After the successful pilot EPD Project in 2002-2003, we decided to perform the EPD project in four additional countries: Belgium, Greece, Norway and Scotland. Before starting the EPD Project in Belgium, we installed a Belgium National EPD Board in order to support the practical organisation of this project. National coordinators were Luc Picavet (Chair) and Sylviane Boullé (Wallonia). The members of the Belgium National EPD Board were Jean-Yves De Vos (President of National Association, ORPADT Flanders), Hichem Marzougui (Link member, Association of Dialysis Technicians) and Luc Vonckx (President of Association of Dialysis Technicians).

Delandistrogene moxeparvovec is an rAAVrh74 vector-based gene transfer therapy that delivers a transgene encoding delandistrogene moxeparvovec micro-dystrophin, an engineered, functional form of dystrophin shown to stabilize or slow disease progression in DMD. It is approved in the US and in other select countries. Two serious adverse event cases of immune-mediated myositis (IMM) were reported in the phase Ib ENDEAVOR trial (NCT04626674).

Featuring scientists in classroom materials provides opportunities for students to relate to scientists as role models and see themselves in science. However, it is unclear what information students find most relatable when encountering scientists throughout their education. In this study, we manipulated the amount and type of information provided about scientists featured in biology courses.

In research aimed at improving the brittleness of WER (waterborne epoxy)-modified emulsified asphalt, commonly encountered issues are that the low-temperature performance of this type of asphalt becomes insufficient and the long curing time leads to low early strength. Matrix-emulsified asphalt was modified with WPU (waterborne polyurethane), WER, and DMP-30 (accelerator). Firstly, the performance changes of modified emulsified asphalt at different single-factor dosages were explored through conventional performance tests and assessments of its adhesion, tensile properties, and curing time.

Background: An early rhythm control strategy is the preferred management for patients newly diagnosed with atrial fibrillation (AF). A rhythm control strategy, however, has been historically underused for patients from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups (UREGs).
Objective: We aimed to determine whether disparities in rhythm control are present at the initial diagnosis with AF.

Three-color electrophoretic display (EPD) is emerging as a display technology due to its extremely low energy consumption and excellent reflective properties. However, in the process of black and white color image transition, due to the different driving characteristics of red particles, the particles within the three-color EPD cannot be ideally driven to the target position, resulting in the appearance of a red ghost image. For this reason, this study utilized the COMSOL 5.
