Submucosal irrigation with the Gum Irrigator will reduce bleeding on probing, pocketdepts and the amount of anearobic bacteria in the non-surgical treatment of peri-implantitis.
Rates of neuropsychiatric symptoms are extremely high in institutionalized people with young-onset dementia. Neuropsychiatric symptoms are associated with reduced quality of life of residents and higher caregiver burden. Therefore, the Grip care…
MRI is a feasible, fast and safe technique for the long term follow up of neonatal and pediatric patient with bronchopulmonary dysplasia.
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…
More than in any other field, the nature of healthcare, makes that the consequences of human error can take an immense size. Increasingly, people state that complaints and claims in healthcare increase and accrue. Nevertheless, recent research into…
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…
The objectives of this pilot are (1) to test and develop an experimental setup to determine contrast sensitivity, visual field and adaptation time at high light conditions. (2) To perform a pilot study with 10 healthy subject.
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…

1. The primary objective of this study is to investigate whether nocebo effects on cowhage-evoked itch can be induced by verbal suggestion. We hypothesize that the verbal suggestion that the solution applied is an ‘itch solution’ will induce higher…
Stimulation of the right DLPFC of alcohol dependent patients will decrease self-reported craving and recude relapse rates. Furthermore it will increase behavioral control and normalize brain activation patterns.
PPIs are prescribed very frequently and might cause potentially severe hypomagnesaemia. We carried out a study focussing on the prevalence of hypomagnesaemia in geriatric inpatients using PPI and evaluated risk factors contributing to this effect.…
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…
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…
Post-operative rehabilitation consisting of physiotherapy and solution focused therapy will reduce fatigue, improve quality of life and inrease muscle mass in surgically treated HPB patients.
