Recent research shows that obesity is associated with changed bowel flora composition with a relative abundance of the two dominant bacterial divisions, the Bacteroidetes and the Firmicutes. Interestingly, this specific bacteria associated condition…
In the first 6 months Liraglutide affects weight more than CBT, but CBT provides weight maintenance after 12 months.
We hypothesize that treatment with peppermint oil will lead to a greater symptom (especially abdominal pain) reduction in IBS patients compared to placebo. This will lead to a higher total percentage of responders (as defined by FDA/EMA…
The administration of propranolol will inhibit the increase in dermal blood flow (DBF) induced by capsaicin application.
1. The primary research inquiry being raised concerns anaesthesia related causes: Is it possible that adapting an amount of Sevoflurane, from 1 MAC (minimum alveolar concentration) (2,5 vol%) to ½ MAC (1,25 vol%) in an MRI scan can reduce the…
Publishing a guideline is not enough. An implementation strategy is needed to improve pain reporting, pain measurement and adequate pain therapy.
Higher occlusion rate in the EVLA group seen at 1 week postoperative. More recurrences seen in the VNUS group seen at long term. No differences in short term recovery results between both groups.
The present study aimed to improve the performance of the A-DIVA scale by identifying predictors other than those included in the original scale. A modified A-DIVA II scale will be created which is applicable in the total hospitalized population to…
Clinically, children with syndromic craniosynostosis seem to have an increased risk of learning disabilities and behavioral problems in comparison with the general population.
The OptiScanner provides accurate blood glucose levels in critically ill patients.
1. Volume intervention by a diuretic and moderate sodium diet potentiates the antiproteinuric effects of aliskiren in patients with residual albuminuria during conventional RAAS-blockade; 2. Aliskiren neutralizes the reactive rise in plasma renin…
To investigate the impact of an open label non-mandatory switching strategy from Enbrel to Benepali on drug survival, effectiveness and safety in a controlled cohort study of RA, PsA and SpA patients in daily practice.
Vitamin D plays an integral role in calcium and phosphorus homeostasis. A low vitamin D status can occur as a result of reduced synthesis due to lack of sun exposure, decreased intake or absorption, increased hepatic catabolism, or decreased…
Sunitinib, when given in a high-dose, intermittent schedule, may exhibit improved efficacy in patients with recurrent GBM with an acceptable toxicity profile, compared to lomustine.
Implementation of Syncope Algorithms (SAs) in the Netherlands will increase diagnostic yield, avoid unnecessary admissions and improve quality of life (QoL) by offering timely diagnosis & treatment
We hypothesize that, asymptomatic patients with severe aortic stenosis, receiving an aortic valve replacement have a better quality of life compared to patients without aortic valve replacement.
Our hypothesis is that our gradually progressive protocol offers advantages with respect to the eccentric protocol based on the protocol of Alfredson (gold standard). We expect that, because this protocol is more individualized, less pain during the…
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a chronic, progressive lung disease. The prevalence and associated costs of COPD are projected to increase the upcoming decades. The treatment of COPD aims to reduce risk factors, prevent disease…
The primary aim of the study is to investigate patient characteristics that predict (differential) treatment response across MBT and ST. In addition, mechanisms of change in MBT and ST will be examined. Furthermore, the (cost-)effectiveness of MBT…
