Sarcopenia and Physical fRailty IN older people: multi-componenT Treatment strategies (SPRINTT)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2014, Date de fin: 30 juin 2019,
The current healthcare systems are built around the traditional paradigm of patients suffering from a single acute illness. They are therefore largely unprepared to face the increasing demands for health services arising from the expansion of an older population with specific medical needs related to multiple chronic disorders. As a consequence, the medical conditions of a large and growing seg ...

Comparing the effectiveness of palliative care for elderly people in long term care facilities in Europe (PACE)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2014, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2019,
"Aging populations, rising costs and sustainable delivery of high-quality care are increasingly common concerns in all EU countries. PACE aims to perform comparative effectiveness research concerning palliative care in long term care facilities (LTCFs) in Europe. While a growing number of older people will require palliative care in institutionalized settings, palliative care has only recently beg ...

Early Prevention of Diabetes Complications in people with Hyperglycaemia in Europe (E-PREDICE)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2017,
"Background: A significant proportion of pre-diabetics, show macro and micro vascular complications associated with hyperglycaemia. Although many trials have demonstrated the efficacy of lifestyle and pharmaceutical interventions in diabetes prevention, no trial has evaluated the extent to which mid- and long-term complications can be prevented by early interventions on hyperglycaemia.Aims: To ass ...

Unbiased Biomarkers for the Prediction of Respiratory Disease Outcomes (U-BIOPRED)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2009, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2015,
RationaleThe inability of pre-clinical studies to predict clinical efficacy is a major bottleneck in drug development. In severe asthma this bottleneck results from: a lack of useful and validated biomarkers, underperforming pre-clinical models, inadequate and incomplete sub-phenotyping, and insufficient disease understanding.HypothesisThe use of biomarker profiles comprised of various types of hi ...

BIOmarkers of Robustness of Metabolic Homeostasis for Nutrigenomics-derived Health CLAIMS Made on Food (BIOCLAIMS)
Date du début: 1 mars 2010, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2015,
The food and health relationship focuses on maintenance of optimal health, both in terms of physiology and new European legislation. Yet, most accepted biomarkers quantify (intermediate) disease endpoints or damage. This has led to major problems in demonstrating health benefits and establishing health claims, and blocks competitive economic and health developments in the food sector. BIOCLAIMS de ...

Collaborative European effort to Develop Diabetes Diagnostics (CEED3)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2008, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2012,
"CEED3 (Collaborative European Effort to Develop Diabetes Diagnostics) has as its central objective, the development of diagnostic tools to differentiate specific subgroups of diabetic patients to allow individualisation of patient care. CEED3 will achieve this by integrating basic science findings from animal models, cell studies, and large scale genetic studies with clinical observations and tes ...

Lipid droplets as dynamic organelles of fat deposition and release: Translational research towards human disease (LipidomicNet)
Date du début: 1 mai 2008, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2012,
Lipids are central to the regulation and control of cellular processes by acting as basic building units for biomembranes, the platforms for the vast majority of cellular functions. Recent developments in lipid mass spectrometry have set the scene for a completely new way to understand the composition of membranes, cells and tissues in space and time by allowing the precise identification and quan ...

Nurse Forecasting: Human Resources Planning in Nursing (RN4CAST)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2009, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2011,
"Current human resources planning models in nursing are unreliable and ineffective as they consider volumes, but ignore effects on quality in patient care. The project RN4CAST aims innovative forecasting methods by addressing not only volumes, but quality of nursing staff as well as quality of patient care. RN4CAST is a consortium of 15 partners that will quantify in 11 European countries-Belgium, ...

"COPD Pathology: Addressing Critical gaps, Early Treatment and Innovative Concepts" (COPACETIC)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2008, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2010,
"COPD is the only chronic disease with an increasing mortality and it will constitute the 4th leading cause of death by 2035 world wide. To alleviate the burden of COPD an accurate and easy diagnosis in the early stages of COPD needs to be developed. Many studies strongly suggest that there is an individual genetic susceptibility to COPD: only 10-15% of all smokers develop COPD. In another study, ...
