Standard localized ligations are as feasible as doppler-guided ligations of hemorrhoid arteries.
1. 70% of patients will want risk information on the treatment options including prognosis; 2. Medical oncologists face difficulties while trying to judge which patients want the risk information?; 3. Effects of decision aid are positive.
PAS III-PC and PR-PAS III-PC are non-inferior compared to plasma PC in terms of recovery, estimated by the 1-hour CCI post transfusion
This trial hypothesizes that there are differences in morbidity and efficacy between both surgical techniques. It is also hypothesized that PerigeeTM is less morbid compared to anterior colporraphy as it is a minimal invasive technique. We can not…
Physiotherapy is effective in patients with mastectomy and axillary lymph node dissection (ALND), for shoulder/arm mobility and pain primarily and quality of life secondarily.
The age-specific seroprevalence of a cross-section of the Dutch population for the vaccinations used in the Dutch National Immunisation Programme.
Imiquimod stimulates dendritic cell antigen presentation and migration to lymphnodes. Since dendritic cells are present in the dermis and epidermis, vaccination in the dermis could target these cells and, with simultaneous topical imiquimod…
We hypothesize that treatment of sickle cell patients with NAC results in reduced red cell PS exposure, reduced endothelial activation, increased NO availability, reduced coagulation activation and reduced inflammation detectable with specific…
The hypothesis of the present study is to demonstrate that detection of a particular pattern (e.g., persistent vs. non-persistent) of myocardial (alpha)V(beta)3/5 expression by scintigraphy imaging at 3 and 8 weeks after MI can be used to determine…
1. It is hypothesized that participation in the Active plus program contributes to an increase in physical activity behaviour among older adults; 2. Additionally receiving physical and social environmental information results in an extra increase…
Therapeutic footwear of which adequate off-loading properties are guaranteed and monitored by dynamic plantar pressure assessment will result in a reduced plantar re-ulceration rate in diabetic patients with prior plantar foot ulceration compared to…
In each stratum of probability there is a clinically and statistacally significant difference in the functional ability and disease activity score over time (area under the curve) and progression of radiological joint damage after 1 year of follow-…
Current clinical practice varies widely, especially for infants with 'moderate' hypoglycemia, due to lack of methodological sound studies. This leads to both over- and under-treatment of hypoglycemic infants. This study-protocol is…
Intake of chlorogenic acid and trigonelline reduce postprandial glucose concentrations during an oral glucose tolerance test relative to placebo.
A relative reduction of 50% in the occurence of traveller's diarrhoea.
It is our hypothesis that a combined life style intervention of exercise and weight loss will result in a reduction of pain and improvement of function of the affected hip joint, which will postpone a chirurgical intervention.
Donor-specific antibodies form a significant barrier in transplantation of highly pre-sensitized dialysis patients. Increased waiting time is associated with increased morbidity and mortality among these patients. Thus, there is a need to further…
The EEG profile in responders to methylphenidate will be differ from the EEG profile in non-responders to methylphenidate (i.e. higher total power, increased theta/beta ratio and theta/alpha ratio).
Early PEG placement in ALS patients with dysphagia is associated with longer survival, better nutritional and functional status, and better quality of life
1. To examine the effect of a multidisciplinary treatment program in comparison to a short monodisciplinary intervention (education by a specialized nurse in a 30 minutes session) on pain, limitations in activities and well-being; 2. To examine the…
