Trends in and variability of vital signs reveal hidden information about the state and deterioration of the patient compared to absolute values of vital signs.
Infant formulae with higher levels of milk fat result in improved fatty acids absorption as compared to standard formula.
The expectation of this study is that shorter duration of plaster cast immobilization is beneficial for the patients.
1. The predictive biomarkers for tumor response to immuno modulating therapy will be a combination of adaptive and innate immune status per patient that will be estimated with a tumor biopsy before, 6 weeks after start treatment (optional) and at…
The primary objective of the present study is to investigate the effectiveness of the Resource Groups (RG) on patient outcomes compared to care as usual alone for people with severe mental illnesses. It is hypothesized that participation in the RG…
