Although attitudes toward sustainable commuting have become more positive in many countries, actual behavioral change remains slow. Meanwhile, the transport sector remains a major source of greenhouse gas emissions in Europe, with significant differences in sustainability efforts between governments …

This study evaluates the effect of gamification on the engagement and performance of first-year students in the International Supply Chain Management course at a University of Applied Sciences. Several students were exposed to the pilot of The Fresh Connection compact, a simulation game which was implemented …

Background and aim. To improve the indoor environmental quality (IEQ) in schools, the Dutch government issued a program of requirements (PoR) “Fresh Schools”. This study aims to determine the effect of adopting class A (high IEQ) or B (moderate IEQ) of this PoR on students’ comfort and performance. Requirements …

Background The increasing demands of an aging population, healthcare workforce shortages, financial constraints, and a shift in care perspectives call for rethinking geriatric rehabilitation (GR). To ensure GR remains sustainable, a transition towards home-based GR is proposed, reducing the need for …

This study systematically evaluates greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reporting practices of European airline groups, covering both mandatory and voluntary key performance indicators (KPIs) under evolving regulatory frameworks. By analysing annual and sustainability reports from 16 major airline groups, …

INTRODUCTION: Physical Activity (PA) is essential for enhancing the physical function of pre-frail and frail older adults. However, among this group, PA-levels vary significantly. Identifying the factors contributing to these differences could support tailored PA interventions. This study aims to examine …

Introduction: Several barriers, such as lack of time, knowledge and support, hinder clinicians from providing an individually tailored physical activity (PA) prescription and referral to their patients. As a result, “exercise is medicine” (E = M) is not systematically implemented in clinical care today. …

Marginalisation is a multilevel phenomenon in society depriving people from essential rights, resources, and opportunities. Street-outreach services in the Netherlands, like social street work (SSW), support these marginalised people in fostering their participation in society as an answer to their marginalised …

Introduction The cardiovascular biomarkers troponin T, N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide, and fibroblast growth factor 23 are elevated in hemodialysis patients and associated with an increased cardiovascular mortality risk. Nocturnal hemodialysis improves the fluid status in hemodialysis patients. …

Adsorbed natural gas (ANG) storage using metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is a promising alter- native for efficient natural gas storage at moderate pressures. However, the presence of higher alkanes in natural gas mixtures can significantly affect storage performance by reducing methane adsorption capacity. …
