Background Digital health has become an advancing phenomenon in the health care systems of modern societies. Over the past two decades, various digital health options, technologies, and innovations have been introduced; many of them are still being investigated and evaluated by researchers all around the globe. However, the actual trends and visibility of peer-reviewed publications using “digital health” as a keyword to reflect the topic, published by major relevant journals, still remain to be quantified. Objective This study aimed to conduct a bibliographic-bibliometric analysis on articles published in JMIR Publications journals that used “digital health” as a keyword. We evaluated the trends, topics, and citations of these research publications to identify the important share and contribution of JMIR Publications journals in publishing articles on digital health. Methods All JMIR Publications journals were searched to find articles in English, published between January 2000 and August 2019, in which the authors focused on, utilized, or discussed digital health in their study and used “digital health” as a keyword. In addition, a bibliographic-bibliometric analysis was conducted using the freely available Profiles Research Networking Software by the Harvard Clinical and Translational Science Center. Results Out of 1797 articles having “digital health” as a keyword, published mostly between 2016 and 2019, 277 articles (32.3%) were published by JMIR Publications journals, mainly in the Journal of Medical Internet Research. The most frequently used keyword for the topic was “mHealth.” The average number of times an article had been cited, including self-citations, was above 2.8. Conclusions The reflection of “digital health” as a keyword in JMIR Publications journals has increased noticeably over the past few years. To maintain this momentum, more regular bibliographic and bibliometric analyses will be needed. This would encourage authors to consider publishing their articles in relevant, high-visibility journals and help these journals expand their supportive publication policies and become more inclusive of digital health.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: To outline 4 categories of ethics needs identified at a translational science center. To map how research ethics has been further integrated into the center’s culture in response to these needs. To provide insights into how research ethics can be integrated into the translational team science environment. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: The Institute for Translational Sciences (ITS) at the University of Texas Medical Branch is studied on an organizational level using polyphonic organizational theory and the results of an ethics needs assessment completed in 2010. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: The results will be a map indicating how research ethics has been further integrated into the culture of the ITS in response to the needs identified to ensure the responsible practice of translational science. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Successful translational science requires shared understanding of communication and values. Achieving agreement in these areas requires the development of strategies for communicating and reinforcing common goals. Research ethics has often been considered an “add on” rather than a “part of” science. Through integrating ethics into various aspects of translational science, the ITS has taken important steps toward achieving the goal of culture change. The map of how the ITS has integrated ethics into organizational activities and structures will serve as a model for other organizations and institutions.

Outside The Box

Including patient stakeholders as active members of the research team is essential to a patient-engaged research design. To hire community-based research staff for a study comparing the effectiveness of diabetes self-management programs for Latinos, we had to provide phlebotomy training which was not allowed under the fiscal guidelines of our funders. By collaborating with partners at the Clinical and Translational Science Center, we were not only able to find a creative solution and provide phlebotomy training to our research staff but the process of creating the training also contributed to improved infrastructure for patient-engaged research at our institution.

Thermochemical Stability

New ceramic fibers, currently in various stages of commercial development, have been consolidated in intermetallic matrices such as γ-TiAl and FeAl. Fiber types include SiC, TiB2 and polycrystalline and single crystal Al2O3. This work required the development of techniques to characterize the thermochemical stability of these fibers in different matrices.SEM/EDS elemental mapping was used for this work. To obtain qualitative compositional/spatial information, the best realistically achievable counting statistics were required. We established that 128 × 128 maps, acquired with a 20 KeV accelerating voltage, 3 sec. live time per pixel (total mapping time, 18 h) and with beam current adjusted to give 30% dead time, provided adequate image quality at a magnification of 800X. The maps were acquired, with backgrounds subtracted, using a Noran TN 5500 EDS system. The images and maps were transferred to a Macintosh and converted into TIFF files using either TIFF Maker, or TNtolMAGE, a Microsoft QuickBASIC program developed at the Science Center. From TIFF files, images and maps were opened in either NIH Image or Adobe Photoshop for processing and analysis and printed from Microsoft Powerpoint on a Kodak XL7700 dye transfer image printer.
