Health-related quality of life of adult post Covid-19 condition patients three years after infection and patient characteristics associated with change over time
Individual changes in HRQoL within a year vary widely in the PCC population. Our findings suggest that certain subgroups of individuals with PCC are more vulnerable to prolonged declines in HRQoL
An instrument for broadened risk assessment in antenatal health care including non-medical issues
The resulting score card is a universal risk screening instrument which incorporates recent evidence on non-medical risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes and enables systematic risk management in an integrated antenatal health care setting
Gender Development in Indonesian Children, Adolescents, and Adults with Disorders of Sex Development
Patient Versus Professional Based Psychosocial Risk Factor Screening for Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes
Population Attributable Risks of Patient, Child and Organizational Risk Factors for Perinatal Mortality in Hospital Births
Body Image and Sexuality in Indonesian Adults with a Disorder of Sex Development (DSD)
In Indonesia, disorders of sex development (DSDs) are not well recognized and medical care for affected individuals is scarce. Consequently, many patients live with ambiguous genitalia and appearance. We compared reported outcomes on body image, sexual functioning, and sexual orientation of 39 adults with DSDs (aged 18 to 41) and 39 healthy controls matched for gender, age, and residential setting (urban, suburban, rural). Differences in gender a…
Social deprivation and adverse perinatal outcomes among Western and non-Western pregnant women in a Dutch urban population
An Urban Perinatal Health Programme of Strategies to Improve Perinatal Health
Promotion of a healthy pregnancy is a top priority of the health care policy in many European countries. Perinatal mortality is an important indicator of the success of this policy. Recently, it was shown that the Netherlands has relatively high perinatal death rates when compared to other European countries. This is in particular true for large cities where perinatal mortality rates are 20-50% higher than elsewhere. Consequently in the Netherlan…
Maternal health-related quality of life after induction of labor or expectant monitoring in pregnancy complicated by intrauterine growth retardation beyond 36 weeks
In pregnancies complicated by IUGR beyond 36 weeks, induction of labor does not affect the long-term maternal quality of life
Ethnic background and differences in health care use
For all health services, health disparities among all four major immigrant groups in the Netherlands translate into utilisation disparities, aggravated by lack of language competence. The resulting pattern of systematic lower health services utilisation of elderly immigrants is a challenge for health care providers and policy makers
Quantification of the level descriptors for the standard EQ-5D three-level system and a five-level version according to two methods
The level descriptors have similar distributions across comparable dimensions within each system, but the pattern differs between 3L and 5L. This methodological study provides evidence of increased descriptive power and a broadened measurement continuum that encourages the further development of an official five-level EQ-5D
Evaluating the discriminatory power of EQ-5D, HUI2 and HUI3 in a US general population survey using Shannon’s indices
Performance in terms of absolute and relative informativity of the common dimensions of the three instruments varies over dimensions. Several dimensions are suboptimal: Pain/Discomfort (EQ-5D) seems too crude with only 3 levels, and the level descriptions of Ambulation (HUI3) and Self-Care (HUI2) could be improved. In absence of a formal measure, Shannon's indices provide useful measures for assessing discriminatory power of utility instruments
