Measurement of the diffractive longitudinal structure function F(L)(D) at HERA Vrije Universiteit Brussel
First measurements are presented of the diffractive cross section I ( )ep( -> )eXY( ) at centre-of-mass energies of 225 and , together with a precise new measurement at of , using data taken with the H1 detector in the years 2006 and 2007. Together with previous H1 data at of , the measurements are used to extract the diffractive longitudinal structure function in the range of photon virtualities and fractional proton longitudinal momentum ...
Using the inverse heat conduction problem and thermography for the determination of local heat transfer coefficients and fin effectiveness for longitudinal fins Universiteit Gent
Heat transfer is a physical process in which energy is exchanged. It occurs in numerous applications, such as production of electricity, building climatisation, food preparation,... Since energy consumption has increased tremendously in the last decades and this trend will continue, the concept of energy efficiency has become omnipresent. In electronics miniaturization has become a trend. Desktops, laptops, dvd-players, mp3-players, ...
Longitudinal and cross-sectional factors associated with long-term clinical course in functional dyspepsia Vrije Universiteit Brussel KU Leuven
OBJECTIVES: Functional dyspepsia (FD) is a heterogeneous disorder with different pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the symptom pattern, but little is known about its clinical course. The aims of this study were to study the long-term evolution of symptoms in a clinical FD population and to identify factors associated with outcome.
METHODS: FD patients who previously underwent gastric function testing and filled out a dyspepsia ...
An anonymised longitudinal GPS location dataset to understand changes in activity-travel behaviour between pre- and post-COVID periods Universiteit Hasselt
Collecting GPS data using mobile devices is essential to understanding human mobility. However, getting this type of data is tricky because of some specific features of mo-bile operating systems, the high-power consumption of mo-bile devices, and users' privacy concerns. Therefore, data of this kind are rarely publicly available for scientific purposes, while private companies that own the data are often reluc-tant to share it. Here we present a ...
Longitudinal study on the association between cardiorespiratory fitness, anthropometric parameters and blood lipids Vrije Universiteit Brussel Universiteit Gent KU Leuven
Background: Longitudinal evidence concerning the association between cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and blood lipids and between anthropometric parameters (ANTP) and blood lipids is limited. This study aimed to investigate the association between changes in CRF and ANTP and changes in blood lipids.
Methods: In 2002-2004 and 2012-2014 652 participants were tested. CRF was measured as VO2peak using a maximal ergometer test. Waist ...

The mediational role of motivation in the model of motor development in childhood : a longitudinal study Universiteit Gent
The aim of this study was twofold: first, to examine the stability of the hypothesized conceptual model of motor development (without and with including various types of motivation) when children are followed up one-year later, and second to examine longitudinally whether changes in one model variable predict changes in other variables, according to the hypothesized pathways in the model. A sample of 361 Spanish students (50.7% girls, 8-11 years ...
Longitudinal Trend Monitoring of Multiple Sclerosis Ambulation Using Smartphones KU Leuven
Goal: Smartphone and wearable devices may act as powerful tools to remotely monitor physical function in people with neurodegenerative and autoimmune diseases from out-of-clinic environments. Detection of progression onset or worsening of symptoms is especially important in people living with multiple sclerosis (PwMS) in order to enable optimally adapted therapeutic strategies. MS symptoms typically follow subtle and fluctuating disease courses, ...
Assessing high-stakes assumptions. A longitudinal mixed-methods study of university entrance language tests, and of the policy that relies on them. KU Leuven
Scientific summary In Flanders, Belgium, most international L2 students are required to pass a B2 Dutch language test before they can enroll at university. Students who spent the final two years of secondary school in Flanders are exempt from this requirement. The two main tests used in the international L2 admission policy, are ITNA and STRT. Even though these tests are used for the same purpose, they differ substantially in operationalization. ...
