Health CyberMap Outils et services web de qualités pour journalistes, blogueurs - NewsRessources | Outils et services web de qualités pour journalistes, blogueurs – NewsRessources News Resources est un projet collaboratif à destination des journalistes et blogueurs. Il est la conséquence d’un modeste Google Doc mis en ligne à l’automne 2010. L’idée était de lister les outils web utiles pour un journaliste. Ils partirent dix, et revinrent 100… Le “succès” de ce document m’épate toujours, avec régulièrement plusieurs dizaines de personnes qui viennent le consulter et, parfois, l’annoter. Du coup, pour aller plus loin, après mûres réflexions et multes discussions, News Resources est apparu comme un projet intéressant. Son principe reprend celui du Google doc : proposer des sites, des outils et des bonnes pratiques pour aider les journalistes, les blogueurs, et peut être à terme toutes les professions qui publient sur internet, à trouver l’outil qui va bien. Vous êtes les bienvenus pour y participer, tout comme dans le Google Doc qui reste bien sûr ouvert. Par ailleurs nous avons lancé la communauté des “Journalistes qui tâtent un peu des outils modernes”.
Obesity data visualisation :: National Obesity Observatory Local Authority Adult Excess Weight Prevalence Data New data are now available for prevalence of excess weight (overweight including obesity, BMI ≥25kg/m2) in adults (age 16 and over) at local authority level. These data are an indicator in the Public Health Outcomes Framework (PHOF) Health Improvement domain. We have also produced a set of supporting indicators for adult underweight, healthy weight, overweight, and obesity prevalence.

How Drunk Can You Get At Your Office X-Mas Party? It’s office-party season, which means, time to get your dranky-drank on!! But wait! You don’t want to get so sloshed you end up doinking your secretary and accidentally running a lawnmower over someone’s foot. This stuff happens! Okay, maybe just on TV. Still. Note what’s going on here: If you’re relatively low in the org chart, the idea is that you shouldn’t be drinking too much because that’ll draw disapproval from most everyone. Skilled labor--i.e., your IT department--can tip it back a little more aggressively since they have so few people to report to. Note also the helpful distinction between standards for cool companies (startups, design studios, Fast Company) and uncool companies (law firms, insurance agencies, banks, banks, banks).

Healthymagination Breast Cancer Conversation Project Launch We’ve partnered with Healthymagination to develop a tool that aggregates Tweets about a long-standing public health issue: breast cancer. Twitter is a remarkable tool for enhancing social consciousness. However, Tweets are often limited to Tweeters’ network, just a sliver of the social media community. Through the aggregation of tweets, this project expands the scope of public awareness exponentially. We’ve made it possible for visitors to insert themselves in an international conversation. Analyzing top words focuses the visitor’s attention on the specific topics that are dominating the discussion. When someone tweets something new they’ve just learned about breast cancer; when someone excitedly posts about their participating in a breast cancer 5K; when someone is diagnosed or is undergoing treatment and tweets out of frustration or inspiration — our data visualization captures it all, putting faces (or twitter handles) to statistics. Explore the Breast Cancer Conversation.
Active People :: National Obesity Observatory The Active People Survey is a large telephone survey of sport and active recreation, commissioned by Sport England. The survey measures participation in sport and active recreation, and provides details of how participation varies from place to place and between different groups in the population. The survey also measures other sport-related issues such as volunteering; club membership; tuition or coaching; and overall satisfaction with levels of sporting provision in the local community. The survey began in October 2005, and is repeated annually. These are new APS data from APS6 Quarter 2 to APS7 Quarter 1, January 2012 - January 2013. Please note that it is not possible to compare this new APS data with previous APS data due to differences in methodology. The activities included are: sport, recreational cycling, recreational walking, walking for active travel purposes, cycling for active travel purposes, dance and gardening. Frequently asked questions (new data from the APS)
Is The HPV Vaccine Safe? Remember a couple years ago when there was a big kick-off about the safety of the HPV (Human Papillomavirus) Vaccine? The virus causes 99.7% of all cases of cervical cancer – the second deadliest for women, after breast cancer. But some concern sprang up around the safety of the jab. This was inflamed by the fact that it’s most effective when given to girls aged 12-13. We did a graphic at the time to show the chances of a nasty or fatal outcome were miniscule (you had more chance being struck by lightning). This week we noticed, via Dr Jen Gunter’s site, that detailed new data has appeared on the vaccine and its safety. Inevitably, I’ve graphickised® the essence for easy injection into your mind. As ever, all our data, sources and calculations: There’s that data link if you want to check our sources: I’m refreshing and redesigning a selection of our diagrams over the next week.
Vendredi c’est Graphism! S02E38 Au programme cette semaine, du HTML5, de la typographie, de la visualisation de données, une interface tactile, une autre musicale, un visualiseur de skin Minecraft, la sortie du dernier Ubuntu et un wtf html très étrange ! Hello à vous les curieux ! J’espère que vous avez passé une bonne semaine, que vous vous êtes bien remis du numéro un peu triste de vendredi dernier, bref aujourd’hui on tourne la page avec ce numéro de “Vendredi c’est Graphism” spécial… html et notamment html5 ! En effet, l’actualité est riche cette semaine et vous le savez peut-être, j’ai pas mal travaillé avec Mozilla, fervent défenseur des technologies web, libres et ouvertes… Hier, je me suis dis qu’il était donc temps de faire un numéro spécial HTML5 ! :-) Alors j’arrête tout de suite les puristes, je ne parlerai pas uniquement de créations réalisées avec HTML5, mais également de projets utilisant les technologies html modernes (par là pour savoir de quoi je parle). Bon vendredi…et bon “Graphism” ! Geoffrey source

Top 20 Medical Records Software A new infographic design from InfoNewt for Capterra. Top 20 Most Popular EMR (Electronic Medical Records) Software Solutions shows the results of comparing Capterra’s Popularity calculations in the EMR software category. As the deadline for implementation in the U.S. draws near, talk of electronic medical records (EMR) and electronic health records (EHR) software is a hot topic at the doctor’s office lately. These systems assist medical practitioners in the creation, storage, and organization of electronic medical records, including patient charts, electronic prescriptions, lab orders, and evaluations (just to name a few common features). While the terms “EMR” and “EHR” are often used interchangeably, EMR solutions allow for patient information to be shared within one health care organization, whereas EHR solutions allow for health-related records to be shared across multiple organizations. Thanks to the team at Capterra for being great to work with!
