- International studies indicate that young adults are a risk group for developing problem gambling. There is evidence that the normalization of gambling, such as through exposure to loot boxes and sports betting in daily life, can be a stepping stone to playing more and other types of gambling games.ObjectiveThe objective is to investigate, in the Dutch context, which young adults are at increased…
- Predicting heath failure: research into risk factors for earlier recognition of diastolic dysfunction and HFpEF-risk in people with type 2 diabetes
- Babies are fed human milk or infant formula in their first year of life. Many will be fed expressed milk or formula that has been stored in plastic and is heated and served in a plastic baby bottle. This may result in exceptionally high exposures to small plastic particles, i.e. micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs).Disconcertingly, there is a dearth of information on exposure to MNPs in infancy. Infants…
- De ontwikkeling van innovaties in de gezondheidszorg gaat snel en de toepasbaarheid ervan neemt elke dag toe. De implementatie van nieuwe innovaties verloopt echter vaak niet vanzelf. Daarom is er een sterke behoefte aan experts die kennis uit implementatieonderzoek kunnen integreren in de praktijk om innovaties in de zorg effectief te realiseren.Om aan deze behoefte te voldoen, ontwikkelen we een…
- Learn more about good practices that contribute to preventing and reducing the risks of bridging mental health care in general practiotioners care
- The use of plastic materials, such as packaging, textiles and rubber tyres, can lead to the release of small plastic particles into the environment, micro- and nanoplastic particles (MNPs). MNPs have been found in our environment and in our bodies. We still know little about the potential health risks of MNPs.MOMENTUM 2.0 is a follow-up to the 3-year MOMENTUM project to assess the human health…
- 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…
- 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…
