The aim of this paper is to analyse how scientific communication journals with greater impact factor on the INRECS index approach health message over the last decade. A total of 1.962 references were reviewed by analyzing publication frequency, authorship, topics, media considered and type of analysis made. It was observed scarcity of studies about health message in communication journals. Most of the articles dealt with public health issues focusing either on specific diseases or on issues that can affect much of the population. Most studies conducted content analysis mainly of press followed by audiovisual content and Internet sparingly; to a lesser extent narrated experiences or reflections. Lines of research are also proposed to continue contributing to progress in this area.

Una década del mensaje sobre la salud en las revistas de comunicación indexadas en IN-RECS (2000-2011)

Des de fa 20 anys, el sector audiovisual viu una important transformacio, tant de l'oferta com del consum, en el marc de la convergencia digital. La convergencia anuncia la coexistencia dels nous mitjans digitals amb l�apogeu d'una cultura participativa, protagonitzada per comunitats d'usuaris amb una activitat quasi frenetica (Jenkins,2008). Noves modalitats de treball cooperatiu que permeten la creacio i recreacio grupal de continguts, i la creacio de comunitats d�usuaris que utilitzen i reutilitzen les noves modalitats de serveis. En aquest context, augmenta la segmentacio, la fragmentacio i l'abonament dels usuaris (Tous, 2009), perque la tipologia de les plataformes de continguts ha variat de manera significativa, s�han incorporat els dispositius mobils i s�han diversificat i sofisticat les ofertes a Internet.

The media, and more specifically, television, are crucial tools for the interpretation and reinterpretation
of social reality. However, not everybody has equal access to media contents.
This is the case of people with disabilities, who have hitherto encountered major barriers in
their access to the media, particularly to television. The introduction of digital television is an
opportunity to incorporate accessibility applications and achieve design for all. This article
presents a study that has been carried out to analyse the current situation of people with
disabilities and their expectations about digital television as an integration element of
accessibility tools. To that end, works have been developed with members of the groups of
people with hearing, visual, physical and intellectual impairment, as well as with elderly
groups. A qualitative methodology of social research has been applied, including
documentary sources tracking, in-depth interviews and focus groups. The results of the
research highlight the inclusion and integration role of television, as well as the risk of
exclusion of the disabled if the necessary measures to generate participation are not taken.

Actitudes y expectativas del colectivo de personas con discapacidad hacia la televisión

This work presents a systematic review, from 2012 to the beginning of 2019, of experiences carried out with people over 65 years old, using Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) with the aim of improving their self-care and health care empowerment for active aging. Most of the analyzed studies are focused on monitoring and assistance of older adults, meanwhile there are a minority of studies focused on rehabilitation. The most used ICT for health care are mobile applications and web services. Also there is a prevalence of use of specific sensors to monitor or control older adults. In relation with the promotion of exercises, the main purpose is the prevention of falls of older adults. Few projects used Interactive Television with solutions that allow older adults to easily set reminders for their health care and use entertainment programs to have physical, mental and social well-being. Particularly we found very few projects related to promote physical activity.
