How to make an engaging infographic?
The theory Sufficient knowledge of the topic area is as important as artistic skill. [...]as health professionals and scientists we can be encouraged to be hands-on in the infographic design process and should seek to custom-design infographics that are attractive and suitable for our target audiences. Choose Charts Carefully In addition to the GRAPHIC principles, Gestalt laws help design infographics in a format that appeals to the cognitive processes of the human brain and to catch the attention of people's eyes. 4 A knowledge of these principles will inform design options and infographic outputs, but the actual process of infographic design and the number of steps involved will vary between different designers. Key ingredients for success Factors such as age, gender and education level of the consumer have been found to influence the ability of an infographic to capture attention. 5 Produce a final design which does appeal to the target population, and may additionally engage a wider audience. 5 Seek advice from the population group the infographic is designed for. 3 Asking for opinions on visual data designs from individuals outside of the workplace or design team is also crucial to ensure that infographic content and terminology is understandable...

Health-Education Package to Prevent Worm Infections in Chinese Schoolchildren
Helminths, such as
Ascaris lumbricoides,
infect more than a billion people globally. In this cluster-randomized trial in China, a school-based simple educational program was shown to substantially decrease the incidence of these infections in schoolchildren.
A third of the global population, mainly in developing countries, is infected with soil-transmitted helminths, which are intestinal parasitic nematode worms.
1
Infection with these parasitic worms is associated with poverty in rural locations, inadequate sanitation and waste disposal, a lack of clean water, and poor hygiene and is common in areas with limited access to health care and preventive measures.
2
Roundworms (
Ascaris lumbricoides
) are the largest and most prevalent soil-transmitted helminths, accounting for 1 billion infections; whipworms (
Trichuris trichiura
) and hookworms (
Necator americanus
and
Ancylostoma duodenale
) each infect 600 million to 800 million persons. Estimates . . .

The Influence of Billboard-Based Tobacco Prevention Posters on Memorization, Attitudes, and Craving: Immersive Virtual Reality Study
Health prevention campaigns often face challenges in reaching their target audience and achieving the desired impact on health behaviors. These campaigns, particularly those aimed at reducing tobacco use, require rigorous evaluation methods to assess their effectiveness.
This study aims to use immersive virtual reality (iVR) to systematically evaluate recall, attitudinal, and craving responses to antitobacco prevention messages when presented in a realistic virtual environment, thereby exploring the potential of iVR as a novel tool to improve the effectiveness of public health campaigns.
A total of 121 undergraduate students (mean age 19.6, SD 3.7 years), mostly female (n=99, 82.5%), were invited to take a guided walk in the virtual environment, where they were randomly exposed to a different ratio of prevention and general advertising posters (80/20 or 20/80) depending on the experimental condition. Participants' gaze was tracked throughout the procedure, and outcomes were assessed after the iVR exposure.
Incidental exposure to antitobacco prevention and general advertising posters did not significantly alter attitudes toward tobacco. Memorization of prevention posters was unexpectedly better in the condition where advertising was more frequent (β=-6.15; P<.001), and high contrast between poster types led to a better memorization of the less frequent type. Despite a nonsignificant trend, directing attention to prevention posters slightly improved their memorization (β=.02; P=.07). In addition, the duration of exposure to prevention posters relative to advertisements negatively affected memorization of advertising posters (β=-2.30; P=.01).
Although this study did not find significant changes in attitudes toward tobacco after exposure to prevention campaigns using iVR, the technology does show promise as an evaluation tool. To fully evaluate the use of iVR in public health prevention strategies, future research should examine different types of content, longer exposure durations, and different contexts.
