A first hypothesis is that an advanced quality improvement program (AQIP) significantly improves clinical outcomes in persons with type 2 diabetes compared to a usual quality improvement program (UQIP). The second hypothesis is that persons with…
We hypothesize that membrane-residing gangliosides are elevated in obese insulin resistant subjects and correlate to peripheral insulin resistance. Furthermore, we hypothesize that the perturbation of the insulin signaling cascade by elevated…
We hypothesize that children who will follow this structured functional PRE strength training program will increase in muscle strength, which accordingly will lead to functional improvement in physical functioning, but with no negative effect…

ORIF with volar fixed-angle plates and external fixation have a similar outcome as measured with the DASH score (and the Mayor Wrist Score).
A physical reactivation program is more effective in improving physical activity behaviour, quality of life, diabetic parameters and psychosocial well being than usual care in type-2 diabetic patients.
ECT is effective as treatment of psychosis in patients suffering from clozapine resistant schizophrenia.

Patients with moderate to severe COPD, CHF or CRF have been shown to suffer from exercise intolerance, muscle weakness and abnormal changes in body composition, irrespective of the degree of primary organ failure. Therefore, it seems reasonable to…
