National Approach

Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) take a major human toll on society and reduce public confidence in the healthcare system. The current convergence of scientific, public, and legislative interest in reducing rates of HAI can provide the necessary momentum to address and answer important questions in HAI research. This position paper outlines priorities for a national approach to HAIs: scrutinizing the science base, developing a prioritized research agenda, conducting studies that address the questions that have been identified, creating and deploying guidelines that are based on the outcomes of these studies, and then initiating new studies that assess the efficacy of the interventions.

Broad Overview

Abstract Background: Several studies show that the absence behavior of co-workers’ influence the absence rates of individual group members so that an employee is more likely to be absent when co-workers are often absent. To our knowledge, there are no systematic scoping reviews or other reviews on the concept of sickness absence culture. The objective of this review is to identify and map existing literature on sickness absence culture. We will also investigate what methods and designs are used.Methods: We will be conducting a systematic scoping review with the aim of getting a broad overview of the preexisting literature. This scoping review will consider any publication on sickness absence culture in the field of human sciences, including also reviews, original research, and opinion pieces. The review will be conducted in accordance with the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology for scoping reviews and a populated PRISMA-P checklist (Additional file 1). Two reviewers will independently screen all abstracts for inclusion. We will search the electronic databases: MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO, Clarivate Web of Science, BASE and CINAHL. We will use Covidence for data screening and extraction. The final stage will include a narrative synthesis of the data.Discussion: The results of this scoping review will contribute to identifying and mapping the existing literature on sickness absence culture, which could facilitate future research on the topic. Systematic review registration: Not registered in publicly accessible registry.

Over the last decade, interoperability appeared as a key enabler towards unlocking the full potential of enterprises, products, processes, and systems. With methods to support their lifecycle, contributing towards removing communication barriers, and fostering a new-networked business culture in industrial domains, Enterprise Interoperability (EI) requires tangible scientific foundations. This chapter recognizes that, in terms of content, any scientific field exists in an ecosystem of neighboring domains and presents a methodology to identify EI's relationship with its neighbors, thus supporting the foundations of EI Science Base (EISB). It can be agreed that formalisms like logic and mathematics are an integrant part of every science, but others also share relationships such as application fields' boundaries, methodologies, techniques, or even tools. With the support of the European Commission, through the Future Internet and Enterprise Systems (FInES) cluster of research projects, the authors have initiated an analysis of comprehensive domains (e.g. complexity and software).

The Star Centre is a national astronomy and space science base whichfacilitates public access to news and informationpromotes public awareness, interest, enjoyment and understanding.The Star Centre meets these twin aims by providing an information service which can be accessed in a variety of ways and by offering a menu of public observing events.The concept of a national astronomy base developed as part of the Centre for Science Educations growing portfolio of initiatives in both the formal education sector and the wider umbrella of the Public Understanding of Science. In December 1996 the Star Centre was launched with the aid of a Royal Society COPUS development grant and matching funding from Sheffield Hallam University.
