This article presents the results of a qualitative study on the ethical aspects of inclusion practice for radiotherapy patients taking part in clinical research. The study focused on the standards and values of this process. Patients and physicians were interviewed about their views and experiences. Analysis of these interviews showed that candidate research participants need better protection from unwanted factors that could influence their choice about participation. Researchers need proper education about regulation, codes and directives in the field of research ethics, and they should be aware of the underlying ethical concepts of these regulations. A sound institutional ethics policy is necessary in order to guide medical staff in decisions about the inclusion of patients in trials.
Korteketenproducten bereiken via allerlei kanalen de consument, want veel foodservice-en foodretailbedrijven hebben een korteketenbeleid. In dit onderzoek wordt het marktaandeel korteketenproducten geschat, het korteketenbeleid van bedrijven geanalyseerd en beschreven wat belemmeringen en handelingsperspectieven zijn om het marktaandeel korte ketens te vergroten. Trefwoorden: korte keten, marktaandeel, korteketenbeleid, handelingsperspectieven Dit rapport is gratis te downloaden op https://doi.org/10.18174/541251 of op www.wur.nl/economicresearch (onder Wageningen Economic Research publicaties).
Despite its health benefits, vegetable consumption in Sub-Saharan Africa is below recommended levels. This report is part of a larger project, aiming to pilot and scale innovative approaches within the food systems of Benin, Mali and Burkina Faso to improve consumption of safe vegetables. The aim of this report is to obtain insights into the vegetable consumption behaviour of urban consumers in Benin. For this purpose, a literature review was conducted. Results were reviewed and validated by relevant experts in the field of nutrition, health, and food safety in Benin. This was important as most relevant literature referred to the larger context of West Africa. This report describes the results for Benin and identifies potential entry points for enhancing the consumption of safe vegetables.
