I haven't thought about this for years! Dating recent recalls of vivid memories (2006)
Smeets, T, Geraerts, E, Jelicic, M, Smeets, E
In three studies, we examined memories for previous recall. In Studies I and 2, undergraduates were asked whether they had vivid memories about various childhood events. After a one-hour (Study 1) or...

The separation of tylosin by micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography with a mixed micelle system is described. Good selectivity was obtained with sodium phosphate buffer (80 mM, pH 7.5)...
Verschueren, P., Voskuyl, A., Smeets, T, Zwinderman, K., Breedveld, F., Tak, P.
OBJECTIVE—Histological analysis of random quadriceps muscle biopsy specimens can be used to detect vasculitis in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This study aimed at determining the...
Smeets, T, Kraan, M, Galjaard, S, Youssef, P, Smith, M, Tak, P
OBJECTIVES—Examination of synovial tissue (ST) obtained at surgery because of end stage destructive rheumatoid arthritis (RA) showed that macrophages and fibroblasts are the major cell types at the...
Smith, M, Barg, E, Weedon, H, Papengelis, V, Smeets, T, Tak, P, ...
Background: Synovial biopsies are used to study synovial immunopathology and are increasingly applied for the evaluation of new therapeutic strategies in chronic arthritis. Therefore, it is essential...
Smeets, T, Barg, E, Kraan, M, Smith, M, Breedveld, F, Tak, P
Background: Synovial tissue (ST) from end stage destructive rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and arthroscopic biopsies obtained during active inflammation might exhibit different characteristics.
Haringman, J, Kraan, M, Smeets, T, Zwinderman, K, Tak, P
Background: Chemokines and their receptors are considered important contributors in cell migration and inflammation in chronic inflammatory disorders. Chemokines affecting monocytes/macrophages are...
Activation of the STAT1 pathway in rheumatoid arthritis
Kasperkovitz, P, Verbeet, N, Smeets, T, Kraan, M, ...
Background: Expression of signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1), the mediator of interferon (IFN) signalling, is raised in synovial tissue (ST) from patients with rheumatoid...
Kraan, M, Haringman, J, Weedon, H, Barg, E, Smith, M, Ahern, M, ...
Objective: To determine immunohistological markers in synovial tissue of patients with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) which are associated with unfavourable disease outcome.
Differential effects of leflunomide and methotrexate on cytokine production in rheumatoid arthritis
Kraan, M, Smeets, T, Van Loon, M J, Breedveld, F, Dijkmans, B, Tak, P
Background: T cells have a pivotal role in RA. Leflunomide inhibits pyrimidine biosynthesis, to which T cells are especially susceptible, and therefore may have a different cytokine profile than...
Tumour necrosis factor α blockade in treatment resistant pigmented villonodular synovitis
Kroot, E, Kraan, M, Smeets, T, Maas, M, Tak, P, Wouters, J
Case report: A patient presented with severe treatment resistant PVNS of the right knee joint. Several conventional treatment regimens, including open surgical synovectomy and intra-articular...
Haringman, J, Gerlag, D, Zwinderman, A, Smeets, T, Kraan, M, Baeten, D, ...
Background: Previous work identified synovial sublining macrophage numbers as a potential biomarker for clinical efficacy in rheumatoid arthritis.
Van Holten, J, Smeets, T, Blankert, P, Tak, P
Objective: To determine the expression of IFNß in the synovial tissue of patients with RA, osteoarthritis, and reactive arthritis.
