It was hypothesized that comparing the course of uveitis of individual eyes with respect to inflammatory activity and visual acuity (VA), and the impact of particular therapies, to already available data about course and outcome from other patients…
Phenylalanine supplementation can result in higher phenylalanine concentrations without causes tyrosine concentrations to rise too much
The application of Purastat on the woundsurface will be feasible and safe.
The Dutch version of the Breakthrough pain Assessment Tool (BAT) is a valid and reliable questionnaire to measure differences in breakthrough pain in patients with cancer
Antibiotics are over-prescribed for lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) in nursing home (NH) residents due to diagnostic uncertainty. Inappropriate antibiotic use is undesirable both on patient level, considering their exposure to side-effects…
The Eleveld propofol PKPD model allows administration of propofol by use of target controlled infusion (TCI) in a broad population (children-adults-elderly-lean-obese).
The study goal is to add the TSR to current routine pathology diagnosis next to the TNM classification.
The literature indicates that a minimal endoxifen concentration of 16 nmol/L is needed to produce a therapeutic effect. This implies that the endoxifen levels in individual patients must stay above this threshold throughout the entire treatment…
PVAT plays an important role in driving vascular ageing manifested by medial smooth muscle cell (SMC) dedifferentiation into an osteogenic phenotype that induces intimal and/or medial calcification. I furthermore hypothesize that this process of…
Because the aim of this observational study is to obtain insight in the nutrient and fluid intake, and nutrient and biomarker concentrations in the blood in patients with ischemic stroke, the focus will be on descriptive statistics and there will be…
The primary hypotheses of the study are: 1) High perceived daily stress, emotion dysregulation, and low mood at baseline predict higher drop-out, higher no-show, and poorer treatment outcome of Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET) (i.e., less PTSD…
The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of EBRT versus SEMS insertion for palliation of dysphagia symptoms in patients with esophageal cancer
1) To establish the prevalence and characteristics of dysphagia in hospitalized patients 2) To establish the relation between clinical dysphagia and sEMG characteristics
It is hypothesized that an online mindful parenting training for mothers with a toddler will be an effective intervention that will help in improving parental stress. It is additionally hypothesized that the online mindful parenting training is a…
Relative interleukin-6 (IL-6) thresholds (% increase from baseline within 24 hours and % decrease from the peak postoperative value) may predict infectious and non-infectious complications after pulmonary surgery better than perioperative levels of…
A bladder sparing approach results in comparable disease free survival, overall survival with less toxicity, less costs and a high functional bladder preservation rate compared to a radical cystectomy.
We expect to make recommendations in choosing between the PSFS or PSFS-D answering option and to describe important items from a patient's perspective regarding relevance, comprehensiveness and comprehensibility. We expect high correlation…
The aerobic pre-conditioning will increase muscle perfusion and thereby improve muscle hypertrophy during the subsequent resistance training program.
A personal health record (PHR)* is a practical, responsible and patient friendly tool to assist in the proces of recontacting in clinical genetics. * PGO in Dutch. In English I've used the term PHR or the broader term webapplication.
