Wearables can generate a solid database for global health research, particularly for morbidity measurements, large-scale studies, and modeling and descriptive studies.
“Wearables can generate a solid database for global health research, particularly for morbidity measurements [235], large-scale studies, and modeling and descriptive studies.”
From The impact of wearable technologies in health research: scoping review (2022) · cites this paper as [235]
Research infrastructures supporting health research in sub-Saharan Africa, especially health and demographic surveillance systems (HDSSs), are not equipped to investigate many of the most pressing climate change and health research needs.
“Furthermore, our research may be able to bridge the gap in the current lack of evidence since oftentimes research infrastructures supporting health research in SSA, especially in health and demographic surveillance systems (HDSSs), are not equipped to investigate many of the most pressing climate change and health research needs [65].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
