Dutch
Authors' recommendations: The committee concludes that the substantial disadvantages and risks of the study with the video capsule do not outweigh the benefits, given the unconvincing scientific reliability and the unconvincing public health value of the research. Therefore the committee considers the benefit risk ratio of the application as negative. Consequently it recommends the minister to reject the license application, as presented by the applicant, for the study into the prevalence of gastrointestinal tract disorders with video capsule within the Rotterdam study.
