There is clear medical need in pediatric high-grade MDS and JMML to control disease pre-SCT without the disadvantages associated with intensive chemotherapy. So far no agents have been successfully applied in this window, or are specifically…
Low-load blood flow restriction therapy has beneficial effects on postoperative quadriceps and hamstrings atrophy/strength, at 8 and 14 weeks after bone-patellar tendon-bone anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, compared to standard care…
Our hypothesis is that adolescents that have been educated on an 'enjoy being fit' elementary school exhibit healthier scores than adolescents that have been educated on a regular Elementary school on the set of outcome variables. However…
1. The point of the skin with best possible transcutaneous nerve stimulation correlates with the point of the skin most superficial to the nerves stimulated within a range of 3 mm; 2. Ultrasound will reveal a significant number of sensitive…
We expect an increased bone mineral density in the calcar region compared to the other ROI’s. Furthermore, we expect early detection of decreased mineral density of the femoral head in patients developing osteonecrosis of the femoral head.
We hypothesize that providing feedback to hospitals will reduce practice variation
Patients with ADAM12 > 203 ng/mL in their serum benefit from the addition of biweekly tocilizumab for 3 doses to neoadjuvant chemoradiation before esophagectomy

We hypothesize that a treatment algorithm that is based on a simple validated measure of health status (CCQ) improves quality of life (as measured on a separate scale) and other classical COPD outcome measurement parameters such as exacerbation…
The primary research hypotheses are: 1. Patients who follow the Onco-Move program will achieve better physical fitness levels, as assessed by objective performance tests, and will report less fatigue than patients in the usual care control group; 2…
Public health authorities have recognized lack of hand hygiene (HH) as one of the important causes of preventable mortality and morbidity at population level. Both at national (UK, USA, Dutch VMS) and international levels (WHO) poor HH has been…
Combination of a round window insertion approach and a lateral wall electrode array minimizes insertion trauma
We hypothesize that the number of patients without vertigo spells at 12 months follow up will be higher in the group that has undergone EDB than in the decompression group.
Good Inter-observer agreement for important markers such as bowel wall thickness and Doppler activity
We hypothesize that the pregnant women in the intervention group (using the PRFS ) will be more satisfied about the perceived quality of antenatal care than the women in the control group.
SU results in a higher rate of self-initiated toileting and a decrease in urinary/faecal accidents.
TAM and ven can be used with acceptable safety and there will be a measurable overall respons. Study is exploratory, so no numbers are given yet.
We hypothesize that compared to traditional in-OR surgical intervention, in-office, needle arthroscopic meniscopexy will be preferred by patients, decrease time-to-recovery and be less costly.
