As a result of the significant disruption that is being caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we are very aware that many researchers will have difficulty in meeting the timelines associated with our peer review process during normal times. Please do let us know if you need additional time. Our systems will continue to remind you of the original timelines but we intend to be highly flexible at this time.
Announcement: COVID-19 impact on peer-review
Featured article: Smartphone-application to attempt to improve patient adherence to cardiac rehabilitation:
Monitoring adherence to interventions is a challenge across all health disciplines. This well-designed single-blinded, pragmatic randomized controlled trial will attempt to increase long-term adherence of patients to a cardiac rehabilitation program through a smartphone application. Novel technology-based follow-ups may assist patients to continue/develop home-based exercise routines and healthy habits. As chosen by Associate Editor Danilo De Oliveira Silva.
