“…5.9. Performance bias and model equity Disparities in both access to and outcomes from utilizing digital health solutions and biotechnologies manifest a variety of identity dimensions, including economic status, social background, ethnicity, and gender (Lanier et al 2022). As described by Braveman (2014), health equity means, 'Kstriving for the highest possible standard of health for all people and giving special attention to the needs of those at greatest risk of poor health, based on social conditions.'…”

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a prevalent cardiac arrhythmia associated with significant health ramifications, including an elevated susceptibility to ischemic stroke, heart disease, and heightened mortality. Photoplethysmography (PPG) has emerged as a promising technology for continuous AF monitoring for its cost-effectiveness and widespread integration into wearable devices. Our team previously conducted an exhaustive review on PPG-based AF detection before June 2019. However, since then, more advanced technologies have emerged in this field. This paper offers a comprehensive review of the latest advancements in PPG-based AF detection, utilizing digital health and artificial intelligence (AI) solutions, within the timeframe spanning from July 2019 to December 2022. Through extensive exploration of scientific databases, we have identified 57 pertinent studies. Our comprehensive review encompasses an in-depth assessment of the statistical methodologies, traditional machine learning techniques, and deep learning approaches employed in these studies. In addition, we address the challenges encountered in the domain of PPG-based AF detection. Furthermore, we maintain a dedicated website to curate the latest research in this area, with regular updates on a regular basis.

“…Health equity courses have been implemented at the graduate level at the University of Texas Austin (Lanier et al, 2022), senior undergraduates and early graduate students at Rutgers University (Riley, 2022), and health equity-focused machine learning algorithms introduced into introductory biomedical engineering courses at John's Hopkins University (Storm et al, 2022). Further, systems approaches to health equity are critical components of human factors and systems engineering (Roscoe et al, 2019).…”

This research explored the beliefs related to the health disparities, systems, and innovation of honors/engineering students enrolled in a course on Health Equity. This course aims to bring together undergraduate students across disciplines from engineering, public health, pharmacy, anthropology, sociology, and other social and basic sciences to learn from each other through co-designing solutions to address health disparities. The Global Learning Short Scale Plus (G.L.S 2+ ) was used to assess students' beliefs related to global self awareness, cultural diversity, personal and social responsibility, understanding global systems, and applying knowledge to the contemporary global context. Qualitative and quantitative analyses showed Personal and Social Responsibility was a predominant factor influencing students' beliefs. Numerous experiences were identified as drivers of involvement or action with an interest in the global systems' factors.
