Background Stroke is a major cause of disability globally, with high recurrence rates despite the implementation of secondary prevention strategies. Promoting physical activity and reducing sedentary behaviour are critical to mitigate these risks. Collaborative research approaches, including citizen …

To reduce greenhouse gas emissions, countries around the world are pursuing electrification policies. In residential areas, electrification will increase electricity supply and demand, which is expected to increase grid congestion at a faster rate than grids can be reinforced. Battery energy storage …

OBJECTIVES: Amplitude-mode (A-mode) ultrasonography is a promising technique to monitor loss and recovery of skeletal muscle in patients with burns. However, its clinimetric properties are unknown. Therefore, we determined its feasibility, interrater, and intrarater reliability, and clinical utility. …

A novel synthetic approach to 2,6-bis(acrylamido)pyridine (BAAPy) has been developed, producing a dual-function monomer able to self-crosslink while providing functional binding sites through its amide and pyridine groups. The monomer's structure and purity were confirmed through NMR, FTIR, and HPLC …

Thematic analysis (TA) has become a prominent qualitative research method for identifying patterns in experiences, responses, narratives, and meanings in relation to a research question. In this paper, we provide researchers with an understanding of different approaches to TA and offer practical guidance …

AIM: To extract and interpret quantitative data exploring the effectiveness of family health conversations (FHCs) on family functioning, perceived support, health-related quality of life, caregiver burden and family health in families living with critical or chronic health conditions. BACKGROUND: Addressing …

Leercultuur is een beleidsinstrument om de vanzelfsprekendheid van leren te vergroten in organisaties. Dit moet leiden tot meer initiatief van individuele werknemers en werkgevers om te gaan leren en zich te ontwikkelen. Gebaseerd op sociaalwetenschappelijk onderzoek komen instrumenten om leercultuur …

Timber construction is rapidly advancing in structural engineering due to its benefits, such as light weight, ease of prefabrication, and contribution to societal goals. With an increase in building height, however, knowledge garnered by coupling advance modelling and experimental testing will enable …
