Barriers and facilitators to the implementation of the Assessment of Burden of Chronic Conditions tool in Dutch primary care: a context analysis.

Objectives: The Assessment of Burden of Chronic Conditions (ABCC) tool is developed to facilitate a personalised approach to care through assessment and visualisation of a patient's experienced burden of disease, and integrating this in the conversation based on shared decision-making and individualised care plans. An indispensable step in the implementation process is an understanding of the context. The aim of this study is to perform a context analysis to identify barriers and facilitators to the implementation of the ABCC tool by healthcare providers (HCPs) in Dutch primary care.

International Expert-Based Consensus Definition, Classification Criteria, and Minimum Data Elements for Osteoradionecrosis of the Jaw: An Inter-Disciplinary Modified Delphi Study.

Purpose: Osteoradionecrosis of the jaw (ORNJ) is a severe iatrogenic disease characterized by bone death after radiation therapy (RT) to the head and neck. With over 9 published definitions and at least 16 classification systems, the true incidence and severity of ORNJ are obscured by lack of a standard for disease definition and severity assessment, leading to inaccurate estimation of incidence, reporting ambiguity, and likely under-diagnosis worldwide. This study aimed to achieve consensus on an explicit definition and phenotype of ORNJ and related precursor states through data standardization to facilitate effective diagnosis, monitoring, and multidisciplinary management of ORNJ.

Observational study: effect of varying transport durations and feed withdrawal on the physiological status and health of dairy calves.

Long-distance transport and associated fasting of unweaned calves have the potential to compromise the animals' welfare. This observational study aimed to determine how transport and fasting durations impacted the physiology and health of 115 transported calves in three transport groups; IRE (n = 20, mean age 29.8d; short road transport (~ 29 h incl.

Fast and exact gap-affine partial order alignment with POASTA.

Motivation: Partial order alignment is a widely used method for computing multiple sequence alignments, with applications in genome assembly and pangenomics, among many others. Current algorithms to compute the optimal, gap-affine partial order alignment do not scale well to larger graphs and sequences. While heuristic approaches exist, they do not guarantee optimal alignment and sacrifice alignment accuracy.

Pharmacists' perspectives on potential pharmacist prescribing: a nationwide survey in the Netherlands.

Background: Pharmacist prescribing legislation aims to enhance healthcare quality and accessibility. However, in many countries, like the Netherlands, it has not yet been legally established.

Aim: To investigate pharmacists' perspectives on potential pharmacist prescribing in the Netherlands.
