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…
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 the combination of both the IPS and PA intervention is more effective than each of the interventions separately (IPS, or PA), i.e. ‘1+1 = 3’
In this RCT we investigate the effects of two school-based physical activity interventions (aerobic exercises versus coordinative exercises) in primary school children on executive functions and academic achievement. We hypothesize that both aerobic…
We hypothesize that, with increased arm abduction moment loading with a constant exerted abduction force, primary arm moment generators (deltoid muscle) will have a greater increase in activation (EMG) as compared to primary arm/glenohumeral…
The overall aim of this study is to generate a first impression about the usability of the therapy-supportive Luca app with youngsters in youth mental healthcare. For this purpose, we will ask the following research questions: 1. How do therapists…
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…
The aim of this study is to assess long term scar quality of deep dermal burns after debridement with hydrosurgical excision versus conventional tangential excision.
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?
The overall aim of this study is to implement bariatric surgery including the multidisciplinary care pathway around the procedure for unsuccessfully treated adolescents with severe obesity in the Netherlands. Therefore, feasibility, efficacy and…
We hypothesize that a conversation aid and information brochure for patients, and a communication training for physicians improves satisfaction and quality of the discussion about potential treatment restrictions at the internal medicine outpatient…
Age associated molecullar processess are involved in rotator cuff degeneration and the presence of rotator cuff tears
By developing a model which predicts the risk of bleeding with coumarin use, patients can be treated more effectively, potentially avoiding the need for specific antidotes. Besides decreasing the risk of bleeding (potentially resulting in less…
The implicit training (AAT) added to standard behaviour therapy will reduce relapse rates after treatment when compared to the control group.
Technology applied to physiotherapy could contribute to identify subgroups in non-specific low back pain patients.
