BACKGROUND: Ambulatory children with Spina Bifida (SB) often show a decline in physical activity leading to deconditioning and functional decline. Therefore, assessment and promotion of physical activity is important. Because energy expenditure during activities is higher in these children, the use of …

Om hun werkzaamheden in 2015 te kunnen blijven doen dienen zij een BRL11000 certificaat te halen. Onderdeel van deze BRL 11000 is het werken volgens een kwaliteitszorgsysteem …

The observed persistent soft X-ray spectra (0.5 - 10 keV) of anomalous Xray pulsars (AXPs) can be explained by the magnetar model (Woods and Thompson et al., 2002 [3]) where the emission is powered by the decay of an extreme high magnetic eld ( 1014 G). Because these spectra are relatively soft, measurements …

De kolengestookte energie centrale van GDF SUEZ op de Maasvlakte wordt gekoeld met zeewater uit de Mississippihaven. Het zeewater wordt ingenomen via twee identieke koelwatersystemen. In dit zeewater bevinden zich organismen als mosselen, zeepokken en dergelijken die zich vast kunnen hechten binnen de …

BACKGROUND: Burn injuries have a major impact on the patient's physical and psychological functioning. The consequences can, especially in pediatric burns, persist long after the injury. A decrease in physical fitness seems logical as people survive burn injuries after an often extensive period of decreased …

Beeldportfolio van oud-student Tim Breukers.

In this chapter it is argued that fundamental change in society is required, because environmental problems are serious and ask for a factor 10 or more shift in society, the resilience approach (as outlined in Chap. 2 ) implies change to higher resilience systems and current spatial planning is unable …

Interview met Tim Neutelings over de kennisbasis Nederlands

This systematic review aims to get insight into the feasibility of cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) in patients with cancer prior to a physical exercise programme. We will focus on quality (defined as the adherence to international guidelines for methods of CPET) and safety of CPET. Furthermore, …

Background: Although the general assumption is that patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have decreased levels of physical activity, no review has addressed whether this assumption is correct. Methods: Our objective was to systematically review the literature for physical activity levels and aerobic …
