The Centre for Isotope Research (CIO) at the University of Groningen has operated a radiocarbon (14C) dating laboratory for almost 70 years. In 2017, the CIO received a major upgrade, which involved the relocation of the laboratory to new purpose-built premises, and the installation of a MICADAS accelerator mass spectrometer. This period of transition provides an opportunity to update the laboratory’s routine procedures. This article addresses all of the processes and quality checks the CIO has in place for registering, tracking and pretreating samples for radiocarbon dating. Complementary updates relating to radioisotope measurement and uncertainty propagation will be provided in other forthcoming publications. Here, the intention is to relay all the practical information regarding the chemical preparation of samples, and to provide a concise explanation as to why each step is deemed necessary.

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is endemic worldwide but its seroprevalence varies widely. The goal of this study was to estimate the age-specific seroprevalence of CMV infection in Belgium based on two cross-sectional serological datasets from 2002 and 2006. The seroprevalence was estimated relying on diagnostic test results based on cut-off values pre-specified by the manufacturers of the tests as well as relying on mixture models applied to continuous pathogen-specific immunoglobulin G antibody titre concentrations. The age-specific seroprevalence of hepatitis A virus (HAV), based on three Belgian cross-sectional serological datasets from 1993, 2002 and 2006, was used as a comparator since individuals acquire lifelong immunity upon recovery, implying an increasing seroprevalence with age. The age group weighted overall CMV seroprevalence derived from the mixture model was 32% (95% confidence interval (CI) 31–34%) in 2002 and 31% (95% CI 30–32%) in 2006. We demonstrated that CMV epidemiology differs from the immunizing infection HAV. This was the first large-scale study of CMV and HAV serial datasets in Belgium, estimating seroprevalence specified by age and birth cohort.

Chalcopyrite samples from Mt Isa, Australia have been experimentally shortened by up to 30% at temperatures up to 450°C at a constant confining pressure of 300 (400) MPa, and different strain rates in the range from 10-5 to 10-8 sec-1. After deformation, the X-ray pole figures show a maximum of (220/204) perpendicular to the compression axis for each of the samples, which has already been described for room temperature experiments by Lang (1968). The overlapping pseudocubic peaks of chalcopyrite can be separated into true tetragonal peaks by neutron diffraction texture analysis using a position sensitive detector combined with profile analysis (Will et al., 1989). The five investigated samples each show a combination of two or four main orientations of the crystallites, which represent neither a pseudocubic nor a tetragonal fibre texture.

In this paper we consider an Ornstein–Uhlenbeck (OU) process (M(t))t≥0 whose parameters are determined by an external Markov process (X(t))t≥0 on a finite state space {1, . . ., d}; this process is usually referred to as Markov-modulated Ornstein–Uhlenbeck. We use stochastic integration theory to determine explicit expressions for the mean and variance of M(t). Then we establish a system of partial differential equations (PDEs) for the Laplace transform of M(t) and the state X(t) of the background process, jointly for time epochs t = t1, . . ., tK. Then we use this PDE to set up a recursion that yields all moments of M(t) and its stationary counterpart; we also find an expression for the covariance between M(t) and M(t + u). We then establish a functional central limit theorem for M(t) for the situation that certain parameters of the underlying OU processes are scaled, in combination with the modulating Markov process being accelerated; interestingly, specific scalings lead to drastically different limiting processes. We conclude the paper by considering the situation of a single Markov process modulating multiple OU processes.

Background:
Antipsychotic drugs (APD) are widely prescribed for people with dementia residing in long term care facilities (LTCFs). Concern has been expressed that such prescribing is largely inappropriate. The objective of this study is to examine if differences in facility-level prevalence of APD use in a sample of LTCFs for patients with dementia can be explained by patient and facility-related characteristics.
Methods:A point prevalence study was conducted using data from the VU University Resident Assessment Instrument (VURAI) database from nursing homes and residential care facilities in the Netherlands. Patients were selected who had a diagnosis of dementia. LTCF and patient characteristics were extracted from the VURAI; facility-level resident satisfaction surveys were provided by the National Institute for Public Health.
Results:In total, 20 LTCFs providing care for 1,090 patients with dementia were investigated. Overall, 31% of patients used an APD. In facilities with a high prevalence of APD use behavioral symptoms were present in 62% of their patients. In facilities with medium APD use behavioral problems remained frequent (57%), and in facilities with low prevalence of APD use 54% of the patients had behavioral symptoms. Facilities with a high prevalence of APD use were often large, situated in urban communities, and scored below average on staffing, personal care, and recreational activities.
Conclusions:There was considerable variation between the participating LTCFs in the prevalence of APD use. Variability was related to LTCF characteristics and patient satisfaction. This indicates potential inappropriate prescribing because of differences in institutional prescribing culture.

By building reconstruction models for a case of gastroenteritis in the general population moving through different steps of the surveillance pyramid we estimated that millions of illnesses occur annually in the European population, leading to thousands of hospitalizations. We used data on the healthcare system in seven European Union member states in relation to pathogen characteristics that influence healthcare seeking. Data on healthcare usage were obtained by harmonized cross-sectional surveys. The degree of under-diagnosis and underreporting varied by pathogen and country. Overall, underreporting and under-diagnosis were estimated to be lowest for Germany and Sweden, followed by Denmark, The Netherlands, UK, Italy and Poland. Across all countries, the incidence rate was highest for Campylobacter spp. and Salmonella spp. Incidence estimates resulting from the pyramid reconstruction approach are adjusted for biases due to different surveillance systems and are therefore a better basis for international comparisons than reported data.

It is often said that children have always been working. With the onset of the industrial revolution in the nineteenth century, however, children became to be exploited under miserable circumstances in factories. That was the beginning of the movement against child labour. A worldwide awareness campaign has brought international organizations and governments to the position that child labour should urgently be replaced by child education. The objectives seem simple and laudable but the issues involved are very complex. What actually is child labour, and what is childhood? How many child labourers are there in the world? Is child labour restricted to developing countries or is it frequently used in order to stigmatize the non-Western world? Is regulation of labour conditions the solution or should governments and civil society one opt for a radical ban? Is there a role for corporate social responsibility? These questions have been addressed in the professorial address on Child Labour Studies. It is argued that much more research is needed and that particular care should be taken to learn from children on how they view the world and what they think of work, labour and education.

Summary
I am standing here at the start of a serious task. I need to make it clear to a diverse audience what I am worth, my vision on the contribution of research, the extent to which I command the problem at hand and whether I can place this question within a scientifically sound paradigm. At the same time, I need to ensure that the paradigmatic discourse is comprehensible to all those who are interested in why this issue is being discussed today, and in seeing academic insights translated back into clear and understandable language. An oration was, perhaps, not meant for the latter, but it seems to me that this bonus is fitting under the current need for civil society to get involved in understanding and solving social issues.
Society from the perspective of the child
Why the concern for child labour? I would probably never have become engaged on my own accord. My agenda was much broader. It was, and still is, an agenda that focuses on the macro-story: the story of global inequalities, of political machiavellism, of social discrimination and exclusion, of development assistance and the story of the big narratives, feudalism, capitalism, neo-liberalism and socialism. When I went to India for continuing my studies I saw it all, and my experience there played an important role in my intellectual formation for which I am thankful to the country, my fellow students and my professor gurus of those days.
I learned there what in daily practice of the specific discipline may sometimes be threatened with extinction: the knowledge of the historic, the macro-economic and the sociological context. I once received, upon my arrival in Amsterdam, a postcard of thanks from a student in a far off country with the words that she accredited to me, or to Khalil Gibral, but that I accredited to her: ‘ S/he who doesn't see the part in the whole, doesn't see the whole’. This points to the academic researcher who in the multistructural and multicausal social system must try to make clear the diverse strings of a social phenomenon. It has to do with the explanations that lie beyond the surface, and those explanations, for example for the phenomena of child labour, are of a complex nature. Gathering insights into multi-causality is the work-terrain of the academic.

Background
Sixty-eight patients with seasonal affective disorder participated in a 10 000-lux light treatment study in which two questions were addressed: do response rates differ when the light is applied at different times of the day and does short-term rank ordering of morning and evening light influence response rates?
MethodThree groups of patients received a 4-day light treatment: (I) in the morning (8.00–8.30 a.m., n = 14), (II) in the afternoon (1.00–1.30 p.m., n = 15) or (III) in the evening (8.00–8.30 p.m., n = 12). Two additional groups of patients received two days of morning light treatment followed by two days of evening light (IV, n = 13) or vice versa (V, n = 14).
ResultsResponse rates for groups I, II and III were 69, 57 and 80% respectively, with no significant differences between them. Response rates for groups IV and V were 67 and 50% respectively; this difference was not significant and these percentages did not differ significantly from those of groups I and III.
ConclusionsThe results indicate that the timing of light treatment is not critical and that short-term rank ordering of morning and evening light does not influence therapeutic outcome.
