- Bacteria are increasingly becoming resistant to antibiotics. This is an immediate threat to health care in the Netherlands and elsewhere. Recent studies show that, in Europe alone, more than 30.000 individuals die every year due to an infection with an antibiotic-resistant bacterium.AimThis project studied the pathways by which resistant bacteria can emerge in complex ecosystems, in which they can…

- In de beginperiode van de pandemie werden patiënten behandeld met zuurstof of beademing. Ook werden medicijnen geprobeerd met wisselend resultaat. Enkele medicijnen bleken effectief, maar het is nog onduidelijk aan wie deze medicijnen het beste gegeven kunnen worden. In deze periode zijn veel CT-scans gemaakt om de diagnose te stellen, omdat er weinig PCR-testen waren. Deze scans geven echter ook…
- Which ICU patients are most at risk of a serious infection following discharge? Read the results of this study.
- The use of plastic products, including packaging material, textiles, and rubber tires, can result in the release of tiny plastic particles in the environment. These tiny plastic particles, known as micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs), are increasingly found in our environment, including drinking water and food. However, we know little about the exact exposure to these MNPs and their potential human…
- This project investigated the degree of listening effort of DHH children as well as hearing children in regular schools in two experiments.
- Discover how reducing overtesting in General Practice contributes to less worrying in patients and to futureproof, appropriate care.
- Pandemic-driven school closures produced unintended negative impacts such as parental stress. But are Dutch parents still navigating the stress years later after the school closures? By leveraging advanced statistical techniques and population-based longitudinal survey data, we seek to examine the medium-term causal effects of school closures on parents’ social, psychological, and mental health…
- Naar schatting kreeg 2 van de 3 patiënten met een COVID-19 infectie te maken met reukverlies. Bij het merendeel keerde het reukvermogen binnen een aantal weken terug, maar er zijn ook patiënten bij wie de klachten aanhielden, of die te maken kregen met een verstoord reukvermogen, wat grote invloed heeft op het dagelijks leven. Dit project richtte zich op het verbeteren de zorg en het perspectief…
