- Research consortium MOVE investigates the impact/value of collaboration in local primary care networks supported by regional alliances. Read more.
- Gambling problems are prevalent and the number of people in the Netherlands experiencing gambling harms has risen significantly since online gambling was legalized. The online Zelfhulp Gokken (Self-Help Gambling/SHG) is a free, widely used self-help tool based on motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioral therapy recognized by the RIVM.ObjectiveThis study aims to enhance and evaluate the…
- Read how the implementation of the Lastmeter helps in the early detection of needs in psychosocial care for adults with cancer.
- The ReableDEM research group advocates for the inclusion of reablement in dementia care. Reablement is an approach that helps individuals with dementia participate in meaningful daily activities, thus enhancing their quality of life. Despite its potential, the use of reablement in dementia care has been slow. ResultsThe group proposes five critical areas for improvement: shifting the way…
- There is ongoing policy discussion and public debate about the net effects of the non-medical interventions (NMIs) that were put in place to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. These measures were implemented to control the pandemic and may have produced unanticipated negative health effects, especially during lockdown times when the “stay-at-home order” (SHOs) were in place for non-essential workers…
- During the COVID-19 pandemic, people with multiple health conditions were disproportionately affected. Multimorbidity and immune system sensitivity are linked to both infection risk and recovery. It is still unclear whether, and how, these factors contribute to mortality after COVID-19. This study examined the impact of COVID-19 on mortality in individuals with multimorbidity, focusing on the…
- Discover how digital intercollegiate consultation (DICO) allows primary care and hospital care professionals to consult each other more easily.
- The rapid spread of multidrug resistant bacteria threatens the treatment of even simple infections in the near future. However, little is known about how bacteria develop resistance on surfaces.AimThe aim of this project was to investigate fundamental mechanisms that shape antimicrobial resistance in biofilms in relation to the surface and then translate those findings into clinical practice…
- Infections with antibiotic-resistant bacteria are a major threat to public health. Due to globalisation and poor use of antibiotics, resistance is spreading rapidly. Moreover, few new antibiotics have come onto the market in the last 20 years.AimIn this international project, researchers have been using the latest high-throughput screens to look for new combinations of drugs that can effectively…
- ExcludeMRSA investigated reducing farmers' exposure to LA-MRSA (Life Stock Associated Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus) by treating piglets with a microflora that competes with this pathogen.GoalThe objectives include identifying bacterial species through microbiome and competition studies, studying the efficacy of a nasal microflora on piglets under field conditions, and estimating…
- This project modelled the transmission dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 among different age groups and 3 risk categories according to the official Dutch risk classification. Their projections for the future demonstrated that vaccinating only individuals at high and medium risk for severe disease was insufficient to avoid overwhelming hospitals in a fall wave, and that a substantial vaccination rate in lower…
- 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…
