Assessing the Readability and Quality of Web-Based Resources on Exercise Stress Testing: Cross-Sectional Readability and Quality Analysis

Assessing the Readability and Quality of Web-Based Resources on Exercise Stress Testing: Cross-Sectional Readability and Quality Analysis

Each search term was queried in two search engines, yielding a total of 80 websites. Of these, 62 were textbook chapters, duplicates, advertisement links, journal publications, or outside the scope of exercise stress testing. These results were subsequently excluded, and the remaining 18 websites were evaluated. Our screening process for the websites included in our evaluation is depicted in Figure 1. The websites were categorized into two groups: academic (n=7) and nonacademic (n=11).

The Digital Availability of US Departments of Corrections’ Research Policies: Cross-Sectional Analysis

The Digital Availability of US Departments of Corrections’ Research Policies: Cross-Sectional Analysis

We evaluated the accessibility of research-related information on publicly available websites of state DOCs. We iteratively developed an 8-point rubric for evaluating the digital imprint and internet-accessible completeness of each state’s DOC’s research policies. Two research team members (JM-K and DM) independently located DOC-based websites (June-August 2023). If the state had a website, the research team sought the presence of a DOC-based research web page.

Development of an Educational Website for Patients With Cancer and Preexisting Autoimmune Diseases Considering Immune Checkpoint Blockers: Usability and Acceptability Study

Development of an Educational Website for Patients With Cancer and Preexisting Autoimmune Diseases Considering Immune Checkpoint Blockers: Usability and Acceptability Study

We found that most patients preferred educational materials in multiple formats (eg, video, audio, graphics, and text), suggesting that websites or smartphone apps would be the most convenient delivery channels [11]. Clinicians also agreed that the optimal delivery of health information should include multiple formats; however, crucial requirements identified by providers were accuracy, simplicity, and standardized information (as opposed to individualized or nonlinear information) [12].

Internet Search Activity for Intentional Self-Harm Forums After a High-Profile News Publication: Interrupted Time Series Analysis

“Pro-suicide” websites are those that promote or facilitate suicide, including advocating for an individual’s “right” to end their own life, creating communities of individuals who desire to end their own lives, as well as sharing explicit information on means of killing oneself [5,6]. These sites provide largely unmoderated forums for discussion of suicide, which may encourage, promote, or facilitate suicide.

Using a Human-Centered Design Process to Evaluate and Optimize User Experience of a Website (InPACT at Home) to Promote Youth Physical Activity: Case Study

These websites also provided limited social support and educational content [18]. Families play a crucial role in shaping a child’s activity levels by providing various forms of social support [19,20]. This support includes encouragement, participating in activities together, and observing a family member’s involvement in physical activities or sports.

Where Do I Go When My Doctor’s Office Is Closed? The Availability of Out-of-Hours Care Information on Primary Care Practitioners’ Websites

Where Do I Go When My Doctor’s Office Is Closed? The Availability of Out-of-Hours Care Information on Primary Care Practitioners’ Websites

In light of this, this study turns to the often overlooked medium of primary care practitioner (PCP) websites to promote this service. While these websites may have previously functioned as little more than “electronic nameplates” [2], as the use of primary care online services, such as online appointment booking, continues to grow, so too does their potential to promote and reinforce beneficial health-seeking behaviors through the provision of information.
