Health technology assessment (HTA) readiness in Uganda : stakeholder's perceptions on the potential application of HTA to support national universal health coverage efforts

Introduction Health technology assessment (HTA) is an area that remains less implemented in low- and lower middle-income countries. The aim of the study is to understand the perceptions of stakeholders in Uganda toward HTA and its role in decision making, in order to inform its potential implementation in the country. Methods The study takes a cross-sectional mixed methods approach, utilizing an a

Regulating Quantum Computers: Insights into early patterns and trends in academic regulatory conversations on 'Quantum Revolution'

These days, talk of quantum technologies and the coming “quantum revolution” or “quantum leap” is hard to miss. There is a broad agreement that quantum technologies have a high probability of becoming the next disruptive technological development, and the way they should be regulated and the timing of such intervention are issues that are attracting increasing attention. An analysis of how these q

How Can We Teach Philosophy of Science to Biologists?

So, we now have a book on philosophy of science written for biologists, which contains topics that its editors (both of them biologists) thought would be useful. Whereas we hope that many biologists will read it and reflect on philosophy of science, this is not the only role we envisaged for this book. We also believe that the book could be used in courses for biology undergraduates and graduates.

Challenges and opportunities for regenerating lung tissue using three-dimensional lung models

Lung transplantation is currently the only option for patients with end-stage respiratory diseases, but owing to various complications and adverse effects of the treatment in combination with the increasing demand for and limited access to donor organs, new strategies are needed. Recent advances in materials science, culture techniques, cell-phenotyping and isolation techniques, bioreactor enginee

Quality of maternal and newborn care in Switzerland during the COVID-19 pandemic : A cross-sectional study based on WHO quality standards

Objective: To explore quality of maternal and newborn care (QMNC) in healthcare facilities during the COVID-19 pandemic in Switzerland. Methods: Women giving birth in Switzerland answered a validated online questionnaire including 40 WHO standards-based quality measures. QMNC score was calculated according to linguistic region and mode of birth. Differences were assessed using logistic regression

AMSTAR 2 is only partially applicable to systematic reviews of non-intervention studies : a meta-research study

Objectives: A measurement tool to assess systematic reviews 2 (AMSTAR 2) was originally developed for systematic reviews (SRs) of health-care interventions. The aim of this study was to assess the applicability of AMSTAR 2 to SRs of non-intervention studies. Study design and setting: This was a meta-research study. We used 20 SRs for each of the following four types of SRs: Diagnostic Test Accurac

Evaluation of an assessment change project, engaging academics and the role of SoTL.

This study follows on from a network-based assessment redesign project at a Canadian university, to investigate factors relating to academic engagement and sustained implementation. The project was designed with mini-grants, embedded support and a community of practice. Assessment facilitators worked in discipline clusters to achieve mutual goals for assessment reform targeted at authentic develop

Operational Improvements for Startup Time Reduction in Solar Steam Turbines

Solar steam turbines are subject to high thermal stresses as a result of temperature gradients during transient operation, which occurs more frequently due to the variability of the solar resource. In order to increase the flexibility of the turbines while preserving lifting requirements, several operational modifications for maintaining turbine temperatures during offline periods are proposed and
