The primary objective of this study is to examine the determinants of health behavior intentions and changes in patients with TIA or ischemic stroke, and the effects of age, sex, and cognitive and functional status on these determinants as well as…
To assess the costs and effects of tailoring the duration of elastic compression stocking (ECS) therapy after deep vein thrombosis (DVT) to individual patients needs.
Our objective is to assess whether patients with SM compared to controls have more advanced atherosclerosis assessed by carotid intima-media thickness (C-IMT) and carotid plaques and have a more adverse cardiovascular risk profile.
To examine the impact of walking training on the lifetime risk for cardiovascular disease in DMT2 and DMT1 patients and to assess whether these effects are preserved 3 months after the Nijmegen 4-Day marches. Results will be compared with a control…
Are AGEs, as a predictor of increased risk for cardiometabolic syndrome, increased in shift workers?
The aim of this study is to investigate skin AGEs, as a predictor of increased risk for cardiometabolic syndrome, in a shift work population as compared to non-shift workers to assess its potential as an early assessment of the actual risk for…
