As campuses wish to stimulate interactions among different campus users, we aim to identify why some locations are successful in fostering unplanned meetings while others are not. This can help campus managers, directors, and other practitioners to optimize their campus to facilitate unplanned meetings between academic staff and companies. Findings of a previous survey were discussed in five focus groups, which were transcribed and thematically coded. Three separate theme groups were identified: function (food, drinks, events, work, facilities), space (distance, experience, accessibility, characteristics), and organization (coherence, culture, organization). Time was an overarching constraint, influencing all other themes. There were three natural moments for unplanned meetings: during short breaks, lunch breaks, and events. The outcomes suggest a 5-minute campus as the environment of interaction; a campus where natural moments, locations, and travel time for unplanned meetings are designed and aligned: (1) under 5 min walking for short workplace breaks, (2) approximately 5 min travel time for lunch breaks, and (3) over 5 min travel time for events, depending on the event length and anticipated knowledge gain.

Background: Today, in a wide variety of industries, grinding operations are an extremely important finishing process for obtaining precise dimensions and meeting strict requirements for roughness and shape accuracy. However, the constant wear of abrasive tools during grinding negatively affects the dimensional and surface conditions of the workpiece. Therefore, effective monitoring of the wear process during grinding operations helps to predict tool life, plan maintenance and ensure consistent product quality.

Article Synopsis
- The study examines the relationship between family size and socioeconomic/demographic factors among women in Erbil, Kurdistan Region of Iraq, focusing on those aged 45-74 who have completed their families.
- Results show that 78.5% of participants had large families (7+ members) and a lifetime fertility rate of 6.78 births per woman, with significant links to early marriage and unplanned pregnancies.
- The findings suggest the need for empowerment through education and job opportunities to help young women achieve a smaller, more desired family size.
Introduction: Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a rare, acquired, non-malignant hematologic disease characterized by complement-mediated hemolysis (with or without hemoglobinuria), fatigue, increased susceptibility to thrombosis, and bone marrow dysfunction. The development of complement inhibitors has transformed outcomes for patients with PNH, but patients may still experience pharmacodynamic breakthrough hemolysis (BTH), which can be caused by exposure to a complement amplifying condition (CAC), such as vaccination, infection, or surgery.
Materials And Methods: A 13-member expert panel used a validated methodology (a RAND/UCLA modified Delphi panel) to develop consensus on how to classify pharmacodynamic BTH in patients with complement-inhibitor treated PNH.

The development of chronic diseases and the aging of the population are increasing the demand for specialized nursing care in both outpatient and inpatient services. In 2019, the Sarine outpatient care service introduced a Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS) to support the teams and management in systematically analyzing clinical practice. In some nursing homes, the INTERCARE model, developed by Advanced Practice Nurses (APNs), has been implemented.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the impact of peri-procedural myocardial injury (PPMI) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) using the updated VARC-3 criteria compared to the previous VARC-2 criteria.
- High-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) levels were assessed pre- and post-procedure, with elevated baseline levels being significant predictors of all-cause mortality and major cardiac adverse events within one year post-TAVI.
- The findings indicate that VARC-3 criteria offered better prognostic insights regarding patient outcomes, with patients meeting VARC-3 criteria experiencing higher mortality rates than those meeting VARC-2 criteria.
