We hypothesized that forming implementation intentions may increase levels of physical activity.
Because little is known on the effective and safe dosage of propofol when used for control of intracranial pressure in head-injured patients, propofol blood and cerebrospinal fluid concentrations and pharmacodynamics are characterized in order to…
1. The intervention group will have a lower BMI/waist circumference, compared to the control group at follow-up; 2. The intervention group will have more favourable outcomes on the targeted behaviours, compared to the control group at follow-up; 3.…
The optimal management of locoregionally advanced NSCLC is evolving. Multimodality treatment is rapidly becoming the most common approach to stage III NSCLC. ASCO guidelines recommend initial chemotherapy (platinum-based, 2 or 3 cycles) combined…

Cinacalcet is able to control hypercalciemia due to hyperparathyreoidism after renal transplantation ergo avoiding surgical removal of parathyroidtissue without jeopardizing renal function or eliciting serious adverse events.
Non-inferiority hypothesis: observation is not inferior to operation with respect to the mean of pain and discomfort during 3 years follow-up.
We hypothesize that the use of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) reduces the incidence of (air) microembolism during aortic arch surgery, and that it also positively influences the gross neurologic and/or the neurocognitive outcome of this kind of surgery.

Children born small for gestational age (SGA) might be at increased risk for developing hypertension, cardiovascular disease and diabetes mellitus type 2. It has been shown that those SGA children with relatively higher GH levels during an overnight…
urge incontinence is caused by overactivity of the detrusor muscle of the urinary bladder. Electrical stimulation of the pelvic floor muscles can suppress detrusor overactivity. The miniaturo tm-i system is designed to deliver mild electrical…
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.
HIV infected patients receiving HAART have an increased risk for cardiac events/disease. In HAART naive patients increased arterial stiffness is substrate for this higher risk. In this study we investigate whether increased risk for cardiac events…
Based on studies in other types of cancer in humans where beneficial effects were obtained, and based on our pre-clinical data in a mouse model for malignant mesothelioma (MM), it now seems feasible and warranted to introduce dendritic cell (DC)-…
The prevalence of Growth Hormone Deficiency in Autoimmune Thyroid Disease is higher than in the general population
Patients with Familial Hypobetalipoproteinemia (FHBL) could have increased hepatic glucose production because of hepatic steatosis. Additionally, peripheral insulin sensitivity could be enhanced since these patients have lower concentrations of…
