Germ-free sea bass Dicentrarchus labrax larval model : a valuable tool in the study of host-microbe interactions Universiteit Gent
DGGE fingerprinting for microbial community monitoring as a new tool for anthropogenic impact assessment on the Belgian part of the North Sea Instituut voor Landbouw-, Visserij- en Voedingsonderzoek
Verkeersveiligheid en -leefbaarheid verhogen via het homogeniseren van snelheden: de Verkeersbordendatabank als tool Universiteit Gent
Snelheid is een belangrijke ongevalsfactor. Wisselingen en verschil van snelheid in de verkeerstroom en snelheidsverschillen tussen verschillende voertuigen verhogen eveneens het ongevalsrisico. Wegencategorisering en snelheidszones zijn belangrijke instrumenten om tot een meer homogene snelheid te komen. Met behulp van de Verkeersbordendatabank werd een verkennend onderzoek uitgevoerd. Dit verkennend onderzoek onderzocht het effect van een ...
Development of a quality indicator set to measure and improve quality of ICU care for patients with traumatic brain injury Universiteit Antwerpen KU Leuven
BackgroundWe aimed to develop a set of quality indicators for patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) in intensive care units (ICUs) across Europe and to explore barriers and facilitators for implementation of these quality indicators.MethodsA preliminary list of 66 quality indicators was developed, based on current guidelines, existing practice variation, and clinical expertise in TBI management at the ICU. Eight TBI experts of the Advisory ...
Phase transitions in lipid vesicles detected by a complementary set of methods: heat-transfer measurements, adiabatic scanning calorimetry, and dissipation-mode quartz crystal microbalance Universiteit Hasselt KU Leuven
We report on the use of the heat transfer method, a novel surface-sensitive technique based on heat transfer through solid-liquid interfaces, to detect phase transitions of model lipid membranes. We selected the lipid DPPC because of its rich phase behavior in an experimentally accessible temperature range. The vesicles were adsorbed on nanocrystalline diamond films, known as a versatile platform material for biosensing with outstanding ...
COSCA (Core Outcome Set for Cardiac Arrest) in adults Universiteit Antwerpen
Cardiac arrest effectiveness trials have traditionally reported outcomes that focus on survival. A lack of consistency in outcome reporting between trials limits the opportunities to pool results for meta-analysis. The COSCA initiative (Core Outcome Set for Cardiac Arrest), a partnership between patients, their partners, clinicians, research scientists, and the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation, sought to develop a consensus core ...

CORE-IBD: A Multidisciplinary International Consensus Initiative to Develop a Core Outcome Set for Randomized Controlled Trials in Inflammatory Bowel Disease KU Leuven
BACKGROUND & AIMS: End points to determine the efficacy and safety of medical therapies for Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are evolving. Given the heterogeneity in current outcome measures, harmonizing end points in a core outcome set for randomized controlled trials is a priority for drug development in inflammatory bowel disease. METHODS: Candidate outcome domains and outcome measures were generated from systematic ...
Benchmarking of long-read structural variant callers on a recently released truth set using Oxford Nanopore data Universiteit Gent
Long-read sequencing (LRS) technologies unveil an unprecedented view into the human genome, with recent studies reporting the detection of up to an astonishing 27k structural variants (SVs) per individual. Along with emerging LRS techniques, new bioinformatics tools designed to identify and classify SVs in long reads are in constant development. To allow validation of (recently developed) SV detection methods, Zook et al. (2020; Nature ...
