This work serves to propose a national electronic health system based on the Big Data approach. First of all, we assessed the practice of health information systems (HIS) in Morocco and their obstacles. We performed a survey that was founded on 24 questions to specify the necessary details on this topic. This study shows that there is a primary need for the establishment of an HIS that facilitates the control, analysis, and management of health data in Morocco. For this reason, we have proposed the implementation of the Moroccan Health Data Bank (MHDB). This system will be based on powerful big data technologies that save, manage, and process health data with greater efficiency. The information present in this proposed system can provide the necessary resources for several actors to exploit this wealth, which is embodied in this massive data. We have developed a general description of the MHDB, its components, its conceptual architecture, and an example of a use case.

In terms of storage and consumption, blockchain technology is poised to transform the way we manage healthcare data. The primary goal is to empower individuals to take charge of their health records, allowing them to become independent of the institutions or organizations they use. Elec-tronic Health Records (EHRs) can be tracked in a novel and unique way through blockchain tech-nology and smart contracts. This technology can give patients more control over their data. Health practitioners and institutions, such as hospitals, may be granted access to patient data controlled by other organizations. This research highlights how blockchain technology can be used to manage EHRs while improving operational efficiency through process simplification and transparency. Additionally, the study proposes an architecture for managing and sharing healthcare data across enterprises. The suggested approach could significantly reduce the time required to transfer patient data among various health organizations while lowering overall costs.

Heart failure is a severe medical ailment that significantly impacts patients’ well-being and the healthcare system. For improved results, early detection and immediate treatment are essential. This work aims to develop and evaluate predictive models by applying sophisticated ensemble learning techniques. In order to forecast heart failure, we used a clinical dataset from Kaggle. We used the well-known ensemble techniques of bagging and random forest (RF) to create our models. With a predicted accuracy of 82.74%, the RF technique, renowned for its versatility and capacity to handle complex data linkages, fared well. The bagging technique, which employs several models and bootstrapped samples, also demonstrated a noteworthy accuracy of 83.98%. The proposed model achieved an accuracy of 90.54%. These results emphasize the value of group learning in predicting cardiac failure. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) was another metric to assess the model’s discriminative ability, and our model achieved 94% AUC. This study dramatically improves the prognostic modeling for heart failure. The findings have extensive implications for clinical practice and healthcare systems and offer a valuable tool for early detection and intervention in cases of heart failure.

This study investigates Ghanaian students' adoption of Mobile Learning (ML) by extending the technology acceptance model with a subjective norm variable. Specifically, this study focuses on the moderating effect of gender using the Measurement Invariance of Composite Models for the analysis. The study used a purposive sampling technique to collect the data for the study from sec-ond-year diploma students at the University of Professional Studies in Accra. SmartPLS 3.3.3 was used to analyze the data from 330 respondents. The findings of the study suggest that perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, and subjective norm have a significant influence on the behavior-al intention to adopt mobile learning for the complete data set. In addition, the results suggest that the impact of the subjective norm was not significant for female students but for male students. Also, the impact of perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness on behavioral intention were insignificant. Furthermore, the findings suggest that behavioral intention influences students' actual use of mobile devices to access learning materials. Finally, gender moderates the relationship be-tween subjective norms and behavioral intention. The findings demonstrate group heterogeneity, therefore, investigations on technology adoption must always incorporate group dynamics to un-derstand how different groups respond to its adoption. The findings of the study hold significance for both policy and research implications.

The term "clickbait" refers to content specifically designed to capture readers' attention, often through misleading headlines, leading to frustration among social media users. In this study, titled "Mushakkal," which translates to "variety" in Arabic, we utilized a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)—a deep learning approach—to detect clickbait within an Arabic dataset. We compared three optimizers: RMSprop, Adam, and Adadelta, evaluating various parameter settings to determine the most effective combination for detecting clickbait in Arabic content. Our findings revealed that the CNN model performed best when both pre-processing and Word2Vec techniques were applied. The Adam optimizer outperformed the others, achieving a Macro-F1 score of 77%. The RMSprop optimizer closely followed, attaining a Macro-F1 score of 76%. In contrast, Adadelta proved to be the least effective for classifying Arabic text.
