A first hypothesis is that an advanced quality improvement program (AQIP) significantly improves clinical outcomes in persons with type 2 diabetes compared to a usual quality improvement program (UQIP). The second hypothesis is that persons with…
We hypothesize that membrane-residing gangliosides are elevated in obese insulin resistant subjects and correlate to peripheral insulin resistance. Furthermore, we hypothesize that the perturbation of the insulin signaling cascade by elevated…
We hypothesize that children who will follow this structured functional PRE strength training program will increase in muscle strength, which accordingly will lead to functional improvement in physical functioning, but with no negative effect…
The objective of this study is to investigate whether thoracic radiotherapy can improve 1year survival in …
A physical reactivation program is more effective in improving physical activity behaviour, quality of life, diabetic parameters and psychosocial well being than usual care in type-2 diabetic patients.
We hypothesized that FFA loading could impair mitochondrial function and that the potency of FFA to disturb mitochondrial function and glucose uptake would depend on the degree of desaturation of the fatty acids infused.
To demonstrate equivalency of the Cardica ™ C - Port xA anastomosis compared to hand sutured anastomoses in patients undergoing CABG with respect to 12 months patency at distal anastomosis site.
We hypothesize that oral glucose intake and consequently the endogenous induced hyperinsulinemia will lead to insulin-induced microvascular dilatation in healthy normotensive subjects. Furthermore, we suggest that the insulin-mediated microvascular…
A 7-day course of antibiotic treatment is non-inferior to a 14-day course in febrile urinary tract infection.
Ho: the life birth rate in patients after SET with only morphological embryo selection is equal to patients with metabolomic profiling added to morphological selection. H1: the life birth rate in patients after SET with only morphological embryo…
The rate of unintended events and avoidable harm for elderly hip fracture patients can be reduced by the introduction of three integrated interventions directed at the structure of the handover process, the role of the patient in the care process…
Objective of the study is to assess the effects of home automation on client satisfaction with services, functioning, fulfillment of needs for care, quality of life, and service contacts.
Structural imaging is more sensitive to early (progression) detection than functional measurements (i.e. visual fields).
What is the effect of carbohydrate infusion on food choice, food intake, satiety, hormones, dependent on the time of day and segment of the small intestine?
rTMS suppresses neural circuits using a pulsed magnetic field which temporarily excites or inhibits a certain brain area. It is thought that tinnitus is generated in the brain as a result of functional reorganization of auditory neural pathways and…
The objective of this clinical study is to endorse the hypothesis that oxygenators with a relatively high compliance and relatively low hydraulic resistance enable better pulse conductance than relatively stiff oxygenators featuring relatively high…
The hypothesis is that stratification of the referred population by the two referring screening radiologists using a validated design (BI-RADS, screening variant) can lead to a fast track workflow with only imaging tools, which would enable us to…
Endoveneus laser treatment op the small saphenous vein is compareble to crossectomy with regard to recurrence and therapy failure.
Patients with moderate to severe COPD, CHF or CRF have been shown to suffer from exercise intolerance, muscle weakness and abnormal changes in body composition, irrespective of the degree of primary organ failure. Therefore, it seems reasonable to…
High-intensity stress reduces cognitive performance (visuo-spatial learning) both for immediate and delayed recall.
