Journal ArticleDOI
Quantification of clinical morbidity associated with schistosome infection in sub-Saharan Africa.
Marieke J. van der Werf,Sake J. de Vlas,Simon Brooker,Caspar W. N. Looman,Nico Nagelkerke,J. Dik F. Habbema,Dirk Engels +6 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that schistosomiasis remains an important public health problem in sub-Saharan Africa and the mortality rates due to non-functioning kidney and haematemesis at 150000 and 130000 per year are estimated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gastric cancer risk in patients with premalignant gastric lesions: a nationwide cohort study in the Netherlands.
Annemarie C. de Vries,Nicole C.T. van Grieken,Caspar W. N. Looman,M.K. Casparie,Esther de Vries,Gerrit A. Meijer,Ernst J. Kuipers +6 more
TL;DR: Patients with premalignant gastric lesions are at considerable risk of gastric cancer, and current surveillance of these patients is inconsistent with their cancer risk, and development of guidelines is indicated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serum antimüllerian hormone levels best reflect the reproductive decline with age in normal women with proven fertility: A longitudinal study
Ilse A.J. van Rooij,Frank J.M. Broekmans,G.J. Scheffer,Caspar W. N. Looman,J. Dik F. Habbema,Frank H. de Jong,Bart J.C.M. Fauser,Axel P. N. Themmen,Egbert R. te Velde +8 more
TL;DR: Serum AMH represents the best endocrine marker to assess the age-related decline of reproductive capacity, and shows the best consistency over time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anti-Müllerian Hormone Levels in the Spontaneous Menstrual Cycle Do Not Show Substantial Fluctuation
Wouter J. K. Hehenkamp,Caspar W. N. Looman,Axel P. N. Themmen,Frank H. de Jong,E.R. te Velde,Frank J.M. Broekmans +5 more
TL;DR: AMH levels measured through a full menstrual cycle did not show consistent fluctuation patterns in contrast to levels of FSH, LH, and estradiol, but random fluctuations were small, indicating that AMH can be relied on as a cycle-independent marker for ovarian reserve.
Journal ArticleDOI
Delaying childbearing: effect of age on fecundity and outcome of pregnancy.
B.M. van Noord-Zaadstra,Caspar W. N. Looman,H. Alsbach,J.D.F. Habbema,E.R. te Velde,J. Karbaat +5 more
TL;DR: After the age of 31 the probability of conception falls rapidly, but this can be partly compensated for by continuing insemination for more cycles, and the probability for an adverse pregnancy outcome starts to increase at about the same age.
