Chan A, De Simoni A, Wileman V, Holliday L, Newby CJ, Chisari C, Ali S, Zhu N, Padakanti P, Pinprachanan V, Ting V, Griffiths CJ.	"Pooled results showed that patients receiving digital interventions may have increased adherence (mean difference of 14.66 percentage points, 95% confidence interval (CI) 7.74 to 21.57; low‐certainty evidence); this is likely to be clinically significant in those with poor baseline medication adherence."	Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2022 Jun 13;6(6):CD013030. doi: 10.1002/14651858.CD013030.pub2. PMID: 35691614; PMCID: PMC9188849.

"Understanding the actual effectiveness of the specific drugs in real-life patients is a crucial part of tailoring the right drugs to the right patients."	Eur Respir Rev. 2022 Jun 7;31(164):210278. doi: 10.1183/16000617.0278-2021. PMID: 35675922.

"it is critical for experts in the field to develop a widely accepted and rigorously validated consensus definition of clinical remission in severe asthma in the near future. Nevertheless, in the absence of such a validated consensus definition, we believe that post hoc analyses of prior clinical trials in severe asthma will help to advance the notion of clinical remission by stimulating conversations about remission among experts in the field."

We selected studies that included some human data other than routinely collected in primary care and used at least one machine learning algorithm."	J Asthma Allergy. 2022 Jun 29; 15:855-873. doi: 10.2147/JAA.S285742. PMID: 35791395; PMCID: PMC9250768.
