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…
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
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…
This is an exploratory study to further delineate the microenvironment of the PT and (S)LNs in cervical cancer.
We hypothesize that patients with craniopharyngioma and hypothalamic obesity have less efficacy of bariatric surgery compared to controls from a 'general' obese population
Prior studies have shown reagent dependent differences in sensitivity to circulating clotting factor VII (FVII). This reagent dependent sensitivity to FVII can explain the INR differences between laboratory methods and point-of care devices found in…
Youth at intermediate vocational education (ROC's) show excessive alcohol and drug use, which can have various detrimental consequences. For this vulnerable group of youngsters a targeted, multicomponent plan of attack was developed in…
A reduced peritoneal exposure to glucose and thereby to glucose degradation products will influence the incidence and severity of peritonitis and may modify peritoneal membrane characteristics.
Hypothesis A: We expect a decline in measured musclemass during the initial days of hospital admission, also we do not expect hydrational changes to be of great influence on estimated muscle mass. Hypothesis B: We expect that the time of the day on…
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…
1. To establish in a randomised controlled trial if screening for lung cancer by multi-slice low-dose CT in high risk subjects will lead to a 25% decrease in lung cancer mortality; 2. To estimate the impact of lung cancer screening on health…
The primary objective of this study is to validate MRI as a functional measuring device for directly monitoring gastric emptying in vivo
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).
Performing a standard laboratory package prior to the first visit to the outpatient clinic rather than performing laboratory tests afterwards will lead to a shorter time until the diagnosis has been established.
