While the status of UN SDG14 Life Below Water lags behind in the Netherlands, target horizons for certain targets have been either reached or are fast approaching (2020, 2025, 2030). In 2016, recommendations have been formulated by the PBL Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency, for adjustments …

Background: Effective and sustainable interventions are needed to counteract the decline in physical function and sarcopenia in the growing aging population. The aim of this study was to determine the 6 and 12 month effectiveness of blended (e-health + coaching) home-based exercise and a dietary protein …

A new bookkeeping system called Jiskefet is being developed for A Large Ion Collider Experiment (ALICE) during Long Shutdown 2, to be in production until the end of LHC Run 4 (2029). Jiskefet unifies two function- alities: a) gathering, storing and presenting metadata associated with the oper- ations …

Background: The prescription of physical activity (PA) in clinical care has been advocated worldwide. This “exercise is medicine” (E=M) concept can be used to prevent, manage, and cure various lifestyle-related chronic diseases. Due to several challenges, E=M is not yet routinely implemented in clinical …

De innovaties die het team maakt, worden allemaal gedaan op basis van data. Hiervoor is niet alleen een goede data infrastructuur nodig, maar eveneens het hebben van de juiste data. Helaas klopt niet alle data binnen de database. De EquipmentTracking tabel van ‘Doris’, een Oracle database, wordt gebruikt …

Rationale: Lean body mass, including muscle, is known to decrease with age, which may contribute to loss of physical function, an indicator of frailty. Moreover, low muscle thickness is considered an indicator of frailty in critically ill patients. However, little is known about the relationship between …

Rationale: Malnutrition is a common problem in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Whereas estimation of fat-free muscle mass index (FFMi) with bio-electrical impedance is often used, less is known about muscle thickness measured with ultrasound (US) as a parameter for malnutrition. …

The aim of this study was to gain insight into the nutritional status, dietary intake and muscle health of older Dutch hip fracture patients to prevent recurrent fractures and to underpin rehabilitation programs. This cross-sectional study enrolled 40 hip fracture patients (mean ± SD age 82 ± 8.0 years) …
