In this study, we regard co-creation as a collaborative process where students, lecturers and working field professionals from outside the university jointly develop innovative products, processes or knowledge. In co-creation all stakeholders equally contribute to the collaborative process and aim to …

Machine learning models have been an inevitable tool for analyzing medical images by radiologists. These models provide important information about the contents of these images using extracted radiomic features. However, the dimensionality of the feature space can cause reduction in the accuracy of prediction, …

The aim of this systematic review was to provide an overview of the effectiveness of fundamental movement skill interventions in young children (2–5 years) and to identify elements that determine the effectiveness of these interventions.

Objective Repeated practice, or spacing, can improve various types of skill acquisition. Similarly, virtual reality (VR) simulators have demonstrated their effectiveness in fostering surgical skill acquisition and provide a promising, realistic environment for spaced training. To explore how spacing …

Oil extraction from Andean lupin beans (Lupinus mutabilis SWEET) via supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) was studied on both lab scale and pilot scale. On the lab scale, the effect of pressure, solvent-to-feed ratio (S/F), sample particle size and temperature on oil yield were evaluated. The oil quality …

Scar contractures are a common complication after burn injuries. These contractures are characterized by impairment of joint mobility, leading to a risk for limitations during daily activities, and restrictions in participation in society. Qualifying its severity is not well established in burn care. …

BACKGROUND: Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) are a key topic in occupational health. In the primary prevention of these disorders, interventions to minimize exposure to work-related physical risk factors are widely advocated. Besides interventions aimed at the work organisation and the …

Per-fluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are persistent organic pollutants and do not degrade in the environment. They contain a carbon-fluorine bond, and these are called organic fluorides. A group of PFASs, which can be extracted from soil samples and be analysed, are called extractable …
