“…However, this represents a weakness of the research field, due the presence of other definitions capable of providing interesting types of identification of the gamification concept. For example, gamification is understood as a strategy or an approach [59,83,84], an emerging trend [57] or a set of activities or services [67,84,85] that are useful for providing learning, communication and interaction to the user in a fun and engaging atmosphere in order to enhance results and behaviours, providing a better user experience. Moreover, gamification is understood as an integration or supporting tool (i) to foster co-creation processes of, for example, a new kind of healthy food product as well as a form of product advertising [86,87]; (ii) to engage specific users such as consumers, children and farmers [56,[88][89][90][91][92]; (iii) to stimulate food behaviour change [29] and technology usage [55].…”

Nowadays, digital platforms are applying some game-linked elements in their services with the aim to attract, retain and shape human interaction. Therefore, it is essential to investigate gamification with regard to its social sustainability. Gamification strategies are strategical in the agri-food industry to reach social and marketing goals. Despite the presence of several literature reviews on gamification, no study proposes a reflection on the meaning and purposes of gamification in the agri-food industry. This paper aims to identify the core dimensions underlying the concept of gamification, analysing its definitions and purposes through a systematic literature review, content analysis and principal component analysis. Eight core dimensions were detected leading to the conception of a new definition of gamification in the agri-food industry. Our results highlighted the potential of gamification to impact society, leaving points of reflection on how it can be made more inclusive and effective. Theoretical and practical implications were provided for academics, researchers, agri-food companies, policy makers, management engineers, technology makers, marketers and practitioners. The novelty of this study lies in the application of a social psychology methodology to give meaning to the words, overcoming the limits derived from qualitative research based on, only, content analysis.

“…Few studies have addressed the support of the nursing staff or nurse educator of diabetes in the use of CSII. However, evidence points out that the inclusion of this professional in the care of patients with diabetes increases the regularity of medical appointments and, therefore, they tend to follow more carefully the health team’s recommendations for treatment [ 146 – 148 ].…”

Use of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus: a systematic mapping review

et al. 2022

Background Among the treatments for type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion (CSII) is a device that infuses insulin through the subcutaneous tissue in an uninterrupted manner and that comes closest to the physiological secretion of insulin. The use of CSII can provide the family with greater security and children and adolescents have more autonomy in relation to the treatment of T1DM. There is a lack of reviews that systematically gather the mounting evidence about the use of CSII in children and adolescents with T1DM. Therefore, the aim of this review was to group and describe primary and secondary studies on the use of CSII in children and adolescents with T1DM. Methods A systematic mapping review was performed based on searches in the following databases: PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, Lilacs and PsycINFO, using a combination of descriptors and keywords. The screening of the studies was carried out with the aid of the Rayyan software and reading in full was conducted independently by two reviewers. The data extraction of the studies was performed using an extraction tool adapted and validated by researchers specialized in diabetes. The data were analyzed according to the content analysis technique. The map from geocoding of the studies was produced using the ArcGis 10.5 software. Results A total of 113 studies were included in the review, including primary studies, literature reviews and gray literature publications. The content analysis of the results of the studies allowed for the identification of four categories: 1) metabolic control; 2) support networks; 3) benefits of using CSII; and 4) challenges of using CSII, each category having its respective subcategories. The review also made it possible to conduct a rigorous mapping of the literature on the use of CSII considering the location of development and the design of the studies. Conclusions The use of CSII should be indicated by health professionals able to prepare children, adolescents, and their families for the treatment of T1DM, and, despite being a technological device, it may not be suitable for the entire pediatric population.
