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…
High dose statins will reduce atherosclerosis in post-coarctectomy patients.
Occupational rehabilitation with a gradual return to work based on the principles of exposure in vivo will be more (cost)effective in reducing absenteeism than usual occupational rehabilitation.
The general objective of the DECREASE-IV trial is to assess the clinical efficacy of beta-blocker therapy, statin therapy and combination therapy with beta-blockers and statins in patients undergoing major noncardiac surgery.
It is generally accepted that the early-postoperative flow increase is indicative for successful maturation of an autologous arteriovenous fistula. Our hypothesis is that a patient-specific computer simulation model should be able to predict this…
Lapatinib inhibits the function of Cytochrome P450 3A isoforms and P glycoprotein.
Brachytherapy is globally used as a primary treatment for prostate cancer. The advantage of brachytherapy is that the radiation dose on healthy organs can be limited. Because prostate cancer is a multifocal disease the whole prostate has to be…

The hypothesis to be tested is that arm B is tolerable and that the outcome in arm B is better than in arm A.
Obtain transient temperature data of the skin, core and wound surface during orthopedic back surgery in order to validate the numerical model of Severens for this type of surgery.
The double labeled triglyceride and free fatty acid fat absorption test is as effective as the fecal fat balance as a quantitative diagnostic test for intestinal fat absorption in CF patients.
We hypothesize that with Gd-MRI inhomogeneity of lung perfusion can be readily identified and that these areas match areas of trapped air as visualized by proton MRI and CT.
It is hypothesized that residents in small scale living facilities, compared to those in regular nursing home care, have a higher quality of life and functioning. In addition, it is hypothesized that their family caregivers experience less burden…
