Opera Touch lets you explore the web using just one hand. You can also use Opera Touch to scan a barcode on a product and to look it up online. When you have found a QR code, simply use the app to scan it and go to the website it links to. When you start Opera Touch, the browser is instantly ready to find things on the web. That's why Opera Touch features a fast web search and is designed to make it easy to browse with only one hand. (Like other browser makers without a search engine of their own, browser revenue at Opera has historically come from money paid by a search vendor for default placement rights.We know you like to browse the web when you're on the go. It's unrealistic to think that a UI revamp - interesting though it may be - and a catch-up to competitors on the desktop will prove sufficient to juice Opera's use, thus its share and so its revenue. (On the mobile front, Opera's share was virtually the same a year ago.) Chrome, in comparison, controlled a 62% share on the desktop and 65% on mobile.Īnd Opera's latest numbers were lower than 12 months prior: In March 2017, the browser accounted for 2% of all those on the desktop. In mobile, Opera's user share - an estimate of the percentage of Internet users who ran the browser during March - was an even more dismal 0.3%, or about 1 out of every 300 people. Last month, Opera on the desktop accounted for just 1.5% of the browsers used to access the Internet, according to analytics vendor Net Applications. ![]() Opera instead links the mobile and desktop browser when the smartphone does its one-time scan of the QR code displayed on the PC or Mac.īut Opera's efforts are unlikely to yank its browsers out of the share cellar. To sync Chrome on a smartphone with Chrome on the desktop, for example, the user must be logged into his or her Google account on both devices. He was referring to the lack of a cross-platform account, which Opera foreswears, but rivals rely on. " scan a QR to sync," Kocemba said during his on-stage demonstration. While other browsers have long had tab and history synchronization between their mobile and desktop editions - Safari does, Chrome does, so does Firefox - so that open tabs, say, on an iPhone would be replicated on a Windows personal computer, Opera on Wednesday trumpeted the feature as if it were brand new. "In Opera Touch, setting up the connection between your smartphone and your desktop browser takes only one step," according to a statement quoting Kocemba on the new browser-to-browser sync. It also doubles, as shown, as a search tool for sifting through open tabs.īut when the mobile and desktop versions are paired, said Opera, they're more than the sum of their parts. Opera on the desktop – here, running on macOS – sports a new focused search feature, which overlays the search box and results, atop the current web page. The same tool also lets users search through all open tabs with a toggle of - yes, the Tab key - a godsend for those who love to crowd the browser with tons of tabs. A search field opens, accepts input and then the screen displays results, all atop the current web page so users don't have to backtrack after a successful search. A new tool, called "Instant Search," opens with a press of the Alt-space key combination (on Windows and Linux) or Option-space (macOS). "Unlike in most other browsers, you can now more easily browse and search the web when on the move," Kocemba added in an accompanying Wednesday post to the company's blog.Īt the same time, Opera updated its desktop browser - editions are available for Windows, macOS and Linux - to also emphasize search. ![]()

![]() ![]() The model consist of 17 sub-models designed to simulate diabetes related complications, nonspecific mortality, and costs over time. The interactive simulation predicts the long-term health outcomes and costs associated with the management of type 1 and 2 DM. The model is internet based, with a Markov application, for individuals >18 years. The submitter used a commercially available cost-effectiveness model, IMS CORE diabetes model (IMS CDM) for this assessment. We assessed the cost-effectiveness estimates provided by the submitter of FreeStyle Libre compared to self-monitoring blood glucose (SMBG) for individuals with type 1 and 2 DM. For some outcomes we employed a narrative synthesis. Meta-analysis was considered a suitable analysis for the data identified, despite heterogeneity. We solved any disagreements by consensus. Quality assessment of evidence was carried out independently by two reviewers. The assessment of the methodological quality of each included study was based on the Cochrane Collaboration risk of bias tool. A second reviewer checked data extraction and any disagreements we resolved by consensus. One reviewer extracted data relating to study details, participants, intervention, and comparator, using a piloted, standard data extraction form. We obtained full text copies of all studies deemed potentially relevant and the same two reviewers independently assessed these for inclusion solving any disagreements by consensus. Two reviewers independently screened the titles and abstracts of all records identified by searches, discussed any discrepancies and solved them by consensus. We searched databases, trial registries, health technology assessment agencies websites and grey literature from inception to January 2017 with no language restrictions. The study populations were insulin treated individuals with Type 1 or 2 DM, the intervention was FreeStyle Libre, and the outcomes were HbA1c, hypo and hyperglycaemia, quality of life, patient satisfaction, pain, and adverse events. We conducted a systematic review according to standard methods to summarise the evidence. Our goal was to assess the clinical effectiveness, cost effectiveness and safety of FreeStyle Libre for individuals with type 1 and 2 DM. Similarly to other continuous glucose monitoring options, it relies on the individual to take action on the information retrieved. Also, unlike other systems, the individual has to take active action to get access to the real time glucose value, by leading the receiver over the sensor. The system, unlike others, does not require finger prick calibration, since that functionality is embedded into the core technology. In recent years, and available in Europe since 2014, the FreeStyle Libre System - a “wireless” method using a sensor for monitoring interstitial fluid glucose - was introduced to help individuals with type 1 and 2 DM achieve better glucose control. “Management” of the disease should be understood as a package including testing of blood glucose, taking insulin ( i.e., multiple daily insulin injections, using an insulin pump), using anti-hyperglycemic drugs, or adopting lifestyle interventions such as diet and physical activity. Adequate treatment management, aimed at tight control of blood glucose, reduces the risk of the long-term complications of diabetes such as retinopathy, nephropathy, neuropathy, coronary heart disease, ischaemic stroke and peripheral vascular disease. To achieve proper quality of life and reduce long-term problems, people are increasingly encouraged to take an active role in the management of their condition. This assessment will focus on FreeStyle Libre, flash glucose monitor for insulin treated individuals with type 1 and 2 diabetes (“Type 1 and 2 DM”). Type 1 and 2 are the two main types, with the prevalence of type 2 accounting for the majority (>85%) of diabetes. ![]() Diabetes is a metabolic disorder resulting from a defect in insulin production, secretion, action, or all. According to the 2014 Norwegian Public Health report, diabetes affects an estimated 4.3% of the Norwegian population. Diabetes mellitus (DM) has become one of the most common public health problems world-wide. ![]() |
