Aggression towards the GP: can we profile the GP–victim? A cross-section survey among GPs KU Leuven
Abstract Background: Aggression against GPs has increased in the past decade. Depending on experience, interpretation, and personality, the interpretation of aggressive patient behaviour will differ among doctors. Aim: To investigate how often GPs experience aggression in a 1-year time span and what the relationship is between the GP’s personality (based on the ’Big Five’ personality traits) and the reporting of aggression. Secondly, to ...
CD40 ligand expressed in adenovirus can improve the immunogenicity of the GP3 and GP5 of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus in swine Ghent University
GPs' attitudes on a healthy lifestyle: a survey of GPs in Flanders. Vrije Universiteit Brussel
BACKGROUND:
Patients often consider health professionals to be role models for leading a healthy lifestyle but no data is available on tobacco, alcohol, or substance use among GPs in Flanders (northern Belgium).
AIM:
To estimate the prevalence of smoking, alcohol, and substance use among GPs, in order to determine factors that influence these habits and to elucidate GPs' attitudes toward a healthy ...

Likelihood-based offline map matching of GPS recordings using global trace information Hasselt University
In batch map matching the objective is to derive from a time series of position data the sequence of road segments visited by the traveler for posterior analysis. Taking into account the limited accuracy of both the map and the measurement devices several different movements over network links may have generated the observed measurements. The set of candidate solutions can be reduced by adding assumptions about the traveller’s behavior (e.g. ...
Physical activity benefits of attending a senior center depend largely on age and gender: a study using GPS and accelerometry data. Vrije Universiteit Brussel
BackgroundSenior centers offer important opportunities for physical activity and social interaction. Seniors who visit a senior center regularly can gain physical activity from transportation and from specific activities offered within the senior center. However, there is very little knowledge regarding the specific physical activity gains obtained from regular visits to senior centers, and no effort has been made to use device-based measures of ...
Understanding the present-day spatiotemporal variability of precipitable water vapor over Ethiopia : a comparative study between ERA5 and GPS Ghent University

ENHANCING GPS POSITIONING ACCURACY FROM THE GENERATION OF GROUND-TRUTH REFERENCE POINTS FOR ON-ROAD URBAN NAVIGATION Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The global positioning system (GPS) is a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) uses a constellation of between 24 and 32 Medium Earth Orbit satellites that transmit precise microwave signals, which enable GPS receivers to determine their current location, the time, and their velocity [1]. Initially, the GPS was developed for military applications, but very quickly became the most used technology in positioning even for end-user applications ...
Measuring delays for bicycles at signalized intersections using smartphone GPS tracking data Ghent University
The article describes an application of global positioning system (GPS) tracking data (floating bike data) for measuring delays for cyclists at signalized intersections. For selected intersections, we used trip data collected by smartphone tracking to calculate the average delay for cyclists by interpolation between GPS locations before and after the intersection. The outcomes were proven to be stable for different strategies in selecting the ...
