We postulate that exhaled molecular profiling obtained from ‘breathprints’ by electronic nose: 1. Is associated with the level of asthma control and; 2. Is associated with an inflammatory profile in induced sputum and blood in steroiddependent…
Part A: In clinical practice the use of simplified quantitative methods and procedures can be fully validated against complex quantitative kinetic measures. Part B: Test-retest repetability of different SUV measures, metabolic and anatomic volume…
Our first hypothesis is that in the two exisiting case management models, the persons with dementia will have less behaviour and mood problems than persons receiving usual care and informal caregivers experience better mental health compared to…

Near-infrared fluorescent imaging can accurately detect neuroendocrine tumors non-invasively during surgical procedures.
B cells play a role in multiple sclerosis, not only by production of autoantibodies but also by presentation of (auto)antigens to autoreactive T cells.
The hypothesis is that all patients with rising RT-qPCR MRD levels of specific genetic markers in pediatric AML patients in CR1 invariably will develop overt clinical relapse.
To quantify health risks in relation to preventive actions and consequences of illness related to travel in immigrant and non-immigrant immunocompromised travellers treated with MTX and/or anti-TNF-alpha monoclonals, imuran or rituximab.
