The digital healthcare industry offers personalized care, expanded access, and improved efficiency. Despite its potential, adoption rates vary across sectors due to different motivations barriers. This chapter explores these factors, providing insights from empirical research, surveys, case studies. Key motivators include convenience, cost-effectiveness, the potential for care. Data privacy, technological illiteracy, regulatory limitations are major hurdles. A nuanced discussion how barriers interact, particularly concerning broader sectional goals. findings suggest that although holds transformative change multiple sectors, targeted strategies essential overcoming prevent full-scale adoption. Addressing issues is vital not only growth of but also enhancing global outcomes.

The study examines the relationship between air quality, meteorological factors, and COVID-19 cases in Cheras, Kuala Lumpur, Kelapa Gading, North Jakarta. Analyzing data from 2020 2021, research found notable correlations: Cheras were positively associated with relative humidity (RH) carbon monoxide (CO) but negatively ozone (O₃) RH different years. In correlated pollutants like sulfur dioxide (SO₂) CO, while ambient temperature (AT) showed a negative correlation. enforcement of social restrictions notably reduced pollution, affecting spread. Predictive models for PM2.5 levels using robust regression techniques strong performance Lumpur (R² > 0.9) exhibited overfitting tendencies Jakarta, suggesting need longer period more accurate results.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is significantly transforming dermatology, particularly in early skin cancer detection and diagnosis. This technological advancement addresses a crucial public health issue by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, efficiency, accessibility. AI integration medical imaging procedures offers promising solutions to the limitations of traditional methods, which often rely on subjective clinical evaluations histopathological analyses. study systematically reviews current applications classification, providing comprehensive overview their advantages, challenges, methodologies, functionalities. In this study, we conducted analysis artificial intelligence classification cancer. We evaluated publications from three prominent journal databases: Scopus, IEEE, MDPI. thorough selection process using PRISMA guidelines, collecting 1,156 scientific articles. Our methodology included evaluating titles abstracts thoroughly examining full text determine relevance quality. Consequently, total 95 final study. analyzed categorized articles based four key dimensions: difficulties, AI-based models exhibit remarkable performance leveraging advanced deep learning algorithms, image processing techniques, feature extraction methods. The advantages include improved faster turnaround times, increased accessibility dermatological expertise, benefiting underserved areas. However, several challenges remain, such as concerns over data privacy, complexities integrating systems into existing workflows, need for large, high-quality datasets. methods detection, including CNNs, SVMs, ensemble aim improve lesion accuracy increase detection. enhance healthcare enabling remote consultations, continuous patient monitoring, supporting decision-making, leading more efficient care better outcomes. review highlights transformative potential While technologies have accessibility, remain. Future research should focus ensuring developing robust that can generalize across diverse populations, creating Integrating tools workflows critical maximizing utility effectiveness. Continuous innovation interdisciplinary collaboration will be essential fully realizing benefits
