Sex differences in renal physiology is a vastly understudied area, despite known differences in sex-specific rates of chronic kidney disease. Renal function decline is accelerated in men compared to women, suggesting a potential harmful role for…
From survey studies it is suggested that patient preference and satisfaction will be in favour of oral JAK inhibitors over parenteral biologics. 5,6,7 We want to establish the treatment preference of patients with active RA and compare the treatment…

Adolescents with emotion regulation problems who followed the Emotion Regulation Training will show improvement on the following items: 1. Symptoms of emotional dysregulation; 2. Positive and negative coping behaviour; 3. Stress symptoms in the…
The analysis of protease activity from saliva and the salivary biofilm, using these substrates, may provide a new layer of information useful in the discovery of prognostic markers with respect and related to the histopathological features of oral…

Treatment of greenstick forearm fractures with bandages, as compared to cast therapy, will lead to a decrease of discomfort and no increase of pain complaints.
We aim to compare the accuracy of ultrasound derived blood flow parameters from the carotid artery to pulse-contour derived cardiac output and non-invasive cardiac output measurements. Our motivation is to develop a non-invasive, radiation-free,…

1. What are the effects of a minimal intervention given by a nurse and a more intensive psychological intervention on managing fatigue during active treatment of cancer compared to no intervention? Will a minimal intervention be sufficient or is a…
We hypothesize that the UC Diet (UCD) can improve induction of remission rates when administered with a 5ASA regimen to pediatric patients with mild-moderate UC vs. 5ASA regimen alone.
We hypothesize that higher levels of pro-inflammatory macrophages in pregnancy are related to early placental developmental defects (i.e. decreased trophoblast invasion and SA development) or inflammation and oxidative stress later in gestation,…
