Kidney transplantation is the only treatment offering long-term benefit to patients with chronic kidney failure. Urological complications after kidney transplantation, such as urinary leakage and ureteral strictures, are associated with significant…
Patient education on extended anticoagulation pros and cons: a journey app in venous thromboembolism
Our hypothesis is that patients whom receive targeted information about VTE and (extended) anticoagulation treatment with the 'patient journey app' on a daily basis in the week preceding their hospital visit will be more satisfied with the…
We hypothesize that depletion of carnitine occurs during infusion of oxaliplatin, due to increased renal loss. This secondary carnitine deficiency may contribute to the development of CIPN.
We hypothesise that the diet over time has become healthier and more sustainable. Our current study was set up to (1) identify the differences in food consumption and nutritional quality over the course of 20 years in the Netherlands using the…
It is hypothesised that compared to waiting list control condition, participants in the intervention improve their diet and physical activity on the short (6 months after baseline) and long-term (12 months after baseline; when the participant…
Current standard treatments for symptomatic benign thyroid nodules (SBTN) are surgery or radioactive iodine. However, these interventions pose a risk to an otherwise healthy person. Therefore, minimally invasive alternatives have been explored.…
The CPCHILD-18+ is sufficiently tested for its psycometric characteristics to be used in clinical practice and research
Impairment of immune-complex-induced neutrophil activation caused by PDE4 inhibition, making it a potential target for the treatment of pemphigoid diseases.
Primary hypothesis is that MRDTI will demonstrate acceptable sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of acute SVT and the differentiation between acute and chronic SVT.
The hypothesis addressed in this project is that serum calcification propensity is a predictor of coronary artery calcification progression.
Fatigue is expected to be the most prevalent symptom in patients with ILD (IPF and sarcoidosis), next to dyspnoea. Frequency of moderate to severe fatigue in patients with ILD is unknown. In addition, possible correlates of fatigue, including age,…
The aim of the project is to gain insight into the effects of centralisation of polytrauma care on the quality of care. We also want to investigate the effect on the quality and quantity of regular trauma care by shifting polytrauma care from…
The dutch language version of the PRHWE and the Quick DASH questionnaire are valid to use in patients with hand and wrist complaints
The absolute bioavailability of oral imatinib (Glivec®) at steady state can be calculated using LC-MS/MS after concomitant administration of a single 100 µg microdose of stable isotope labeled imatinib (imatinib-d8).
By using weekly the clinical rule reporter as the medication review system, the number of hospital readmissions in older patients (> 60 years) will be reduced with 5% (from 20% to 15%). For the Netherlands this may translate into prevention…
Knee OA is characterized by the presence of crepitus (knee sounds). Therefore, this device is able to record these sounds, while the subject is doing a knee movement, and screen for the presence or absence of osteoarthritis.
Our hypothesis is that despite advanced laboratory techniques serum levels of amylase/lipase are <3 times ULN in patients presenting with hypertriglyceridemia during acute pancreatitis.
We hypothesize that socioeconomic inequalities in diet quality are partly explained by differential dietary costs.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate toxicity and oncologic outcomes of MRI-guided focal salvage high-dose-rate brachytherapy (HDR-BT). In earlier studies, it was shown that focal salvage HDR-BT is feasible and results regarding toxicity are…
