Whole Body Vibration (WBV) applied via a chair has positive chronic effects on cognitive function of older people.
The primary objective is to determine the efficacy of angina control with this type of Peripheral Subcutaneous Field Stimulation (PSFS) at three months and 12 months. This will be assessed in a patient diary by the number of angina attacks and the…
Test weighing using a double-check weighing method is precise in determining infant intake: in more than 90% of weighings test weighing will be within 5ml of the actual amount drunk
For patients with stage III-IV irresectable melanoma who have at most 3 metastases, the tumor can be reduced in size by treating with dabrafenib and trametinib for 8 weeks. After this reduction, complete surgery of the tumor could be made possible.
The TORCH screen is often requested by gynecologists, but there rarely is a clinical relevant outcome. Isn’t it better to reduce the test indications or the number of tested infections to make the test more cost effective and clinical relevant? And…
We expect that tDCS will enhance speed of language recovery, resulting in improved communication, quality of life and participation - associated with decreased rehabilitation consumption and cost reduction.
The primary endpoint of this study is to assess if myocardial strain and strain rate -measured with tissue Doppler and 2D speckle tracking- determined with TOE is comparable with cardiac strain and strain rate determined with TTE. Secondary…
We hypothesize that the commercially available CE-marked over the scope Pro-select Padlock clip is able to clip a gastic/duodenal SET, where after full thickness resection of the SET can be achieved using a normal
Applying to the antibiotic checklist - based on generic quality indicators for the antibiotic treatment of bacterial infections in the hospital - will likely result into better patient care in terms of adequate treatment, duration of intensive care…
motivational interviewing can be an effective method to support patients in maken lifestule behavior changes
We expect that when the developed checklist will be used in de diagnostic proces of children with developmental and/or behavioral disability, the use of pediatric care will be more efficiently used. Over and underdiagnoses of a causal somatic…
1. After completing real approach bias re-training, participants will show a stronger reduction in approach bias for alcohol than after placebo training (main effect 1); 2. After completing real attentional bias re-training, participants will show a…
the use of a digital electrocardiogram in general practice attributes to the detection of silent ischemia
Training should affect attentional control processes specifically associated with alcohol-related stimuli. As a result, training as an additional treatment on top of CBT should reduce biases to alcohol-associated stimuli which have been linked with…
The aim of the current study is to test whether online training of a positive attentional bias and/or working memory capacity can reduce anxiety and/or depressive symptoms in adults with heightened emotional symptoms.
Inflammatory injury of the lung after cardiac surgery in heart failure versus non-heart failure patients; An observational study of clinical variables, genetic association, and etiologic and prognostic aspects of inflammatory markers in serum and…
We hypothesize that age-related changes in hepatic and intestinal drug metabolism affect the pharmacokinetics of paracetamol.
Recently, (changes in) the gut microbiome (flora / bacteria) have been associated with obesity and insulin resistance, and other cardiovascular risk factors or atherogenic processes. Venous thrombosis shares these risk factors, probably by a shared…
Hard-core smokers are smokers who have been smoking for many years and who do not intend to quit. This makes them vulnerable to disease and death. Since hard-core smokers are unlikely to quit smoking, before aiming at actually quitting, we first…
In this RCT we investigate the effects of two school-based physical activity interventions (aerobic exercises versus coordinative exercises) in primary school children on executive functions and academic achievement. We hypothesize that both aerobic…
