Despite appropriate antimicrobial therapy and supportive care, septic shock is still a major cause of mortality and morbidity. Within the last decade, a broad body of evidence suggests a potential role for mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC, a…
Electrical stimulation of the sympathetic pathways by cervical spinal cord stimulation increases cerebral blood flow.
Peer assessment, as a educational guideline implementation strategy, results in more improvement of evidence based reasoning than case based discussion.
We expect that irrational thoughts and maladaptive coping strategies will be positively changed. As a consequence of this intervention, there should be a significant decrease of: 1. The amount of cyber bullying victims; 2. The psychosocial problems…
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.
3D information from CT and MRI can be used as gold standard on the quantity to be computed from a mammographic projection image.
We hypothesise that Origo, an experience design concept that supports the woman during labor in a personal and unobtrusive way by providing real-time breathing support and visualizing progress of labor, will enhance the woman s labor &…

During treatment with dexamethasone, the deprived mineralocorticoid receptor may cause serious cerebral side effects. Hence, it is feasible that these side effects on mood, behaviour and cognition could be prevented, by an intervention with a…
Background: Injury rate and injury severity of elderly cyclists due to self-induced cycle accidents increase with age. Starting at the age of 55 years, injury risk increases with a factor 4 at the age of 75 years. Injury mechanisms such as slippery…
Combination therapy with telaprevir/ ribavirin is as effective as the current standard of care with peginterferon-alfa/ ribavirin for the treatment of acute Hepatitis C in HIV-infected individuals.
Our hypothesis is that custom made insoles and a home-based exercise program would be superior to a home-based exercise program alone at 12 weeks follow-up.
In adult congenital heart disease patients with exercise-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension, treatment with bosentan lowers the mean pulmonary arterial pressure, which may result in improvement of the cardiopulmonary circulation,…
Is a prevention program, based on principles of health behavior change, education about playing-related musculoskeletal disorders and postural training, more effective in preventing and/ or reducing disabilities from musculoskeletal complaints in…
The hypothesis is that rhGH treatment in children with KS results within 6 weeks in a change of metabolism recognizable as an increase of total energy expenditure (TEE). This change in metabolism can be used as a predictor of growth response in the…
It is hypothesized that a low protamine-to-heparin ratio leads to improved hemostasis after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass as compared to a high ratio as measured by rotational thromboelastometry, and reduces postoperative blood loss…
The hypothesis is, when adolescents are screened for problems at an early stage and do get help, they will be less absent from school and will have less psychosocial problems.
