De probleemstelling van dit onderzoek luidt: Wat is de relatie tussen justitiële vrijheidsbeneming en de emotionele verwerking daarvan door gedetineerde jeugdigen? En wat kan op basis van de literatuur gezegd worden over de effecten, van emoties ervaren door jeugdigen tijdens een vrijheidsbeneming, op recidive na detentie. INHOUD: 1. Inleiding 2. Onderzoeksmethode 3. Vrijheidsbeneming en emotionele verwerking 4. Individuele kenmerken van jongeren 5. Kenmerken van vrijheidsbeneming 6. Sociale omgeving 7. Slo

Criminogene en beschermende factoren bij jongeren die een basisonderzoek ondergaan

This study provides an overview of the problems encountered by juveniles at the beginning of the judicial chain. The insights gained into these problems are a major step for the range of interventions on which the Ministry of Justice will focus its attention during the next few years

Effect of Nocturnal Haemodialysis on Body Composition

Background: Haemodialysis patients have a high risk of malnutrition which is associated with increased mortality. Nocturnal haemodialysis (NHD) is associated with a significant increase in protein intake compared with conventional haemodialysis (CHD). It is unclear whether this leads to improved nutritional status. Therefore, we studied whether 1 year of NHD is associated with a change in body composition. Methods: Whole-body composition using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) and normalised protein catabolic rate (nPCR) were measured in 11 adult patients before and 1 year after the transition from CHD (12 h dialysis/week) to NHD (28-48 h dialysis/week). Similar measurements were performed in a matched control group of 13 patients who stayed on CHD. Differences between groups were analysed with linear mixed models. Results: At baseline, nPCR, total mass, fat-free mass, and fat mass did not differ significantly between the CHD and NHD groups. nPCR increased in the NHD group (from 0.96 +/- 0.23 to 1.12 +/- 0.20 g/kg/day; p = 0.027) whereas it was stable in the CHD group (0.93 +/- 0.21 at baseline and 0.87 +/- 0.09 g/kg/day at 1 year, n.s.). The change in nPCR differed significantly between the two groups (p = 0.027). We observed no significant differences in the course of total mass, fat-free mass, and fat mass during the 1-year observation period between the NHD and CHD groups. Conclusions: One year of NHD had no significant effect on body composition in comparison with CHD, despite a significantly higher protein intake in patients on NHD. (C) 2014 S. Karger AG, Base

Workshop on DNA repair.

A workshop on DNA repair with emphasis on eukaryotic systems was held, under the auspices of the EC Concerted Action on DNA Repair and Cancer, at Noordwijkerhout (The Netherlands) 14-19 April 1991. The local organization of the meeting was done under the auspices of the Medical Genetic Centre South-West, The Netherlands (MGC), c/o Department of Radiation Genetics and Chemical Mutagenesis, University of Leiden (The Netherlands). Local organizers were: D. Bootsma (chairman), W. Ferro, J.H.J. Hoeijmakers, A.R. Lehmann, P.H.M. Lohman, L. Mullenders, and A.A. van Zeeland (secretarial assistance: Mrs. C. Escher-van Heerden and Mrs. R. Bontre). Over 190 scientists participated, and the format of the meeting followed that of the 1987 workshop on the 'Molecular Aspects of DNA Repair' (Friedberg et al., 1987). Plenary review talks in the mornings were followed, in the afternoon, by poster viewing in three or four parallel sessions. Groups of 15-20 posters were discussed in detail, and later on, in plenary sessions, chairpersons of the poster discussions reviewed the afternoons' posters. The principal themes of the meeting were the isolation and characterisation of repair genes and proteins, repair in specific sequences, consequences of defective DNA repair, and new methods for detecting DNA damage and repair. Remarkable progress has been made recently in all of these areas, and many exciting new results were presented. It is impossible to summarize all contributions to this (intensive) one-week meeting. Therefore, and for the sake of coherence, presentations that did not fit easily into any of the general themes of the meetings have not been included
