Purpose of Review Although gaming disorder (GD) is prevalent during adolescence and group-based interventions (GBIs) prove highly beneficial for substance use disorders, much remains unknown regarding their utility for addressing problematic gaming (PG) and GD. This systematic review thus explores the potential value of GBIs for adolescents with PG...

Life Cycle Sustainability Assessment (LCSA) is a recognised methodology for analyzing and communicating the sustainability of product systems. However, the fragmented analysis of the environmental, social and economic dimensions of sustainability remains an obstacle to its wider application. In addition, the increasing demand for raw materials lead...

In recent years, there has been growing interest in harnessing anaerobic digestion technology for resource recovery from waste streams. This approach has evolved beyond its traditional role in energy generation to encompass the production of valuable carboxylic acids, especially volatile fatty acids (VFAs) like acetic acid, propionic acid, and buty...

Recovering extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) from waste granular sludge offers a cost-effective and sustainable approach for transforming wastewater resources into industrially valuable products. Yet, the application potential of these EPS in real-world scenarios, particularly in paper manufacturing, remains underexplored. Here we show the f...

Purpose: The aim of this study was to characterize W' recovery kinetics in response to a partial W' depletion. We hypothesized that W' recovery following partial depletion would be better described by a biexponential than by a monoexponential model. Methods: Nine healthy men performed a ramp incremental exercise test, three to five constant load tr...

Transport and selectivity parameters describe the quantity and purity of nutrients and volatile fatty acids (VFAs) separated from fermentation media. However, the complexity of fermentation media and low nutrient concentrations hinder the optimal conditions of such parameters. Exploring technologies to overcome such limitations is crucial for selec...

The cultural and social benefits of green open spaces (GOSs) are frequently disregarded in environmental planning and policy. The online PPGIS tool, mygreenplace.be, was used to map the cultural ecosystem services (CES) in the GOSs along the Woluwe River. This research aims to clarify the role of CES, spatial qualities and travel distance in GOSs' ...

Purpose of ReviewIn this scoping review, we examined sex as a substitute addiction for other substance or behavioral addictions, with a particular emphasis on how it has been defined, has presented clinically, the samples and contexts studied, and the methods used. Various types of sexual behaviors were included (e.g., voyeurism, and pornography us...

Stuttering is a speech disorder in which the flow of speech is disrupted by involuntary repetitions of sounds, syllables, words or phrases, stretched sounds or silent pauses in which the person is unable to produce sounds and sound transitions. Treatment success is the highest if stuttering is treated before the age of 6 years, before it develops i...
