Josua van Iperen (1726-1780) : gereformeerd predikant ten tijde van de Verlichting

This dissertation focuses on the life and work of the Reformed minister Josua van Iperen (1726 - 1780), who picked his way through the opposing forces of orthodoxy and Enlightenment. He can be seen as an exponent of the large body of moderately enlightened ministers in the Republic. The first part of this dissertation (chapters one to five) will look at his life and career as a minister. The second part (chapters six to fifteen) will deal with his perception of his duties as a university-trained minister of religion, and also cover his wide variety of interests. The conclusion can be that in van Iperen we encounter a curious mixture of ‘old’ and ‘new’, of traditionalism and a certain measure of Enlightenment. This makes van Iperen, as representative of a broad class of reformed ministers in the eighteenth century Republic, a very interesting case study that can serve to clarify the multifaceted relationship between faith and Enlightenment.  Religious Studie

Het Hof van Sint Jan te Utrecht: over het dichten van een gat

For centuries the immunities of the town of Utrecht were distinguished by their enclosed and remarkably spacious character. After the reformation in 1580 these territories, inhabited by canons, were gradually becoming available for building. In recent history a new building project was realized in the former territory of one of the oldest immunities, the immunity of St John: ‘St John’s Court’ / ‘Hof van Sint Jan’. This did not take place without any resistance. On the site where a neglected multi-storey car park had caused trouble for years on end, an enclosed, combined residential and business complex arose, including controversial high-rise buildings. Residents, municipality, buildings aesthetics committee and the Department for the Preservation of Historic Buildings came into conflict with each other on this issue. In this article the building history is described on the basis of relevant material from the records and the various arguments are held against the light of the historical development. The development of the building plan took more than twenty years. The Department for the Preservation of Historic Buildings (RDMZ) initially based itself on the established designated use as a ‘garden’. The municipality, on the other hand, took the view that the RDMZ appealed to an outdated zoning plan. Due to lack of money a small-scale outline plan and a public municipal garden were not considered feasible. However, this point of view creates the deceptive impression that the designated uses in question have been superseded for reasons of contents. The RDMZ blamed the municipality for an unjust legitimization of the plan and unwillingness to contribute towards the costs of the development. Accepting lack of money as a ‘realistic approach’ was said to ignore the essence of the protection. On the basis of comparison with the historical development of the area, it may be concluded that this criticism of the legitimization as regards the contents of the building plan has proved to be just. Social pressure to put an end to the uninterrupted flow of plans for this relatively large open space, and the opposition of many years’ standing by a reluctant garage owner are more probable reasons for the realization of the building project. The RDMZ has made clear that it will not accept these grounds, but a significant impact of this on the building process has not taken place so far. Whether this has been just in view of the contents is doubtful.For centuries the immunities of the town of Utrecht were distinguished by their enclosed and remarkably spacious character.

Shango businessplan: gecontroleerd schelpdierkweeksysteem, van zaad tot aan consumptiemossel; systeemontwerp, protocollen, technisch-economische haalbaarheid

Het natuurlijke aanbod van uitgangsmateriaal voor schelpdierteelt(zaad) vertoont jaarlijks sterke fluctuaties. Er is daarom behoefte aan nieuwe technieken ten behoeve van de zaadvoorziening. Een nieuwe techniek is productie van zaad op land in een hatchery/nursery Het project is gericht op de mossel (Mytilus Edulis) en het ontwikkelen en uittesten van een prototype hatchery/nursery met growout systemen. De technische beschrijving beperkt zich tot op systeemniveau, inclusief het programma van eisen voor de benodigde componenten. Tevens worden de operationele aspecten in protocollen weergegeven. Tenslotte wordt aan het eind een technisch-economische beschouwing gegeven. De kostprijs voor hatcheryzaad is nog vele malen te hoog t.o.v. bodemzaad en mosselzaadinvang

Fokkerij op ziekteresistentie van Japanse oesters

Het oesterherpesvirus OsHV-1 µvar veroorzaakt hoge sterfte onder Japanse oesters in de Nederlandse kweekgebieden. De oestersector ondervindt problemen van deze sterfte. In deze studie is geïnventariseerd of een fokprogramma waarbij oesters geselecteerd worden op resistentie tegen het oesterherpesvirus en vervolgens worden voortgeplant in een hatchery uitkomst kan geven voor deze problematiek. Ook is bekeken of een fokprogramma gebruikt kan worden ter verbetering van groei en conditie van oesters

1. Lumbosacral radicular pain

Introduction: Patients suffering lumbosacral radicular pain report radiating pain in one or more lumbar or sacral dermatomes. In the general population, low back pain with leg pain extending below the knee has an annual prevalence that varies from 9.9% to 25%. Methods: The literature on the diagnosis and treatment of lumbosacral radicular pain was reviewed and summarized. Results: Although a patient's history, the pain distribution pattern, and clinical examination may yield a presumptive diagnosis of lumbosacral radicular pain, additional clinical tests may be required. Medical imaging studies can demonstrate or exclude specific underlying pathologies and identify nerve root irritation, while selective diagnostic nerve root blocks can be used to confirm the affected level(s). In subacute lumbosacral radicular pain, transforaminal corticosteroid administration provides short-term pain relief and improves mobility. In chronic lumbosacral radicular pain, pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) treatment adjacent to the spinal ganglion (DRG) can provide pain relief for a longer period in well-selected patients. In cases of refractory pain, epidural adhesiolysis and spinal cord stimulation can be considered in experienced centers. Conclusions: The diagnosis of lumbosacral radicular pain is based on a combination of history, clinical examination, and additional investigations. Epidural steroids can be considered for subacute lumbosacral radicular pain. In chronic lumbosacral radicular pain, PRF adjacent to the DRG is recommended. SCS and epidural adhesiolysis can be considered for cases of refractory pain in specialized centers.</p
