- Abstract
• Persons with MS use mHealth apps to self-manage their MS and to communicate with their care teams. • Apps with simple user experiences allow efficient health data tracking which can be completed anywhere. • Tracking features should accommodate individual experiences and context, generally through the categories available for tracking in the app. • Common technical issues deal with syncing and saving data, the registration process, or logging into apps. Mobile health applications (apps) are promising condition self-management tools for people living with multiple sclerosis (MS). However, most existing apps do not include health tracking features. This gap has been raised as a priority research topic, but the development of new self-management apps will require designers to understand the context and needs of those living with MS. Our aim was to conduct a content analysis of publicly available user reviews of existing MS self-management apps to understand desired features and guide the design of future apps. We systematically reviewed MS self-management apps which were publicly available in English on the Google Play and iOS app stores. We then conducted sentiment and content analysis of recent user reviews which referenced health tracking and data visualization to understand self-reported experiences and feedback. Searches identified 75 unique apps, of which six met eligibility criteria and had reviews. One hundred and thirty-seven user reviews of these apps were eligible, though most were associated with a single app (n=108). Overall, ratings and sentiment scores skewed highly positive (Median [IQR]: Ratings – 5 [4-5], Sentiment scores – 0.70 [0.44-0.86]), though scores of individual apps varied. Content analysis revealed five themes: reasons for app usage, simple user experience, customization and flexibility, feature requests, and technical issues. Reviewers suggested that app customization, interconnectivity, and consolidated access to desired features should be considered in the design of future apps. User ratings weakly correlated with review sentiment scores (ρ = 0.27 [0.11-0.42]). Self-tracking options in MS apps are currently limited, though the apps that offer these functions are considered useful by individuals with MS. Additional qualitative research is required to understand how specific app features and opportunities for personalization should be incorporated into new self-management tools for this population.

4. Individual Differences Predict Patterns in Spontaneous Involuntary Musical Imagery

- Abstract
Involuntary musical imagery (INMI) describes the everyday phenomenon of having a tune stuck in the head. Research has established the ubiquity of this form of spontaneous cognition but the predictive role of individual differences is still debated. This study examines the impact of everyday musical behaviors and subclinical obsessive compulsive attributes on INMI experiences. In total 1,536 participants completed three online questionnaires; a novel inventory of musical behavior and INMI, and a standardized obsessive compulsion (OC) inventory. Exploratory factor analysis (N = 512) and structural equation modelling (N = 1,024) were applied. Everyday singing and music listening positively predict length and frequency of reported INMI episodes, respectively. No relationships were found with musical training. High OC was positively related to INMI frequency and disturbance, but only indirectly to INMI episode length and unpleasantness. The identified contributory factors of INMI experiences are discussed in the context of musical memory and spontaneous mental activity.

Background: Patient accessible electronic health records (PAEHRs) enable patients to access and manage personal clinical information that is made available to them by their health care providers (HCPs). It is thought that the shared management nature of medical record access improves patient outcomes and improves patient satisfaction. However, recent reviews have found that this is not the case. Furthermore, little research has focused on PAEHRs from the HCP viewpoint. HCPs include physicians, nurses, and service providers. Objective: We provide a systematic review of reviews of the impact of giving patients record access from both a patient and HCP point of view. The review covers a broad range of outcome measures, including patient safety, patient satisfaction, privacy and security, self-efficacy, and health outcome. Methods: A systematic search was conducted using Web of Science to identify review articles on the impact of PAEHRs. Our search was limited to English-language reviews published between January 2002 and November 2014. A total of 73 citations were retrieved from a series of Boolean search terms including "review*" with "patient access to records". These reviews went through a novel scoring system analysis whereby we calculated how many positive outcomes were reported per every outcome measure investigated. This provided a way to quantify the impact of PAEHRs. Results: Ten reviews covering chronic patients (eg, diabetes and hypertension) and primary care patients, as well as HCPs were found but eight were included for the analysis of outcome measures. We found mixed outcomes across both patient and HCP groups, with approximately half of the reviews showing positive changes with record access. Patients believe that record access increases their perception of control; however, outcome measures thought to create psychological concerns (such as patient anxiety as a result of seeing their medical record) are still unanswered. Nurses are more likely than physicians to gain time efficiencies by using a PAEHR system with the main concern from physicians being the security of the PAEHRs. Conclusions: This review implements a novel scoring system, which shows there is a lack of rigorous empirical testing that separates the effect of record access from other existing disease management programs. Current research is too targeted within certain clinical groups' needs, and although there are positive signs for the adoption of PAEHRs, there is currently insufficient evidence about the effect of PAEHRs on health outcomes for patients or HCPs.
