To determine the epidemiology, diagnosis and prognosis of enterovirus (EV) and parechovirus (HPeV) infection in Dutch children. Hypotheses: 1. EVs are one of the most important viral agents of infection in Dutch children; 2. EVs are the major cause…
We hypothesize that Moroccan-Dutch differ from native-Dutch in stress reactivity. This difference is not explained by group differences in known non-social risk factors for psychosis. Affirmative findings in the current study would support to the…
1. In Barrett Esophagus (BE), probe-based laser endomicroscopy (pCLE) provides better correlation with the histological diagnosis compared to detailed inspection with Narrow Band Imaging (NBI), reducing the high rate of false-positive findings with…
We expect that when the developed checklist will be used in de diagnostic proces of children with developmental and/or behavioral disability, the use of pediatric care will be more efficiently used. Over and underdiagnoses of a causal somatic…
Information on the dynamics and shape of the device and how these change over time will improve our understanding about the fixation and/or sealing of the device, which may help in stent selection and in designing stent grafts that are more durable.
We hypothesize that by combining the recently validated gout flare criteria with a patient-friendly app and real-time monitoring, we can implement a gout flare measure that is less prone to recall bias and can be used by patients at home. It could…
Our hypothesis is that patients who are denied of ERCP during initial hospital admission, will be more frequently readmitted because of recurrent biliary events compared to those who did undergo ERCP during primary hospital admission.
Specific areas of language production are affected in children and adolescents with classic galactosemia, in particular syntactic production. Further, it is hypothesized that the galactosmic patients will show a profile of general cognitive…
We hypothesise that CAP is a safe treatment that reduces bacterial load on the wound surface and promotes wound healing.
HIV-infection and antiretroviral therapy use may lead to a diminished neurological and neurocognitive performance in HIV-infected children.
We hypothesize that general practitioner (GP) involvement improves both aftercare and preventive care resulting in improved quality of life and patients’ satisfaction. Furthermore, a GP-led recurrence detection programme leads to at least equal…
We hypothesize that anxiety symptoms worsen after follow-up imaging compared to patients baseline anxiety levels.
Addition of alternative tests (TEG/ROTEM® and/or TGA) which reflect the whole hemostatic status of a patient might help recognizing the level of thrombin formation and fibrinolysis and improve care in ECMO patients and potentially reduce the risk of…
What is the prevalence of dysplasia or carcinoma in patients with Crohn's disease that undergo surveillance endoscopy with chromoendoscopy-guided confocal laser endomicroscopy?
The manual knee-rotation-test in 90 degree flection is reliable
Chemodenervation by lidocaine of the m. vastus intermedius and the m. rectus femoris improves gait pattern in stroke patients presenting a stiff knee gait.
Sarcoidosis is a granulomatous disorder of unknown cause. Current therapy is immunosuppressive, not curative and often ineffective, as we do not thoroughly understand the underlying pathogenesis. Oral corticosteroids are the first line of therapy in…
1. What are characteristic (neuro)physiological factors of fatigue in disease-free cancer patients? 2. To which degree can these factors be influenced by Cognitive Behavior Therapy?
In recent years several studies have been published about colorectal interval carcinomas, carcinomas that develop in patients who are under colonoscopic surveillance. One of the reported explanations for interval carcinomas is incomplete removal of…
