Abstract
This scoping review systematizes the current research related to the use of both blockchain and machine learning techniques in medical imaging applications. A systematic electronic search was performed, and twenty-five studies were included in the review. These studies aimed to use blockchain and machine learning techniques to provide (i) efficient security mechanisms to support the communication of medical imaging data, (ii) aggregation of distributed medical imaging data to train machine learning algorithms, and (iii) machine learning algorithms based on federated learning strategies. Among the ten machine learning techniques identified in the included studies, Convolutional Neural Network was the most representative (i.e., 44% of the studies). Moreover, Artificial Neural Network, Capsule Network, Deep Neural Network, Gated Recurrent Units, and Neural Network were machine learning techniques used by more than one study. Although the included studies developed algorithms with potential impact in clinical practice, it must be noted that they did not discuss the generalizability of their algorithms in real-world clinical conditions.

Abstract
The scoping review reported by this paper aimed to analyze and synthesize state-of-the-art studies focused on the application of machine learning methods to enhance the cyber resilience of cyber-physical systems. An electronic search was conducted, and 24 studies were included in this review after the selection process. The most representative application domains were computer networks and power systems, while in terms of cyber resilience functions, risk identification, risk mitigation or protection, and detection of anomalous situations were the most implemented functions. Moreover, the results of this scoping review show that the interest in the topic of cyber resilience and machine learning is quite recent, which justifies the heterogeneity of the included studies in terms of machine learning methods and datasets being used for the experimental validations, as well as in terms of outcomes being measured. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2024.

Abstract
This article aimed to analyse state-of-the-art empirical evidence of randomized controlled trials designed to assess preventive cognitive training interventions based on virtual reality for older adults without cognitive impairment, by identifying virtual reality setups and tasks, clinical outcomes and respective measurement instruments, and positive effects on outcome parameters. A systematic electronic search was performed, and six randomized controlled trials were included in the systematic review. In terms of results, the included studies pointed to significant positive impact of virtual reality-based cognitive training interventions on global cognition, memory, attention, information processing speed, walking variability, balance, muscle strength, and falls. However, further research is required to evaluate the adequacy of the virtual reality setups and tasks, to study the impact of the interventions’ duration and intensity, to understand how to tailor the interventions to the characteristics and needs of the individuals, and to compare face-to-face to remote interventions. © 2024 by SCITEPRESS – Science and Technology Publications, Lda.

Abstract
The scoping review reported by this article aimed to analyse how security and privacy mechanism are being integrated with Fast Health Interoperability Resources (FHIR). An electronic search was conducted, and 37 studies were included in the review. The results show that 19 studies (i.e., more than half of the included studies) reported on the use of blockchain technology to (i) assure secure data sharing, (ii) provide secure Personal Health Records, (iii) support authentication and auditing mechanisms, (iv) support smart legal contracts, and (v) monitor the access to clinical data. The remainder 18 articles reported on the implementation of security and privacy mechanisms related to (i) data security at transmission, (ii) data security at storage, (iii) access control; (iv) data anonymization, and (v) management of informed consents. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

Cyber Resilience and Smart Cities, a Scoping Review

Publicação
Iberian Conference on Information Systems and Technologies, CISTI

Abstract
The scoping review reported by this article aimed to analyze and synthesize state-of-the-art studies focused on the integration of cyber resilience in the implementation of smart cities. An electronic search was conducted, and 11 studies were included in this review after the selection process. According to the findings, cyber resilience represents a gap of the current research related to smart cities and, therefore, additional efforts are required to guarantee that smart cities are resilient to challenging events such as cyber-attacks or natural disasters. © 2023 ITMA.
