Age modifies the association between depressive symptoms and adherence to self-testing with telemedicine in patients with inflammatory bowel disease.
This study researched the association between age and increased depressive symptoms and adherence to self-testing with telemedicine in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). It was found that patients 40 and older had worse adherence than patients younger than 40 with depressive symptoms.

Feasibility and acceptability of real-time antiretroviral adherence monitoring among depressed women living with HIV in the deep south of the US.
The purpose of this study was to present feasibility and acceptability data on the use of an electronic adherence monitor (EAM) among African American women in remote areas of the Southeastern United States with HIV and co-occurring depression. EAM and self-reported antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence was monitored among 25 participants recruited at four HIV clinics in Alabama. Intra-class correlation showed a low degree of concordance between EAM and self-reported adherence. 83% of data collected via EAM was transmitted in real-time; the remainder was delayed though technological failures or was lost entirely. The authors conclude that EAM monitoring is feasible in a rural US setting but that technological difficulties may impede the device's usefulness for just-in-time adherence interventions.
