Een klinisch behandelprogramma met een opnameduur van acht weken gevolgd door een intensief vervolgprogramma voor kinderen (8-19 jr.) met ernstige obesitas is kosten effectiever dan een klinische interventie met een opnameduur van zes maanden en…
Fluorescent near-infrared imaging can be used to identify the ureters using a low dose methylene blue.
It is hypothesized that participants who received information about social modeling effects in the intervention group consume less (snack) food compared to participants in the control group.
Our hypothesis is that routine application of elastic stockings after varicose vein surgery is not beneficial with regard to pain- and physical functioning scores, complications, edema formation, time before returning to work and analgesics…
We hypothesize that RPCA is as effective in reducing pain relief scores as EA, with lower costs and easier achievement of 24 hours availability of pain relief for low risk women in labor.
1. Cancer survivors experience more meaning in life after the intervention; 2. Psychological wellbeing in cancer survivors improves after the intervention.
8 weeks after the PRF treatment we expect that the electric quantitative sensory testing (eQST) values are higher compared to the eQST values before the PRF treatment. This means that patients can tolerate a higher stimulation threshold. The…
Topical urea is a gold standard treatment for xerosis. Skin xerosis is commonly observed in diabetic subject. A correct hydratation of the skin is advised in order to reduce the risk of skin lesions such as ulcer. No comparative data are available…
6MP treatment in pediatric ALL patients can be improved by developing a pediatric oral drinking solution of 6MP, assessing its bioequivalence, and -when successful- introducing the new formulation nationwide.
The hypothesis to be tested is that the outcome in arm B is better than in arm A.
Binocular patching in combination with posture adherence is superior to posture adherence alone in achieving visualization of the superior fundus quadrants following a vitreous hemorrhage.
1. Both tailored interventions will result in better outcomes on self-reported fruit, vegetable, high-energy snack and fat intake, than the generic information control group; 2. Both tailored interventions will result in better outcomes on secondary…
The combination of breast surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy have a profound effect on the deep myofascial level and in turn, they create a vicious circle of adhesions and lack of mobility and pain in muscles, fasciae and joints around the…
Computer-tailored safety information combined with personal counseling results in: 1. Improved parents¡¦ child safety behaviors; 2. Improved satisfaction with different elements of intervention.
Pain Rehabilitation Programs (PRP’s) are proven effective for patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain (CMP). Evidence about the relationship of dose on the effect of PRP however, is unavailable. We hypothesized that shortening PRP will not be…
1. That adherence to the WHO recommendations (2003) for early child feeding among low-income Quetzaltenango mothers, specifically exclusive breastfeeding up to 6 months, is associated with higher growth attainment and greater disease resistance; 2.…
Chronic cold exposure will increase: 1. Basal metabolism and facultative thermogenesis; 2. Brown adipose tissue activity and volume; 3. Skeletal muscle mitochondrial uncoupling and result in BRITE cell recruitment.
Intra-operative evaluation of efficacy and safety of a new lead for steering Deep Brain Stimulation.
Primary Hypothesis: 1. Sapiens lead is able to provide stimulation to the brain safely and elicit equivalent effects as commercial DBS systems. Secondary Hypotheses: 1. Steering can modulate the thresholds of stimulation-induced effects; 2. The…
Smoking cessation after development of coronary heart disease improves prognosis more than any other treatment and prevents future cardiovascular diseases. This study aims to provide hospitalized coronary heart disease patients who smoke with proven…
External cepahlic version (ECV) of the fetus in breech position is a safe and relative simple obstetric intervention to reduce the incidence of caeserean section for breech position at term. Uterine relaxants can enhance the success rate of ECV with…
