In this prospective observational cohort study we aim to study the potential clinical consequences of antibiotic use in early life, by focussing on the incidence of eczema, as well as food allergy, upper respiratory tract infections (URTI), lower…
The STEM study presented here aims to increase our knowledge of the most common intestinal, gastric and liver epithelial diseases with the ultimate goal to treat these disorders. Particularly, children that have severe malfunction of their…
1) To identify new predictors of ST, in particular of late and very late ST, and of drug eltuing stent thrombosis. 2) To observe clinical outcomes after an episode of ST.
Our first objective is two-fold; part of it is to evaluate the suitability of the dual task paradigm as a measure for listening effort in a series of simulation experiments. We will compare a linguistic and a non linguistic secondary task in this…
The main objective of this study is to detect potential biomarkers for the differentiation of PD and DLB and the differentiation of PD subtypes by using neuroimaging.
This study will answer the question if (repeated) abdominal amnioninfusion after midtrimester PPROM with associated oligohydramnios improves perinatal survival and prevents pulmonary hypoplasia and other neonatal morbidities. Moreover, it will…
2. STUDY OBJECTIVESSpecific Aim 1. To determine whether Tako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy is associated with hyper reactivity of the neurohormonal and cardiovascular systems. Hypothesis 1: Patients with a clinical history of Tako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy have…
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether thyroid hormone replacement therapy in type 2 diabetic patients suffering from overt hypothyroidism will improve muscular mitochondrial function, lower ectopic fat accumulation in muscle and liver,…
The primary objective of this study is to determine the impact of a diagnosis and type of treatment of cancer, ageing and their interaction on wellbeing of older cancer patients. Furthermore, we aim to determine the different psychosocial…
Our primary objective is to investigate the development of structural and functional connectivity in autism and ADHD in comparison to the typical development of connectivity. A secondary objective is to investigate the effects of ADHD and autism…
Is DEXA accurate to predict bone loss of the femur before undergoing hip revision arthroplasty and provide a tool for quantification of bone loss of the femur before hip revision arthroplasty? Can DEXA be used to monitor bone remodelling after hip…
We will examine the activation status of platelets, the content of platelet granules, and activation of de novo synthesis of mitogenic proteins during and after a partial liver resection in patients with a malign or benign tumor including distant…
Run-in phase I: To confirm the safety and tolerability of BIBF 1120 up to a dose level of 200 mg b.i.d added to a standard dose of cisplatin/gemcitabine in first line NSCLC patients with squamous cell histology. Pharmacokinetics of BIBF 1120 and…
The focus of this present study will be to better understand the mechanism of ONS in MICCH. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the putative differences in rCBF at 6 months follow-up compared to baseline between responders of ONS…
Primary Objective: 1) To study impairment and developmental delay in social cognition (and related cognitive functions) caused by brain damage in patients treated for a brain tumour in childhood as compared to a reference group of chronically ill…
Our primary objective is to identify the brain networks involved in tremor generation in homogeneous groups of ET patients. In addition we will investigate the differences on a behavioral level during goal-directed movements between ET subgroups and…
The primary objective is to generate genome-wide miRNA profiles of patient material (tissue samples and blood). The secondary objectives are to compare miRNA expression profiles to investigate what role differences in miRNA expression have in the…
The aim of this project is to elucidate the mechanisms underlying one of the most incapacitating psychiatric disorders, psychosis. Despite antipsychotic treatment, up to a third of patients with psychotic illness continue to experience significant…
Identification of the underlying genes of MMIHS
The overall goal of this research is to study whether online game addiction is related to deficiencies in the brain areas associated with behavioral inhibition: the dorsal prefrontal cortex, inferior frontal cortex and anterior cingulate.
