Maternal and neonatal vitamin D level play a role on dental development in childhood
Knee OA is characterized by the presence of crepitus (knee sounds). Therefore, this device is able to record these sounds, while the subject is doing a knee movement, and screen for the presence or absence of osteoarthritis.
To investigate whether patients prefer to be approached by mailed questionnaires for annual follow-up assessment after PCI procedures versus telephone interviews or email-based follow-up
Low-molecular-weight heparins (LMWHs) are frequently used in the prophylaxis and therapy of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and the prophylaxis of arterial thromboembolism. LMWHs are mainly excreted by the kidneys and may accumulate in patients with…
We postulate that the increased cardiovascular risk in ANCA-associated vasculitis can be explained by both traditional and disease related risk factors
Onlay and sublay mesh reinforcement after midline laparotomies in patients with an increased risk for the development of incisional hernias (IHs) resulted in less IHs compared to patients that received the conventional closure technique at two years…
The primary objective of this study is to validate MRI as a functional measuring device for directly monitoring gastric emptying in vivo
The goal of this exploratory study is to directly compare quantitative enhancement parameters (the contrast agent kinetics) between 1.0 molar Gadobutrol with and without the utilisation of a Computer Aided Detection system (CAD) in patients with…
Hypothesis A: We expect a decline in measured musclemass during the initial days of hospital admission, also we do not expect hydrational changes to be of great influence on estimated muscle mass. Hypothesis B: We expect that the time of the day on…
The eNose is able to differentiate between BE patients with dysplastic or neoplastic lesions and patients with NDBE
We hypothesize that socioeconomic inequalities in diet quality are partly explained by differential dietary costs.
Structured cultural sensitive pre-Ramadan education helps people with diabetes who choose to participate in Ramadan fasting to experience a safer Ramadan period. Pre-Ramadan education reduces the risk of acute complications such as hypoglycemia. The…
For cochlear implanted (CI) patients speech recognition in noise still remains one of the most challenging tasks. One way to improve performance in noise is to benefit from binaural hearing (hearing with two ears). For individuals with residual…
We hypothesize that storytelling (in the form of a sub-plot), concerning the effects of (un)healthy lifestyle on heart risk, in a popular Dutch TV show for children can cause sustainable positive lifestyle change. Furthermore, we hypothesize that…
HbA1c is still considered to be the most reliable indicator of the average blood glucose concentration over a longer period of time and therefore used as a guide for treatment of patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). But, HbA1c levels are influenced…
Body weight has an effect at the trough concentrations of DOACs in patients.
The adherence of NOACs in atrial fibrillation in specific subgroups is low. Identifying these non-adherent patients in daily clinical practice is important to minimise stroke and bleeding risk. We hypothesize that NOACs are relatively often…
