Pyridostigmine will activate the parasympathetic cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway and therefore reduce inflammatory signs and symptoms in patients with complex regional pain syndrome.
This study will test the hypothesis that Sevoflurane attenuates oxidative damage, complement, enothelial, thrombocyt and neutrophil activation and inflammation to human ischemia reperfusion injury of the myocardium.
Orthomanual treatment is of additional value in the painclinic treatment of chronic low back pain.
The following research questions will be determined: 1. What is the effect of an nutritional intervention compared to usual care in undernourished patients of 65 years in general practice or using home care? 2. What is the cost effectiveness of an…
1. Prosthetic valve characteristics (type; location; size resulting in the presence/absence of PPM) are related to functional outcome and quality of life; 2. The incidence/spectrum of prosthetic valve-related complications in adults with CHD differs…
Better guided resection of brain areas that are, regarding network characteristics, important for seizure onset and propagation may result in improved clinical outcome. However, before such guidance is possible, more insight into the effects of…
The aim of this study is to assess barriers and facilitators of implementation of external cephalic version in The Netherlands, and to develop an innovative implementation strategy based on improved patient counselling and information of health care…

Shoulder pain is related to somatosensory and nociceptive changes in the acute phase after stroke. These changes may indicate the involvement of specific mechanisms (nociceptive, neuropathic) of post-stroke shoulder pain. Changes may either precede…
