The FP7 PRECIOUS Sample Clauses

The FP7 PRECIOUS. Approach The Health Risk Factors As mentioned earlier, the risk factors selected for developing the PRECIOUS system are originally derived from the PREVE relationship matrix of Figure 3 enabled by the emerging sensing technol- ogies. PRECIOUS will look at a sustainable system where users will seamlessly interact with the system through body area networks and transparent sensing. Specifically, the PRECIOUS project will focus on risk factors associated with two NCDs, namely: type-2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. It is clear, that overconsumption of food is a main contributor to obesity, which is usually further exacerbated by lack of exercise and genetic and epigenetic factors [Rhee12] contributing to both diseases. However it is also recognized that under-nutrition, either due to low energy intake or various nutrient deficiencies, can contribute to NCDs, such as osteoporosis and musculoskeletal disorders. Therefore, understanding how to track food intake efficiently and transparently is an im- portant factor in preventive care. Also, user needs to get the feedback of development efficiently and in a user centric way. Home environment can also be a risk factor for physical or mental well-being, attributed for in- stance to temperature, illumination conditions, noise, moisture etc. that can also sometimes be modified or controlled by the individual, either directly or indirectly, especially via home automation systems that would clearly support integrated health environment development. This environmental framework includes also controlling usage of food supplies at home and developing updated shop- ping routines, as well as using the automated monitoring of food intake to be researched. Further- more, when compared to [PREVE11], we introduce two new risk factors into the PRECIOUS sys- tem, namely, stress and sleep quality that have also a connection in monitoring healthier life styles. This will be supported by the connection to home automation and the intelligent model of the user in the system. Although stress in itself is among the variety of catalyzers of mental disorders, there is compelling evidence (e.g. [Cohen07]) of the clinical link between stress and heightened risk of certain NCDs (e.g. cardiovascular diseases). Similar strong correlations have also been noted between low sleep quality and diseases such as, type-2 diabetes in at-risk populations [Touma11]. Furthermore, un- der stressful situations people tend to increase intake of high fat ...
