In Den Haag verblijven zo’n 3.000 Oekraïense ontheemden in de gemeentelijke en particuliere opvang. In dit onderzoek is onderzocht op welke wijze(n) Oekraïense vluchtelingen erin slagen hun weg te vinden in de Haagse samenleving, wat daarbij de rol is van (in-)formele netwerken en wat hun toekomstplannen en verwachtingen zijn. Hiervoor hebben we interviewgesprekken gevoerd met Oekraïense ontheemden en met Nederlandse gastgezinnen die Oekraïners in huis hebben (gehad). Het veldwerk vond plaats van januari tot mei 2023.
The objective of this study was to assess relationships between children's physical environment and afterschool leisure time physical activity (PA) and active transport. Methods: Children aged 10-12 years participated in a 7-day accelerometer and Global Positioning Systems (GPS) protocol. Afterschool leisure time PA and active transport were identified based on locationand speed-algorithms based on accelerometer, GPS and Geospatial Information Systems (GIS) data. We operationalized children's exposure to the environment by combining home, school and the daily transport environment in individualized daily activity-spaces. Results: In total, 255 children from 20 Dutch primary schools from suburban areas provided valid data. This study showed that greenspaces and smaller distances from the children's home to school were associated with afterschool leisure time PA and walking. Greater distances between home and school, as well as pedestrian infrastructure were associated with increased cycling. Conclusion: We demonstrated associations between environments and afterschool PA within several behavioral contexts. Future studies are encouraged to target specific behavioral domains and to develop natural experiments based on interactions between several types of the environment, child characteristics and potential socio-cognitive processes.

To compare comfort‐related outcomes when wearing rigid gas permeable (RGP) contact lenses made of two different materials and using two cleaning regimes. In a double‐masked lens material cross‐over study, subjects (n = 28 who completed the study) were refitted with new lenses made from (A) Boston XO material in one eye and made from (B) ONSI‐56 material in the other eye. The lenses made from materials A and B were worn on the right eye and the left eye following the pattern AB–BA–AB (or vice versa) during the first, second, and third 5 week trial periods respectively. Miraflow cleaner (1st and 2nd period) was replaced by Boston Advance cleaner in the 3rd period. Comfort‐related outcomes were assessed by a numerical rating scale (NRS) after each period. Subjects rated six comfort‐related factors: satisfaction, sharpness of vision, end of day comfort, maximum comfortable wearing time, maximum wearing time and foreign body feeling. Additionally we obtained subjects’ preferences for type of lens and lens cleaner during an exit interview. The sessile drop method was used to measure static contact angles.
