TL;DR:

TL;DR: The Global Alliance for Chronic Disease Hypertension Program (GAHDHP) as discussed by the authors created an innovative network of researchers to facilitate collaboration, learning, and opportunities for growth for researchers, which included at times "too many" opportunities, which took away from core research.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify salient beliefs about walking three times a week for 30 minutes nonstop among patients with hypertension in a low-resource setting and measure the relationships among intentions, attitudes, perceived social pressure and perceived behavioral control about this behavior.

TL;DR: A systematic review of the literature on financial incentives that promote healthy lifestyle behaviours or improve health profiles is presented in this article. But the authors focus on the methodological approach to define the incentive intervention and its delivery, and only one study reported the background and rationale followed to develop the incentive and conducted a focus group to understand what sort of incentives would be acceptable for their study population.

TL;DR: Improving engagement with the app and gathering preliminary health profile data will help to identify accessibility and usability issues and other barriers to app and study engagement prior to moving to a larger study.
