To determine whether a strategy of invasive treatment (relative to continued medical treatment) of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, mild symptoms of stable angina pectoris, and documented myocardial ischemia lead to a decrease in cardiac…
To test the effectiveness of a self help booklet without therapist guidance vis-à-vis a psycho-education brochure for adult problem drinkers in the general population.
A 10% point difference between the intervention group and control group in IDM is expected. The sample size calculation is based on a worst-case scenario with regard to precision. For a binomial distribution, the widest distribution and thus largest…
It is expected that the CFS patient gets more insight in his or her physical activity pattern, intentions develops to change the behaviour, and really changes the behaviour resulting in a reduction of the CFS complaints.
We hypothesize there is a difference in CPM between the protocols
1) The checklist 'Attune & Stimulate' is a valid instrument to assess the arousal level of clients with SID. 2) Caregivers who are randomized to the intervention group that is instructed to use the A&S-checklist attune…
A single PRP injection result in a clinical relevant reduction of the complaints at six months, compared to an injection with saline.
The induction of immunity might be slower in older persons than in younger individuals. This could influence the occurence of adverse events induced by the vaccine.
Non-inferiority (defined as < 12.5% increase) of pooled buffy coat-derived PR platelet concentrates (PR-plasma-PCs) compared to plasma (plasma-PCs) in terms of clinical efficacy determined by WHO grade ≥ 2 bleeding complications.
Background: Multiproblem young adults (between ages 18 and 27), characterized by a variety of severe psychosocial problems, comprise a societal challenge with high priority on the political agenda, both nationally and internationally. However, so…
The null hypothesis of the primary outcome measure is that there will be no significant differences in DASH scores 6 months after surgery between patients who underwent plate fixation or intramedullary fixation with a TEN. The alternate hypothesis…
Dental caries lesions (with ICDAS Codes 3 and 4) can be treated by sealing, offering a less invasive and less costly treatment option with the same results as preparation and restoration of the carious lesions.
1. Cysteine is an essential amino acid for newborn preterm infants; 2. Cysteine requirements change rapidly with postnatal age; 3. The change in cysteine requirement with age is based upon cystathionase activity; 4. Intestinal cystathionase activity…
1. The primary research inquiry being raised concerns anaesthesia related causes: Is it possible that adapting an amount of Sevoflurane, from 1 MAC (minimum alveolar concentration) (2,5 vol%) to ½ MAC (1,25 vol%) in an MRI scan can reduce the…
The primary objective is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of bevacizumab to ranibizumab in the treatment of patients with subfoveal CNV secondary to AMD as determined by the change in best-corrected visual acuity in the study eye from baseline to…
Short hydration during cisplatin chemo radiation is significantly more effective than long hydration in preventing acute kidney injury
The aim of the pilot trial is to: 1. evaluate the potential effectiveness and effect size of the e-support program for parents of children with a chronic kidney disease; 2. to identify outcome measures most likely to capture potential patient…
