Is it possible / desirable to move Orencia treatment from the hospital to the home situation?
The carotid artery reactivity-test will have independent prognostic value compared to the current, standard prognostic tests (i.e. ankle-brachial-index, walking distance) for patients with peripheral artery disease
(Short) stay and, if possible, treatment at the PMU, will give an improvement in regular psychometrics or at least in some of them.
Liver and adipose tissue levels as well as serum levels of RBP4 are higher in obese subjects compared to lean subjects. In obese subjects tissue and serum levels of RPB4 are correlated with insulin sensitivity and hepatic triglyceride content.
We hypothesize that: 1. Elderly in each of the intervention neighbourhoods will have more favorable outcomes: A. Elderly living in neighbourhoods were the both physical and social environmental changes are made will have the most favorable outcomes…
It is hypothesized that increased prenatal exposure to Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) is related to an increased risk of obesity later in life.

Insomnia patients form a heterogeneous group, each phenotypes of insomnia will show different therapeutic demands.
There is no reliable biological marker for the diagnosis of Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS), so AMS is presently assessed with questionnaires: the Lake Louise self-report score (LLSRS) and the abbreviated Environmental Symptoms Questionnaire (ESQc).…
The aim of the study is the assessment of microcirculatory alterations induced by xenon or sevoflurane anesthesia in patients with compromised left ventricular systolic function.
To evaluate variations of androgenicity and androgen (re) activity in (apparently) eugonadal women by using CAG repeat length polymorphism ([CAG]n) of the androgen receptor, free testosterone levels, 2D:4D ratio and attention for erotic stimuli (…
Our hypothesis is to improve the time of dysphagia-free interval when compared to treatment with brachytherapy alone.
1. Oncologist non-verbal behavior impacts on breast cancer patients' trust; 2. A high amount of eye contact, a patient-oriented posture and regular smiling induce higher trust than low amounts of eye contact, distant posture and a lack of…
It is expected that, for each of the three CBM paradigms, participants in the intervention conditions will show a greater decrease in weekly alcohol use than participants in the control conditions. Generalization of each specific CBM paradigm to…
In this study we will evalute the potention of HistoScanning guided biopsy to increase the detection rate of prostate cancer.

What is the prevalence of dysplasia or carcinoma in patients with Crohn's disease that undergo surveillance endoscopy with chromoendoscopy-guided confocal laser endomicroscopy?
Information on the dynamics and shape of the device and how these change over time will improve our understanding about the fixation and/or sealing of the device, which may help in stent selection and in designing stent grafts that are more durable.
By developing a model which predicts the risk of bleeding with coumarin use, patients can be treated more effectively, potentially avoiding the need for specific antidotes. Besides decreasing the risk of bleeding (potentially resulting in less…
