximity data of all app users are used to build a temporal contact graph, where vertices are devices, and edges indicate proximity between devices for a certain time period and with a certain Bluetooth signal strength. The use of the GCG App within an institutional setting, with data collection and usage governed by the organization, may lead to higher adoption of the app and enhance its effectiveness in contact tracing. The use of GCG is strictly voluntary, and there is an additional consent required by a user who is infected with COVID-19 before their data can be used for contact tracing-this, despite their data already being available centrally in the backend. Besides tracking Bluetooth contact data, the GCG App offers several features to inform the users about COVID-19 and engage them in preventing its spread. doi = 10.1007/s41745-020-00201-5 id = cord-322812-9u3ptqjs author = Wells, Philippa M. title = Estimates of the rate of infection and asymptomatic COVID-19 disease in a population sample from SE England date = 2020-10-15 keywords = App; COVID-19; SARS summary = METHODS: We undertook enzyme linked immunosorbent assay characterisation of IgM and IgG responses against SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein and nucleocapsid protein of 431 unselected general-population participants of the TwinsUK cohort from South-East England, aged 19-86 (median age 48; 85% female). 382 participants completed prospective logging of 14 COVID-19 related symptoms via the COVID Symptom Study App, allowing consideration of serology alongside individual symptoms, and a predictive algorithm for estimated COVID-19 previously modelled on PCR positive individuals from a dataset of over 2 million. We undertook a population-based study of the humoral immune response to SARS-CoV-2, with regards to longitudinal clinical symptoms collected through a mobile phone app in a population-based sample of 431 TwinsUK volunteers. For three months prior to the visit, the majority of participants had completed regular logging of symptoms, via the C-19 Covid Symptom Study app 5 , enabling measurement of antibody response to COVID-19 with regards to clinical symptoms. doi = 10.1016/j.jinf.2020.10.011 id = cord-354678-tlba8flz author = Westgard, Christopher title = The Use of Implementation Science Tools to Design, Implement, and Monitor a Community-Based mHealth Intervention for Child Health in the Amazon date = 2020-08-19 keywords = App; CHA; chest; implementation summary = Implementation science proposes various theories, models, and frameworks (called tools henceforth) that can be used to improve diffusion of evidence-based interventions, adapt innovations to local contexts, better understand the implementation setting, and evaluate the implementation process (2, (15) (16) (17) (18) . The current study utilizes an implementation science tool to systematically design, implement, monitor, adapt, and report on a community-based mHealth intervention for child health. Before going to the field to prepare the local actors, the implementation team was trained on the use of the CHEST App, how to coach the CHAs, how to conduct an effective home visit with the tool, and how to identify and report challenges experienced by the CHAs. The CHEST App was developed throughout the 6 months of the installation phase. doi = 10.3389/fpubh.2020.00411 id = cord-318279-byophdo2 author = Zahid, Talal title = Comparison of Effectiveness of Mobile App versus Conventional Educational Lectures on Oral Hygiene Knowledge and Behavior of High School Students in Saudi Arabia date = 2020-10-13 keywords = app; health; oral summary = title: Comparison of Effectiveness of Mobile App versus Conventional Educational Lectures on Oral Hygiene Knowledge and Behavior of High School Students in Saudi Arabia OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of two different oral health education approaches, a mobile application (the Brush DJ app) and conventional educational lectures, on the oral hygiene knowledge and behavior of high school children. This study aimed to assess and compare the impact of two different approaches of oral health education, mobile application and educational lecture, on the oral hygiene knowledge and behavior of high school children. Analysis of baseline and follow-up data revealed that the knowledge and attitude of participants towards oral health improved significantly in both groups for almost all aspects except for the frequency of tooth brushing in the app group [see Table 3 ]. The use of both the mobile app and educational lecture significantly improved oral health knowledge, attitude and practices among study participants. doi = 10.2147/ppa.s270215
