Rapid weight loss is a major risk factor for gallstone development. Approximately eleven percent of patients who underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass develop symptomatic gallstone disease. After sleeve gastrectomy similar incidences of symptomatic…
Magnetic Resonance Direct Thrombus Imaging (MRDTI) can be an accurate test for diagnosing Upper Extremity Deep Vein thrombosis (UEDVT)
In 1987, MMR vaccination was implemented in the national immunization program of the Netherlands (NIP) by offering vaccinations to children at the age of 14 months and 9 years. Consequently, the annual mumps incidence decreased dramatically, not…
There is growing evidence that gut permeability (or a 'leaky gut') can be linked to metabolic health and might therefore be involved in development of metabolic disorders related to the metabolic syndrome. We hypothesize that gut…
1. To assess the safety and tolerability of different doses of a single IV injection of OTL-038 2. To assess the efficacy of ascending doses of a single IV injection of OTL-038 in detecting ovarian, renal cell or endometrial cancer during surgery by…
This study investigates the hypothesis that regional anesthesia provided by wound catheter infusion (WCI) with ropivacaine reduces pain postoperatively (as measured with COMFORT behavior scale and NRS Pain scores) and leads to a morphine-sparing…
Children in the intervention condition will consume (a) more water and (b) less sugar sweetened beverages after the intervention compared to the control condition.
Reveal common mechanisms of compulsivity in OCD and GD and disorder specific characteristics of aspects that have been related to compulsivity: confidence in relation with preference for risky and ambiguous behavior, and (negative) outcome…
To establish which BRT or combination of BRTs is the fastest, least painful and has the lowest complication rate for adult patients with an anterior shoulder dislocation presenting in the emergency department (ED).
During the cooling by a cold cap, the scalp is cooled to 4oC for a long period of time (30 minutes prior to start and up to 45 minutes after the infusion of paclitaxel). This could be of influence on the body temperature. Pharmacokinetics and…
Intracranial atherosclerosis is an important cause of ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack (TIA). Ischemic stroke or TIA in the posterior circulation accounts for approximately 20 to 30% of all ischemic events. We hypothesize that arterial…
Exploratory study to develop hypotheses
It is hypothesized that a preoperative oral antibiotic prophylaxis, that is administered in addition to perioperative intravenous prophylaxis, will lead to a reduction in postoperative would infections after colorectal surgery
Virtual Reality (VR) as distraction technique is promising as pain relief. The extent to which VR is effective in relieving pain depends on the extent of presence in the virtual world. This study investigates if the quality of different executive…
It is hypothesized that the Silbernagel exercise program yields at least similar results in terms of symptom reduction (VISA-A score and VAS score)compared with the Alfredson eccentric exercise program.
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a noninvasive brain stimulation technique that increases (anodal tDCS) or decreases (cathodal tDCS) cortical excitability. We hypothesize that anodal tDCS shortens latencies of responses during both…
- A standardized approach by a multidisciplinary experteam will evactuate a reduction of the use of restraints in care for people with intellectual disabilities
PD-L1 is up to now the only marker that has been validated for the selection of patients treated for non-small cell lung cancer who might benefit from the treatment with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors. Thus far, PD-L1 status is assessed with histology, being…
Patients undergoing breast conserving surgery in combination with oncoplastic surgery are more satisfied with the cosmetic result and have a higher quality of life
