Teams are dynamic systems that develop, adapt, and change as members interact and respond to their environments. Theory in organizational research emphasizes that team phenomena are multilevel, temporal, and often nonlinear. Yet, the statistical methods commonly used to study teams have lagged behind these theoretical advances, limiting empirical progress. This dissertation addresses this methodol

All together now: discover how the collective behaviour of atoms, humans, and birds inspire researchers to make new light-emitting materials and devices.

This commentary argues that the concept of ‘polycrisis’ must be critically reoriented through a decolonial lens,particularly about the global South, where overlapping crises have long been the norm. While ‘polycrisis’ hasbecome a buzzword among global economic and political elites, scholars have studied its relevance mainly forthe global North. Using the climate and debt crises as two entry points

In most mammals, the cell cycle kinase; cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) is expressed as two major isoforms due to alternative splicing. The shorter CDK2 isoform: CDK2S, is expressed constitutively during the cell cycle and can be detected in several tissues. In contrast, the longer isoform: CDK2L, shows preferential expression in meiotically dividing cells and upon S-phase entry in the mitotic cy

In order to accurately assess the quality of low-resolution biogeophysical parameter products, accurate scale transformations are essential. However, different scaling models often lead to inconsistent transformation results. More worryingly, many biogeophysical parameters are not scale-invariant, such as the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), which makes the quality assessment of low-

AbstractThis research aims to investigate and compare how computers work on five different workstation setups of multiple or large screens and viewing distances (27-inch and 49-inch at 70 or 90 cm viewing distance) affect muscular load in neck/shoulders, working postures, and perceived exertions of non-presbyopic participants. The electrical activity in the trapezius shoulder and trapezius neck muThis research aims to investigate and compare how computers work on five different workstation setups of multiple or large screens and viewing distances (27-inch and 49-inch at 70 or 90 cm viewing distance) affect muscular load in neck/shoulders, working postures, and perceived exertions of non-presbyopic participants.

AbstractEyestrain is a common issue when performing visually demanding work, often accompanied by neck and shoulder strain, as well as visual problems such as dim vision. The aim of this paper is to investigate the association between eyestrain and musculoskeletal strain, as well as the association between eyestrain and visual symptoms. Two regression analyses were conducted on subjective ratings Eyestrain is a common issue when performing visually demanding work, often accompanied by neck and shoulder strain, as well as visual problems such as dim vision.

Objective: An elevated sodium-to-potassium (Na/K) ratio in urine increases the risk of hypertension. Tooth loss in older adults can lead to a diminished nutritional state, including alterations in the Na/K ratio. However, the relationship between denture use and changes in the Na/K ratio among individuals with tooth loss has not been sufficiently explored. This study examined whether denture use m

Background & Aims The risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is unclear. Studies indicate a low risk for HCC questioning the rationale for current HCC surveillance guidelines. This study explores the risk of HCC in a longitudinal multicenter cohort with over 3.000 PSC-subjects. Approach & results Subjects with well characterized PSC (n=3.071) were fo

Subjective cognitive decline (SCD) is proposed as an indicator of transitional disease stage 2 in the Alzheimer’s disease (AD) continuum. However, molecular and particularly longitudinal fluid biomarker data for this stage are still limited. This study aimed to determine whether blood-based biomarkers in amyloid-positive individuals with SCD (A + SCD) support the notion of stage 2 as a distinct st

Objective: Quality measures in healthcare are crucial for improving outcomes and ensuring patient safety. This study investigated the evolution, implementation, and impact of Primary Care Quality (PCQ). The PCQ aims to facilitate nationwide quality benchmarking, serving as a tool for quality improvement (QI) and research. Design/Settings: A descriptive design outlining the development and operatio

Introduction: Chemoradiotherapy is standard treatment for limited-stage SCLC. However, most patients relapse and there is a need for better treatment. We investigated whether twice-daily thoracic radiotherapy (TRT) of 60 Gy/40 fractions improves survival compared with the established schedule of 45 Gy/30 fractions. Here, we report final survival data and long-term toxicity. Methods: Randomized, op

Objectives: Coagulation test results may be affected by hemolysis, icterus and/or lipemia (HIL). Detailed guidelines for HIL-management are missing, both for manual and automatic HIL-checks. The aim of this survey was to provide an overview of the practical procedures for the detection and handling of HIL-samples used by laboratories in Europe in the context of coagulation testing. Methods: A Surv
