The growing demand for food due to a global population increase has made the use of pesticides in agriculture unavoidable despite their various harmful side effects. Driven by stricter legislation, nations are now compelled to find alternatives. This situation led to accelerated research around the world, …

3D lithography by two-photon photopolymerization enables the fabrication of complex microstructures that incorporate nanomaterials assembled in a controlled manner. This technology holds promise in various fields such as optics, photonics, biology, and nanomedicine. It is also being used in the renewable …

Managed realignment (MR) involves repositioning coastal or river flood defenses to re-establish tidal flooding and restore intertidal ecosystems in reclaimed areas. The restoration of intertidal ecosystems contributes to flood risk management and achieving nature conservation objectives. However, MR …

Biophilia, while often seen as a fashionable concept in design and architecture, goes well beyond being just a fad; rather, it is a necessity driven by deep human and ecological needs. In an era of rapid urbanization and increasing lifestyle-related health problems, as well as climate change and declining …

This work presents an experimental holistic approach for the design of a continuous catalytic conversion process of carbohydrates derived from waste biomass to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) using a tin-doped active carbon catalyst. In this report, apple biomass waste is used as a model component as …

BACKGROUND: Healthcare professionals in the hospital setting frequently assume primary caregiving responsibilities, which often leads family members to perceive this as standard practice during hospitalization. This dynamic may create a gap between actual and desired levels of family involvement. The …

PURPOSE: To gain a rich understanding of the experiences and opinions of patients, healthcare professionals, and policymakers regarding the design of OGR with structure, process, environment, and outcome components. METHODS: Qualitative research based on the constructive grounded theory approach is performed. …

Introduction: Nursing education traditionally teaches skill acquisition in isolated practice drills and guided by step-by-step protocols. While these approaches may seem to provide a solid foundation, they do not adequately bridge the gap between a controlled learning environment and the reality of nursing …

Background: Interprofessional collaboration (IPC) among health and social care providers is crucial to effectively implement community-based fall prevention. Several factors hinder successful and sustainable IPC, highlighting the need to both design and evaluate context-specific implementation strategies. …

Background: Chronic musculoskeletal pain is best addressed from a biopsychosocial perspective. Despite physiotherapists’ awareness of this approach, translating it into practice remains a challenge. A three-month post-graduate course was designed to facilitate Dutch physiotherapists in private practice …
