Development and application of glyco-bioinformatics packages for targeted quantitation
€ 0,00 Excl. BTW:€ 0,00

This thesis describes the development of novel methods for the targeted quantitation of glycomics and glycoproteomics data. The developed methods proved to be at least on par and in several cases superior to commercially available methods in terms of accuracy of the results. The developed methods also provided several new parameters that could be used for the curation of both the analytes and the measurements, increasing the quality of the final data. Lastly, the developed methods were applied on several cohorts revolving around pregnancy and childbirth. For example, the differences in the total plasma N-glycosylation throughout a pregnancy and after the delivery were investigated by using the developed methods...

Diagnostics In Celiac Disease

Celiac disease (CD) is characterized by an inadequate immune response to gluten, a storage protein in wheat and the related grain species barley and rye. This immune reaction, giving intestinal inflammation and malabsorption, will only occur in genetically susceptible individuals carrying specific human leukocyte antigen (HLA) heterodimers, and consists primarily of a gluten specific T-cell response, although a specific antibody response is also present...

Dietary intake and body-growth in cystic fibrosis
€ 0,00 Excl. BTW:€ 0,00

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a life-threatening genetic disorder that affects mostly the lungs but also the pancreas, liver and intestine. CF is characterised by chronic pulmonary inflammation resulting in a gradual, progressive decline in pulmonary function. The vast majority of CF patients also have an exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, resulting in inadequate digestion and leading to fat malabsorption and malnutrition...

Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are responsible for 30% of all deaths world wide. In the Netherlands, CVD were the second major cause of mortality, accounting for 28% of deaths in 2012. One of the risk factors for CVD is hypertension. Over 25% of adults world-wide was estimated to have hypertension in the year 2000...

Different cultures, different selves?
€ 0,00 Excl. BTW:€ 0,00

This dissertation examined the usefulness of the IC-framework by examining how people across cultures regulate their emotions during social interactions and respond to transgressions in various settings with various people. For this, we used a combination of methods. Our samples included participants with Dutch, Chinese and Moluccan backgrounds. Our studies showed that, even though participants from individualistic and collectivistic cultures differed in how they suppressed emotions and responded to transgressions, their responses also depended upon the situations that they were in and on how close they were with those who were present. As such, our findings present a nuanced view on characterizing cultures as either individualistic or coll..
