    Open AccessJudith Tommel, Cinderella K Cardol et al.ARTICLEQuality of Life Research2023

    The PPPQ proved to be a feasible and valid instrument.

  • Response and participation of underserved populations after a three-step invitation strategy for a cardiometabolic health check

    Open AccessIris Groenenberg, Mathilde R Crone et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2015

    Underserved populations can be reached by a low-cost culturally adapted postal approach with a reminder and follow-up telephone calls. The added value of the more expensive face-to-face invitation was negligible. PC participation rates were acceptable. Efforts should be particularly targeted at practices in the most deprived areas

  • Short-Term Versus Long-Term Effects of Depressive Symptoms on Mortality in Patients on Dialysis

    Sandra van Dijk, Tessa O van den Beukel et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2012

Methods In a prospective nationwide cohort study, 1528 patients with end-stage renal disease starting on dialysis completed the Mental Health Inventory. Patients were observed up to 5 years or until …
