What is the prevalence of dysplasia or carcinoma in patients with Crohn's disease that undergo surveillance endoscopy with chromoendoscopy-guided confocal laser endomicroscopy?
Propofol does not change accuracy of pulse contour cardiac output measurements
We hypothesize that, with increased arm abduction moment loading with a constant exerted abduction force, primary arm moment generators (deltoid muscle) will have a greater increase in activation (EMG) as compared to primary arm/glenohumeral…
By developing a model which predicts the risk of bleeding with coumarin use, patients can be treated more effectively, potentially avoiding the need for specific antidotes. Besides decreasing the risk of bleeding (potentially resulting in less…
Type 2 diabetes is cause by progressive beta-cell dysfunction against a background of obesity and insulin resistance in susceptible individuals. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) gamma-mediated mechanisms are involved in the…
Independently of their lipid lowering effects statins have been shown to quench markers of vascular inflammation. In an observational study we observed a mild but dose dependent anti -inflammatory effect of intermediate dose statins on vascular…
Is it possible / desirable to move Orencia treatment from the hospital to the home situation?
Comparison of two new techniques for detection of small bowel pathology: MR enteroclysis and videocapsule enteroscopy with double-balloon enteroscopy with respect to diagnostic yield, accuracy of findings, and patient preference.
To evaluate variations of androgenicity and androgen (re) activity in (apparently) eugonadal women by using CAG repeat length polymorphism ([CAG]n) of the androgen receptor, free testosterone levels, 2D:4D ratio and attention for erotic stimuli (…
Our hypothesis is that the iron status in young healthy children from the Netherlands might be insufficient.
The present study is a feasibility study. In this study we will test the feasibility of the procedures used, the compliance to the interventions, and the usefulness of intermediate outcome measures in a specific high risk group. If the results of…
Maintenance thalidomide delays the time to progression with 50% in patients who do not progress after > 3 cycles of pemetrexed containing chemotherapy.
(Short) stay and, if possible, treatment at the PMU, will give an improvement in regular psychometrics or at least in some of them.
Our hypothesis is to improve the time of dysphagia-free interval when compared to treatment with brachytherapy alone.
In this study we will evalute the potention of HistoScanning guided biopsy to increase the detection rate of prostate cancer.
In the current study we aim to establish whether TNF-alpha plays a central role in inflammation-mediated acceleration of atherogenesis and the propencity towards development of atherothrombotic disease in RA.
The aim of this programm is to stimulate people to follow the medical instructions and therefore to optimise the rehabilitation process and the bonehealing. In this project a prototypes was fabricated and will be used in twenty patients with a…
We expect that there will be a restrictive condition in the first place. After a longer period there may be an obstructive condition, due to the original infection. We expect that the leucocyte count of the pleural fluid, the number of loculations…
It is hypothesized that increased prenatal exposure to Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) is related to an increased risk of obesity later in life.
To demonstrate superiority over time in treatment of pain of best medical practice with adjunctive SCS Therapy compared to best medical practice without SCS Therapy in patients with chronic diabetic neuropathic pain as measured by VAS score.
