We hypothesize that rhDNase can liquefy sputum in acute asthma resulting in less airways obstruction, reduced work of breathing, and diminished ventilation-perfusion mismatch, thereby improving symptoms, reducing the number of patients who need to…
1-2 intramuscular injections with 100 mg dexamethason in persons without arthritis but with elevated serum levels of rheumatoid factor and or anti-CCP will lead to a reduction in antibody concentrations after 6 months and possibly to a lower…
In this study, we expect to decrease the number of referrals and repeat smears by immediately referring those women who are positive for hrHPV with mildly abnormal smears for colposcopically-directed biopsies. Thus, for the remaining women with BMD…
Pre- and probiotics are able to change the composition of the altered intestinal microbiota that is found in allergic patients, indicating beneficial effects of these nutritional components in the prevention and treatment of allergic diseases. The…
Nebulised DNase has a decreasing effect on the duration of a hospital admission in infants admitted with an RSV-bronchiolitis.

The hypothesis is that cummulative doses of 2.5, 5.0 or 7.5 gram methylprednisolone infusions are equally effective in moderately severe Graves' ophthalmopathy, but that the doses differ in the number and severity of side effects.
Adding amantadine to the standard anti-HCV treatment can improve sustained response rates in chronic hepatitis C.

Local injection therapy with 1ml of triamcinolonacetonide (10mg/ml) provided by a primary care physician is more effective than injection with 1ml NaCl (0,9%) for trigger finger, de Quervain's tenosynovitis and carpal tunnel syndrome.
Antibiotic treatment of hospitalised children with RSV LRTD has no beneficial effect on the clinical course.
Unlike other potential sepsis treatments, Alkaline Phosphatase has been shown to act at the front end of the inflammatory cascade. By doing so, it eliminates the root cause of the SIRS, and prevents the progression into sepsis and septic shock.
Inhalation of rhDNase before sleep increases the expiratory flow at 25% of the actual forced vital capacity (MEF25) compared to inhalation of rhDNase in the morning.
Intrathecal methylprednisolone reduce the features of central sensitization in patients with complex regional pain syndrome type 1 having symptoms longer than 6 months and shorter than 6 years.
It is postulated that the use of Osigraft will prove beneficial in the treatment of patients requiring decompression and instrumented lumbar spinal fusion while eliminating the pain and morbidity associated with harvesting of autograft bone from the…
Primary: Upfront pre-treatment with a high bolus dosage of Tirofiban will result in a lower extent of residual ST segment deviation 1 hour after Primary Coronary Angioplasty for acute myocardial infarction, compared to no pre-treatment (besides…
Chronic sleep disorders are associated with dysfunctioning during the day. Circadian rhythm disorders are a frequently occurring cause of chronic sleep disorders. The time at which the endogenous melatonin production starts to rise plays a key-role…
If the 'level of fitness dependant protocol' produces a higher VO2-max in comparison with the adapted Bruce protocol, then a relevant difference can be shown when the results are statistically analysed.
The use of by filtration-leukocyte reduced blood transfusions in patients undergoing cardiac surgery, will result in lower alloimmunization frequencies compared to using buffy-coat depleted blood transfusions. This has previously been shown in…
