PD-L1 is up to now the only marker that has been validated for the selection of patients treated for non-small cell lung cancer who might benefit from the treatment with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors. Thus far, PD-L1 status is assessed with histology, being…
a. Ascorbic acid in combination with metformin (500mg BD) improve the glucose tolerance with a daily dose of 500mg over a period of 12 months. b. Ascorbic acid with metformin reduce the adverse effects/events. c. Acetylesalicylic acid in…
We hypothesize that TIPS placement has an significant effect on drug metabolism and bile acid metabolism.
We hypothesize that a minimally invasive approach during the first relaparotomy for pancreatic fistula is associated less mortality. Due to the retrospective design results should be interpreted with caution. Possibly there still are specific…

Firstly, we hypothesise that Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for diabetes patients will reduce depressive symptoms and will increase diabetes self-care behaviour. Furthermore, we explore the underlying operating mechanisms of ACT. We…
Blue Light Imaging (BLI) and Linked Color Imaging (LCI) have additional value for the visualization of Barrett's neoplasia, when compared to White Light Endoscopy (WLE).

Vitamin D plays an integral role in calcium and phosphorus homeostasis. A low vitamin D status can occur as a result of reduced synthesis due to lack of sun exposure, decreased intake or absorption, increased hepatic catabolism, or decreased…
Short-term (1-year) results of renal transplantation are now excellent (over 95%). Long-term (10-year and longer) results are, however, still disappointing. Where most research has focused on immunosuppression and infections, we hypothesize that due…
Deep neuromuscular block has advantages over a moderate neuromuscular block in term of outcome (pain, respiration) but has otherwise no effects on the patient
We hypothesise that glaucoma patients with non-overlapping visual field defects have poorer binocular visual performance while performing complex visual tasks than would be predicted from their visual field. Knowledge on this topic is highly…
Early mobilisation, i.e. 6 hours after vascular closure after TF-AVI procedure, will maximize comfort, lower pain complaints, lower infection rate and raise overall patient wellbeing after TAVI-procedure without extreme increase in vascular…
It is safe and feasible to use the Con-Cord table for the ABC approach for stabilisation of preterm infants at birth.
