Prognosis and prognostic factors of running-related injuries in novice runners Vrije Universiteit Brussel

Tryntsje Fokkema, Robert Burggraaff, Fred Hartgens, Bas Kluitenberg, Evert Verhagen, Frank J G Backx, Henk van der Worp, Sita M A Bierma-Zeinstra, Bart W Koes, Marienke van Middelkoop, et al.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the prognosis and possible prognostic factors of running-related injuries (RRIs) in novice runners.

DESIGN: Prospective cohort study.

METHODS: Participants of Start to Run, a 6-weeks course for novice runners in The Netherlands, were asked to participate in this study. Before the start of the course a baseline questionnaire, on demographics, physical activity and perceived health, was sent to runners ...

Prediction of outcome after moderate and severe traumatic brain injury: external validation of the International Mission on Prognosis and Analysis of Clinical Trials (IMPACT) and Corticoid Randomisation After Significant Head injury (CRASH) prognostic mo Universiteit Antwerpen

Bob Roozenbeek, Hester F. Lingsma, Fiona E. Lecky, Andrew Maas, et al.
Objective: The International Mission on Prognosis and Analysis of Clinical Trials and Corticoid Randomisation After Significant Head injury prognostic models predict outcome after traumatic brain injury but have not been compared in large datasets. The objective of this is study is to validate externally and compare the International Mission on Prognosis and Analysis of Clinical Trials and Corticoid Randomisation after Significant Head injury ...

Clinical characteristics, surgical treatments, prognosis, and prognostic factors of primary tracheal cancer patients Universiteit Antwerpen

Jiagen Li, Fengwei Tan, Yalong Wang, Qi Xue, Yushun Gao, Juwei Mu, Yousheng Mao, Jun Zhao, Dali Wang, Xiaoli Feng, et al.
Background: Tracheal cancer is a rare malignancy of which previous reports are mostly case reports or small series. Herein, we sought to evaluate the clinical characteristics, surgical treatments, and prognosis of surgically treated primary tracheal cancer patients. Methods: Patients with primary tracheal cancer who had received surgery in our center between January 2000 and December 2020 were enrolled. Clinical and surgical features were ...

The benefits of computed tomography imaging in the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment planning of equine orthopedic patients illustrated by six cases = De voordelen van computertomografie in de diagnose, prognose en behandeling van orthopedische aandoenin Universiteit Gent

Louis Vandekerckhove, Els Raes, Michèle Dumoulin, Ann Martens, Katrien Vanderperren
Radiography and/or ultrasonography are the first imaging modalities for diagnosing ortho-pedic pathology in equine patients. However, in some cases, cross-sectional imaging is necessary to reach a more accurate diagnosis. Six cases were retrospectively selected from the imaging database of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine (Ghent University) to illustrate the benefits of computed tomography (CT) in orthopedic patients. In two cases, CT ...

Prognosis does not change the landscape: palliative home care clients experience high rates of pain and nausea, regardless of prognosis KU Leuven Vrije Universiteit Brussel

Kirsten Hermans, Anja Declercq
Background Most individuals who typically receive palliative care (PC) tend to have cancer and a relatively short prognosis (< 6 months). People with other life-limiting illnesses can also benefit from a palliative care approach. However, little is known about those who receive palliative home care in Ontario, Canada’s largest province. To address this gap, the goal of this project was to understand the needs, symptoms and potential ...

Lithium-ion Batteries Health Prognosis Considering Aging Conditions Vrije Universiteit Brussel

Asmae El Mejdoubi, Hamid Gualous, Noshin Omar, Joeri Van Mierlo, Peter Van Den Bossche

The prognosis and health management of lithium-ion batteries are extremely important issues for operating performance as well as the cost of energy storage systems in vehicular applications. This is achieved through the estimation of the State-of-Health (SOH) and the prediction of Remaining Useful Life (RUL). This paper presents a lithium battery prognosis model considering the battery aging conditions. The proposed model is developed based ...

Biomarkers for detection and prognosis of breast cancer identified by a functional hypermethylome screen Universiteit Gent

Jana Jeschke, Leander Van Neste, Sabine C Glöckner, Mashaal Dhir, Marilia Freitas Calmon, Valerie Deregowski, Wim Van Criekinge, Ilse Vlassenbroeck, Alexander Koch, Timothy A Chan, et al.
Breast cancer (BC) is a disease with diverse tumor heterogeneity, which challenges conventional approaches to develop biomarkers for early detection and prognosis. To identify effective biomarkers, we performed a genome-wide screen for functional methylation changes in BC, i.e., genes silenced by promoter hypermethylation, using a functionally proven gene expression approach. A subset of candidate hypermethylated genes were validated in primary ...

Predicting COVID-19 prognosis in the ICU remained challenging: external validation in a multinational regional cohort Universiteit Hasselt KU Leuven

Daniek A. M. Meijs, Sander M. J. van Kuijk, Laure Wynants, Bjorn STESSEL, Jannet Mehagnoul-Schipper, Anisa Hana, Clarissa I. E. Scheeren, Dennis C. J. J. Bergmans, Johannes Bickenbach, Margot VANDER LAENEN, et al.
Objectives: Many prediction models for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) have been developed. External validation is mandatory before implementation in the intensive care unit (ICU). We selected and validated prognostic models in the Euregio Intensive Care COVID (EICC) cohort.Study Design and Setting: In this multinational cohort study, routine data from COVID-19 patients admitted to ICUs within the Eur-egio Meuse-Rhine were collected from ...

The association between urine N-glycome and prognosis after initial therapy for primary prostate cancer Universiteit Gent Vlaams Instituut voor Biotechnologie

Tijl Vermassen, Nicolaas Lumen, Charles Van Praet, Nico Callewaert, Joris Delanghe, Sylvie Rottey
Next to prostate-specific antigen, no biochemical biomarkers have been implemented to guide patient follow-up after primary therapy for localized prostate cancer (PCa). We evaluated the prognostic potential of urine N-glycome in terms of event-free survival (EFS) in patients undergoing primary therapy for PCa. The prognostic features of the urine N-glycosylation profile at diagnosis, assessed in 77 PCa patients, were determined in terms of EFS ...

The utility of biomarkers in prognosis assessment of patients with acute liver failure Universiteit Gent

Anja Geerts, Hans Van Vlierberghe, Xavier Verhelst
Background: Acute liver failure (ALF) is a rare but potential lethal condition characterized by the sudden development of jaundice, coagulopathy and hepatic encephalopathy in patients without underlying liver disease. In selected patients, emergency liver transplantation is required. Selection of these patients is based on clinical criteria such as the Kings College Criteria (KCC) or the Clichy criteria. Aims: The aim of this work is to provide ...
