Two principal findings are that the evolution of new policies has been accompanied by more difficult challenges in their planning and evaluation and that this indicates the need to improve the theoretical frameworks for policy formulation.
In particular, comparison is made between numerical results and some analytical prediction formulae available for fatigue damage evaluation; amongst all expressions, a new proposed original approach is shown to give sound theoretical framework and improved results.
Objective To test the effectiveness of a complex intervention designed, within a theoretical framework, to improve outcomes for patients with coronary heart disease.
Besides reporting the factors influencing the pathway implementation and giving practical implications how to improve pathway implementation, we proposed a theoretical framework by arranging the findings in a multidimensional model and thereby add innovative aspects to the already existing implementation research.
In addition, ways to improve the interventions are suggested (adjusting the interventions to solid theoretical frameworks, improving their designs, and assessing treatment implementation).
By clarifying the role of lateral signals in lineage conversion, this new theoretical framework may contribute to improving strategies of microenvironment- induced transdifferentiation in general and to β-cell neogenesis in particular.
A better understanding of these key factors would ensure that intervention strategies to improve gait speed are based on a valid theoretical framework.
The work we present here not only improves on secondary structure prediction, but also our theoretical framework for modelling higher order interactions in proteins opens up a way forward for the advancement of protein sequence analysis in general.
Using concept mapping with Dutch experts, a theoretical framework was developed for assessing and improving the quality of regional public health reporting in The Netherlands.
