Abstract

PURPOSE: A new paradigm, "healthcare's new iron triangle," has been developed to emphasise the technological perspective of healthcare delivery, focusing on automation, value and empathy. The study aims to build a conceptual model and to identify factors for the enhancement of the new iron triangle in healthcare organisations. DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH: The healthcare organisation is the primary focus point of the current study. To determine the factors, a survey of the literature and healthcare experts' opinions was conducted. The healthcare professionals validated the identified factors. Data for this study were gathered using a closed-ended questionnaire and scheduled interviews. The study employed "Total Interpretive Structural Modeling methodology and Matriced' Impacts Croise´s Multiplication Appliqué´ a UN Classement/Cross-Impact Matrix Multiplication Applied to a Classification (MICMAC) analysis" to address the "why" and "how" the factors interact and prioritise the identified factors. FINDINGS: The study found that organisational structure (F8), artificial intelligence (F1), innovation (F2) and human resources (F5) are the driving or key factors of the study. RESEARCH LIMITATIONS/IMPLICATIONS: The study primarily focused on identifying factors for the enhancement of a new iron triangle in healthcare organisations. The scope could eventually be expanded to explore more areas. PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS: Academics and other stakeholders will have a better understanding of the key drivers for the enhancement of the new iron triangle in healthcare organisations. ORIGINALITY/VALUE: In this study, total interpretive structural modeling and cross-impact MICMAC analysis are proposed as an innovative approach to address the new iron triangle in healthcare organisations.

Global Genomic Surveillance.

Global genomic surveillance has emerged as a foundational pillar of public health in the twenty-first century, enabling real-time tracking of pathogen evolution and informing outbreak response. This chapter examines the strategic architecture of global genomic surveillance, focusing on its application to arboviruses such as chikungunya virus (CHIKV). It explores the integration of genomic data with epidemiological, clinical, and environmental information within a One Health framework, while addressing critical challenges in governance, equity, and interoperability. The discussion covers the entire genomic surveillance workflow, from sample collection and sequencing to bioinformatic analysis and phylogenetic inference, and highlights the transformative role of artificial intelligence (AI) in predictive surveillance. By analyzing global initiatives, operational barriers, and emerging technologies, this chapter underscores the necessity of sustainable, equitable, and interoperable genomic systems to proactively address current and future infectious disease threats.

Systematic Dissection of Key Driver Perturbation Signatures in Single Cells via ECCITE-seq.

CRISPR screens, such as expanded CRISPR-compatible cellular indexing of transcriptomes and epitopes by sequencing (ECCITE-seq), enable the simultaneous measurement of transcriptomes, gRNA identity, and cell-surface protein expression at single-cell resolution to systematically interrogate gene function. This platform provides a powerful and scalable experimental approach for validating disease-associated regulators identified by large-scale association studies and other computational methods, including network-based analyses of multi-omics data. Here, as an example application, we describe an ECCITE-seq framework to characterize the transcriptomic consequences of perturbing multiple neuronal key driver genes associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) in human-induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived neurons. More broadly, by integrating customized pooled gRNA libraries with different CRISPR effectors across multiple cell types, this approach allows for the assessment of the regulatory impact of candidate genes implicated in development and disease processes.

Identification of Genome-Wide Chromatin Structural Aberration in Cancer by Hi-C Analysis.

Aberrant three-dimensional genome organization is a hallmark of cancer, often driving oncogene activation through mechanisms such as enhancer hijacking. High-throughput chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) maps these interactions on a genome-wide scale. Unlike earlier dilution-based methods, in situ Hi-C performs proximity ligation within intact nuclei, minimizing random ligation noise and enabling fine-scale structure detection. This chapter describes an optimized in situ Hi-C protocol tailored for cancer cell lines using MboI digestion and biotin-mediated pull-down to generate high-complexity libraries. We further outline a computational workflow that extends beyond standard topological mapping of compartments and topologically associating domains to identify cancer-specific aberrations. Specifically, we focus on detecting chromosomal rearrangements (structural variants) and characterizing the distinct circular topology of extrachromosomal DNA. This integrated experimental and analytical framework provides the necessary tools to dissect the spatial dysregulation underlying tumor evolution.
