State-of-the-art and future directions in multilevel interventions across the cancer control continuum.
We conducted literature searches and analyses to describe the current state of multilevel intervention (MLI) research and to identify opportunities to advance cancer control and prevention. We found single-level studies that considered other contextually important levels, and multilevel health-care systems research and community-wide studies. This literature is characterized by limited reportin...
متن کاملTime issues in multilevel interventions for cancer treatment and prevention.
The concept of time introduces important complexities in estimating intervention effects, program and evaluation design, and measurement and analysis of individual change in multilevel interventions (MLIs). Despite growing recognition that time is a critical element for assessing both individual-level outcomes and higher-level changes in organizational, community, and policy contexts, most MLI ...
متن کاملComputational Modeling and Analysis of Therapeutical Interventions for Depression
Depressions impose a huge burden on both the patient suffering from a depression as well as society in general. In order to make interventions for a depressed patient during a therapy more personalized and effective, a supporting personal software agent can be useful. Such an agent should then have a good idea of the current state of the person. A computational model for human mood regulation a...
متن کاملA multilevel approach to cancer growth modeling.
Cancer growth models may be divided into macroscopic models, which describe the tumor as a single entity, and microscopic ones, which consider the tumor as a complex system whose behavior emerges from the local dynamics of its basic components, the neoplastic cells. Mesoscopic models (e.g. as based on the Local Interaction Simulation Approach [Delsanto, P.P., Mignogna, R., Scalerandi, M., Schec...
متن کاملConceptual Relevance of Time in Multilevel Cancer Interventions
The concept of time introduces important complexities in designing and evaluating programs, measuring and analyzing individual changes, and estimating intervention effects in multilevel interventions (MLIs). For example, investigators may focus on time to address whether interventions are more effective in early stages of implementation or whether their effects attenuate over time. Assessing ho...
