- Read how the GoHot consortium investigates the health risks associated with heat stress, air quality and pollen in a changing climate.
- 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…
- This project is a continuation of the CIAO project, focusing on appropriate measures to prevent and control outbreaks of COVID-19 and influenza in nursing homes. The CIAO project started in November 2022 and was completed in August 2024. The current project focused on the dissemination and implementation of the CIAO project findings.
- GP practices were less easy to visit during COVID-19 and remote care was offered. The lockdowns also had short-term effects on dietary patterns and physical activity. This study examines the midterm effects on access to the GP and health behaviours of citizens in deprived areas and diabetes patients. It is a follow-up to the ZonMw project Effects of COVID-19 on GP visits by patients in deprived…
- Dialysis and kidney transplant patients were the most vulnerable during the COVID-19 pandemic. The effects of COVID-19 measures on the health of these patients will be investigated. The influence of factors as age, gender, family composition, education level and work situation are taken into account. We also look back at how the measures have been experienced by patients. This insight can lead to…
- 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…
- Due to lockdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic, healthcare was postponed and sectors were closed. People with existing health problems were particularly vulnerable to the consequences. In the long term, this may have lasting effects on their health and labour market position. Mitigating factors, such as a social network or remote care, may have reduced the impact of lockdown measures. Understanding…
- People with an intellectual disability have fewer contacts with other people. They also feel lonely more often than others. During the COVID-19 pandemic, there were measures that made contact with others and participation in activities more difficult. And even after the pandemic, it remained a challenge for people with ID to participate in activities again. Or to see other people. The question is…
- There is insufficient knowledge on the impact of school closures during a pandemic. A school closure can have a major impact on students, and therefore influence society and the economy in the longer term. The PRESENT-consortium is therefore mapping the diverse effects of secondary and MBO school closures. This will allow us to better advise and make decisions during future pandemics.
- Read how researchers improved the technology and content of a Serious Game about infectious diseases, and increased its support base and sustainable implementation.
- Reconnect patients after cancer treatment: learn how a decision tool for prostate cancer and breast cancer helps patients and GPs in shared decision making.
- Read how researchers will develop reliable biomarkers to improve treatment predictions and outcomes for antifungal-resistant Candida infections.
