In 2003, Kirkley et al introduced the WORC. It is a condition-specific, self-reported instrument to asses QOL in patients with shoulder complaints as a consequence of rotator RC disease. It contains 21, 100mm visual analogue scales which relate to 5 domains of shoulder dysfunction: physical symptoms, sports/recreation, work, lifestyle and emotions. Each question is scored 0100 and the total sco...

Recent advances in achieving highly durable clinical responses via inhibition of immune checkpoint proteins including CTLA-4 and PD1 have revolutionized the outlook for cancer therapy. However, along with impressive clinical activity (response rate of ~25% with either antiCTLA-4 or anti-PD1 as single agent, but > 50% with a combination), severe immune-related adverse events (irAEs) due to the b...

The detection superoxide production in vascular cells is usually limited by a low sensitivity of available assays. We tested the applicability of the luminol derivate L-012 ¿8-amino-5-chloro-7-phenylpyridol¿3,4-dpyridazine-1,4(2H,3H)dione to measure superoxide production in cultured endothelial cells (human umbilical vein endothelial cells) and rat aortic segments. Following stimulation with t...

Ordered sequences of univariate or multivariate regressions provide statistical models for analysing data from randomized, possibly sequential interventions, from cohort or multi-wave panel studies, but also from cross-sectional or retrospective studies. Conditional independences are captured by what we name regression graphs, provided the generated distribution shares some properties with a jo...
