The aim of this project is to evaluate the clinical value of biomarkers in adult patients with pulmonary hypertension, in particular:1) To quantify biomarkers of neurohormonal activity as NTproBNP, endotheline-1 and of immunological activity as CRP…
Investigate the effect of having CYP2C19 and CYP2D6 genotypes at start of antidepressant therapy and it’s cost-effectiveness in the primary care setting.
Rationale: Approximately, 10-20% of older adult patients present with non-specific complaints (NSCs) at the emergency department (ED). NSCs are known as poorly described symptoms, such as ‘weakness’ and ‘fatigue’, often leading to an extensive…
We hypothesize that video consultations will be valued equivalent with F2F-visits, with a reduction in associated patient costs and total healthcare costs. In addition to that, we hypothesize that patients consider F2F-visits worth the effort and…

Care workers and clients allocated to the intervention arm (receiving access to the ZELF program) will improve their 'stimulation behavior' and 'optimize function' respectively.
We hypothesize that CTC detection through diagnostic leukapheresis improves the detection rate among ER+, N+ primary breast cancer who have received 5 years of adjuvant endocrine therapy and will be a promising technique for risk classification in…
An information campaign was developed targeting early-stage KHOA patients and healthcare professionals (HCPs) to optimise timing of referral to secondary care.
the application of EMDR therapy is associated with a significant decrease in severity of depressive symptoms and decrease of percentage of patients meeting DSM-5 criteria for MDD compared to the waiting list. Participants receiving EMDR report after…
