Abstract

In deze uitgave: De inrichting van de tuin biedt genoeg mogelijkheden om er later volop van te kunnen genieten; enkele tips. Een groene tuin is niet alleen aantrekkelijker, maar de aanleg is goedkoper dan bij een tuin met veel tegels; we geven enkele rekenvoorbeelden. Een groene tuin, dus met planten, struiken en bomen, is belangrijk voor onze gezondheid. Uit wetenschappelijk onderzoek is vast komen te staan dat voor vrij veel aandoeningen een tuin gunstig blijkt te zijn.

Abstract

Advies, kennis, inspirerende voorbeelden - In het eerste deel van Aan de slag met … Biodiversiteit vertelt Eddy Schabbink, biodiversiteitsexpert bij IPC Groene Ruimte, over de noodzaak voor gemeentelijke overheden – die nu vooral sectoraal werken – om samen te werken; niet alleen intern tussen afdelingen, maar ook met waterschappen, woningcorporaties en provincies. Gemeenten moeten daarnaast volgens Schabbink zorgen dat biodiversiteit in de omgevingsplannen en verordeningen verankerd wordt. In het tweede deel komt vooral de dagelijkse praktijk aan bod en worden de diverse mogelijkheden voor gemeenten beschreven om biodiversiteit te bevorderen. Zoals het stimuleren van bodemleven, het aanpakken van de waterhuishouding, ecologische verbindingszones en groene daken. Ook worden planten genoemd die kunnen bijdragen aan biodiversiteit en welke locaties in de stad geschikt zijn voor groene initiatieven. De inbreng van burgers bij vergroening van hun leefomgeving krijgt eveneens aandacht. Het laatste deel van het boek beschrijft zes praktijkvoorbeelden van gemeenten (onder meer Den Haag, Assen en Middelburg) die herkenbare voorbeelden, oplossingen en tips geven om biodiversiteit te verhogen. Door het boek heen staan citaten van onder anderen Louise Vet (voorzitter Stichting Deltaplan Biodiversiteitsherstel), Maarten Loeffen (directeur Stadswerk) en Wout Veldstra (voorzitter Stichting Steenbreek).

Abstract

Item does not contain fulltext BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to analyze the stoma-related reinterventions, complications and readmissions after an anterior resection for rectal cancer, based on a cross-sectional nationwide cohort study with 3-year follow-up. METHODS: Rectal cancer patients who underwent a resection with either a functional anastomosis, a defunctioned anastomosis, or Hartmann's procedure (HP) with an end colostomy in 2011 in 71 Dutch hospitals were included. The primary outcome was number of stoma-related reinterventions. RESULTS: Of the 2095 patients with rectal cancer, 1400 patients received an anterior resection and were included in this study; 257 received an initially functional anastomosis, 741 a defunctioned anastomosis, and 402 patients a HP. Of the 1400 included patients, 62% were males, 38% were females and the mean age was 67 years (SD 11.1). Following a primary functional anastomosis, 48 (19%) patients received a secondary stoma. Stoma-related complications occurred in six (2%) patients, requiring reintervention in one (0.4%) case. In the defunctioned anastomosis group, stoma-related complications were present in 92 (12%) patients, and required reintervention in 23 (3%) patients, in 10 (1%) of these more than 1 year after initial resection. Stoma-related complications occurred in 92 (23%) patients after a HP, and required reintervention in 39 (10%) patients in 17 (4%) of cases more than 1 year after initial resection. The permanent stoma rate was 11% and 20%, in the functional anastomosis and the defuctioned anastomosis group, respectively. The end colostomy in the HP group was reversed in 4% of cases. CONCLUSIONS: Construction of a stoma after resection for rectal cancer with preservation of the sphincter is accompanied with long-term stoma-related morbidity. Stoma complications are more frequent after a HP. Even after 1 year, a significant number of reinterventions are required.

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the oncological safety and potential cost savings of selective histopathological examination after appendectomy. Background: The necessity of routine histopathological examination after appendectomy has been questioned, but prospective studies investigating the safety of a selective policy are lacking. Methods: In this multicenter, prospective, cross-sectional study, inspection and palpation of the (meso)appendix was performed by the surgeon in patients with suspected appendicitis. The surgeon's opinion on additional value of histopathological examination was reported before sending all specimens to the pathologist. Main outcomes were the number of hypothetically missed appendiceal neoplasms with clinical consequences benefiting the patient (upper limit two-sided 95% confidence interval below 3:1000 considered oncologically safe) and potential cost savings after selective histopathological examination. Results: Seven thousand three hundred thirty-nine patients were included. After a selective policy, 4966/7339 (67.7%) specimens would have been refrained from histopathological examination. Appendiceal neoplasms with clinical consequences would have been missed in 22/4966 patients. In 5/22, residual disease was completely resected during additional surgery. Hence, an appendiceal neoplasm with clinical consequences benefiting the patient would have been missed in 1.01:1000 patients (upper limit 95% confidence interval 1.61:1000). In contrast, twice as many patients (10/22) would not have been exposed to potential harm due to re-resections without clear benefit, whereas consequences were neither beneficial nor harmful in the remaining seven. Estimated cost savings established by replacing routine for selective histopathological examination were 725,400 per 10,000 patients. Conclusions: Selective histopathological examination after appendectomy for suspected appendicitis is oncologically safe and will likely result in a reduction of pathologists' workload, less costs, and fewer re-resections without clear benefit.

Abstract

Contains fulltext : 239366.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access) AIM: Nonrestorative low anterior resection (n-rLAR) (also known as low Hartmann's) is performed for rectal cancer when a poor functional outcome is anticipated or there have been problems when constructing the anastomosis. Compared with restorative LAR (rLAR), little oncological outcome data are available for n-rLAR. The aim of this study was to compare oncological outcomes between rLAR and n-rLAR for primary rectal cancer. METHOD: This was a nationwide cross-sectional comparative study including all elective sphincter-saving LAR procedures for nonmetastatic primary rectal cancer performed in 2011 in 71 Dutch hospitals. Oncological outcomes of patients undergoing rLAR and n-rLAR were collected in 2015; the data were evaluated using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and the results compared using log-rank testing. Uni- and multivariable Cox regression analysis was used to evaluate the association between the type of LAR and oncological outcome measures. RESULTS: A total of 1197 patients were analysed, of whom 892 (75%) underwent rLAR and 305 (25%) underwent n-rLAR. The 3-year local recurrence (LR) rate was 3% after rLAR and 8% after n-rLAR (P

Abstract

Background: The aim of this study was to determine the prognostic value of lymph node count (LNC) and lymph node ratio (LNR) in rectal cancer after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT). Methods: Patients who underwent neoadjuvant CRT and total mesorectal excision (TME) for Stage I–III rectal cancer were selected from a cross-sectional study including 71 Dutch centres. Primary outcome parameters were disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). Prognostic significance of LNC and LNR (cut-off values 0.15, 0.20, 0.30) was tested for different (sub)groups. Results: From 2095 registered patients, 458 were included, of which 240 patients with LNC < 12 and 218 patients with LNC ≥ 12. LNC was not significantly associated with DFS (p = 0.35) and OS (p = 0.59). In univariable analysis, LNR was significantly associated with DFS and OS in the whole cohort and LNC subgroups, but not in multivariable analysis. Conclusions: LNC was not associated with long-term oncological outcome in rectal cancer patients treated with CRT, nor was LNR when corrected for N-stage. However, LNR might be used to identify subgroups of node-positive patients with a favourable outcome.

Abstract

Hebben nieuwbouwwoningen en huurwoningen een hogere versteningsgraad van hun tuinen dan andere woningen? Met die vraag hielden twee studenten van hogeschool Van Hall Larenstein zich eind vorig jaar, begin dit jaar bezig. Een voorzichtige conclusie: er is een verband tussen de grootte van een tuin en verstening. Een harde conclusie: er dient vervolgonderzoek te komen.

29. The Effect of Active and Passive Social Media Use on Sleep Quality, Moderated by Social Media Self-Regulation Failure

Author

Bouwman, H., Heu, L.C. (Thesis Advisor), Bouwman, H., and Heu, L.C. (Thesis Advisor)

Abstract

Research shows that high usage of social media is related to sleep disorders, but it is unclear if this effect differs by type of social media use and may depend on social media self-regulation failure (SMSRF). Therefore, this study examined whether active and passive social media use differed in their effect on the quality of sleep among adolescents, and if the effect of social media use on sleep quality was stronger for adolescents with high levels of SMSRF compared to adolescents with low levels of SMSRF. In this analysis of a two-wave longitudinal study, 660 Dutch adolescents aged 11-17 years, completed an online questionnaire. The findings of hierarchical linear regression analysis showed that active use of social media did not significantly predict sleep quality over time. Passive social media use was negatively associated with sleep quality over time, but this association was not significant. SMSRF significantly moderated the association between passive social media use and sleep quality, where the effect of passive social media use on decreased sleep quality was stronger for adolescents with higher levels of SMSRF. More research into the different effects of active and passive social media use is needed to potentially reduce the impact of social media on adolescents through interventions.

Abstract

Differences in bird eggshell thicknesses occur due to numerous factors, including thinning due to persistent organic pollutants. Not only does thinning weaken the shell; weaker shells combined with elevated ambient temperature and changes in humidities may result in changes in water loss rates from the egg contents. Therefore, thinner eggshells raise concern of water being lost faster than normal at lower relative humidities, which may affect hatching. To investigate the combined effects, we developed and tested an effective method that measures water loss through different thickness eggshells at controlled temperatures and relative humidities to assist in ascertaining the combined effects of climate change (temperature and humidity) and changes in eggshell thickness on bird reproduction. The fastest rate of loss was at 40% RH at 40 °C (0.1 mL/cm2/day), and the slowest was at 22 °C at 80% RH (0.02 mL/cm2/day). Eggshell thickness had a significant effect on water loss at all humidity treatments, except at the highest temperature and humidity treatment (80% RH and 40 °C). Temperature explained 40% of the variance, RH explained 20%, and interactions between temperature and humidity explained 15% of the variance (repeated-measures, two-way ANOVA). Generalized linear analyses revealed that both factors temperature and humidity contributed significantly in any two-way combinations. We have laid the ground for a system to test the combined effects of temperature and humidity changes associated with climate change and eggshell thinning associated with pollutants, on water loss across eggshells

Abstract

Brominated flame-retardants (BFRs), including polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD), were analysed in 77 eggs of 13 wild bird species from Gauteng and northern Free State (the industrial heartland of South Africa). BFRs were in all eggs, but not all BFRs were quantifiable. Concentrations ranged between 2.9 and 46 ng g−1 wm (wet mass) and the predominant congeners were BDE-47, -153, -154, -183 and -209. The BFR compositional patterns of the congeners in eggs differed between species, feeding guilds, and habitats. Differences in associations of birds with humans seemed to have as much an influence as the trophic levels occupied by the maternal animals. The congener pattern of BFRs differed between terrestrial and aquatic species. The congener concentrations and patterns also differed from eggs from other countries, suggesting differences in sources. BFR concentrations in eggs from the current study area were below a reported no observed effect level (NOEL; 1 000 ng g−1 wm). Although this suggests that the BFRs do not pose a risk, the NOEL was mostly based on information from birds from moderate and colder climates. This NOEL might not apply to birds from warmer climates with different life histories, as in the current study, because there are currently only draft regulations on importing BFRs or BFR-containing products in South Africa. The BFR-containing products otherwise destined for countries with BFR restrictions in place may now find their way to South Africa. The additional waste these poorly regulated products generate will eventually find their way to landfills ensuring that release to the environment and consequent exposures to biota will continue without effective interventions and waste management. Our findings indicate the need for on-going environmental monitoring to assess trends, identify hot spots, investigate effects, strengthen waste management, and the need to urgently implement the commitments under the Stockholm

Abstract

Contains fulltext : 215772.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access) BACKGROUND: The time interval between CRT and surgery in rectal cancer patients is still the subject of debate. The aim of this study was to first evaluate the nationwide use of restaging magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and its impact on timing of surgery, and, second, to evaluate the impact of timing of surgery after chemoradiotherapy (CRT) on short- and long-term outcomes. METHODS: Patients were selected from a collaborative rectal cancer research project including 71 Dutch centres, and were subdivided into two groups according to time interval from the start of preoperative CRT to surgery (< 14 and >/= 14 weeks). RESULTS: From 2095 registered patients, 475 patients received preoperative CRT. MRI restaging was performed in 79.4% of patients, with a median CRT-MRI interval of 10 weeks (interquartile range [IQR] 8-11) and a median MRI-surgery interval of 4 weeks (IQR 2-5). The CRT-surgery interval groups consisted of 224 (< 14 weeks) and 251 patients (>/= 14 weeks), and the long-interval group included a higher proportion of cT4 stage and multivisceral resection patients. Pathological complete response rate (n = 34 [15.2%] vs. n = 47 [18.7%], p = 0.305) and CRM involvement (9.7% vs. 15.9%, p = 0.145) did not significantly differ. Thirty-day surgical complications were similar (20.1% vs. 23.1%, p = 0.943), however no significant differences were found for local and distant recurrence rates, disease-free survival, and overall survival. CONCLUSIONS: These real-life data, reflecting routine daily practice in The Netherlands, showed substantial variability in the use and timing of restaging MRI after preoperative CRT for rectal cancer, as well as time interval to surgery. Surgery before or after 14 weeks from the start of CRT resulted in similar short- and long-term outcomes.

Abstract

Blood samples were obtained on four occasions over a 12-month period from individuals living in KwaZulu, South Africa, who had been exposed to DDT (1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis(4-chlorophenyl)ethane) as a consequence of its use in their homes to control transmission of malaria. The longitudinal changes in serum DDT and its major metabolites, DDE and DDD, were determined. No additional risk was considered to have been presented by the increases that occurred following application of the pesticide. There were significant increases in DDT, DDE and [sigma]DDT (DDT + its metabolites) for the age group [greater than or equal to]21 years, but for the age group 3-20 years a reduction in serum levels occurred over 12 months. Two concurrent processes probably govern the increase and decrease in serum levels, and the relative contributions of each interchange as the individual becomes older. The results suggest that children in KwaZulu experience conditions that differ from those of their parents, as well as from those that affect children in developed countries. In consequence, it is desirable that risk assessments of vector control chemicals consider all sectors of a population., Introduction The levels of DDT (1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis(4-chlorophenyl)ethane) and its metabolites in serum and whole blood have received considerable attention ([1-5]).

Abstract

Although the use of DDT has been restricted in recent years, this insecticide is still used to control mosquitoes in areas in which malaria is a major problem. DDT in human breast milk is indicative of both the amount of exposure and the potential health risks posed to the mother and her infant. This study examined DDT levels in breast milk for mothers exposed to DDT compared with those not exposed to DDT. Breast milk samples were obtained from mothers who lived in South Africa in an area where DDT was used for malaria prevention and from a control group of mothers living in an area of the country in which DDT was not used. The samples were obtained four times over the course of one year. The first sample was taken in November, the second sample in March, just after DDT was sprayed, the third sample in June, and the final sample again in November. The milk was tested for DDT concentration and for concentrations of the DDT metabolites, DDE and DDD. A total of 132 samples were taken from the exposed group and 88 were taken from the control group. DDT was detected in the milk of 19 women in the control group, and these levels were extremely low. The fourth sample was not taken in this group. In the exposed group, DDT and DDE were detected in all samples and DDD was detected in all but three samples.
