The main objective of this study is to explore two novel MRI techniques to characterize myocardial properties that are expected to be useful for the diagnosis of various forms of cardiomyopathy. Furthermore, we will explore whether different stages…
The main objective of the study is to document cardiovascular dysfunction found in rheumatoid arthritis and gout patients using cardiac imaging techniques echocardiography and cardiac MRI.
The goal of the planned studies is to determine the significance of afferent and efferent motor processes in facial expressions that may impact evaluative judgments or responses induced by linguistic and pictorial representations of facial…
To investigate whether children with OI who use a wheelchair (for long distances) can reliably perform a valid shuttle ride test in order to assess the levels of health-related fitness in this group.
To investigate what the ideal moment to vaccinate would be, early (after 2-6 months) or late (after 9-12 months) after cessation of rituximab. Secondly to study the immune-response to vaccination with influenza virus vaccine after treatment with…
Theoretically the anatomical reconstruction technique should give better results in rotational stability due to a more anatomical placement of the ACL-graft. Though it is difficult to test this correlating to functional outcome, because in current…
Quantify inflammatory response (through IL-8 production) of bronchial (both commercial available cells and cultivated brushed infant cells) when exposing these to gastric juice from: hospitalized Infants, before and during PPI treatment and age…
Primary ObjectiveDifference in incidence of an avulsion injury and morphological changes of the levator ani muscle after a first normal vaginal delivery between participants with and without a mediolateral episiotomy.Secondary ObjectiveChanges in…
The current study will focus on the effects of an intensive programme of exposure of prism adaptation (i.e. daily exposure during two weeks) and compare these to sham adaptation.
If normal doubt occurs, will OCD patients differ from non-OCD anxiety patients and healthy controls in how much uncertainty they will experience and will OCD patients respond to this with more perseveration (chekcing behavior) than non-OCD anxiety…
1. Are there differences between patients and controls in circadian movement rhythmicity and sleep duration?2. Are these objective measures associated with subjective sleep complaints?3. Are these objective measures associated with decreased quality…
- To assess the burden of disease of congenital CMV infection in the Netherlands at the age of 5 to 6 years through the assessment of the occurrence of sensorineural hearing loss due to congenital CMV infection.- To establish the burden of disease…
To get more insight into lymphocyte kinetics during immune reconstitution after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
To study the differences in adipose tissue, liver and circulating levels of RBP4 in lean versus obese, diabetic and obese insulin, non-diabetic subjects in relation to glucose fluxes and hepatic triglyceride content
To investigate the release of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) following major hepatic resection with or without VIO and to correlate the outcomes to the acute inflammatory response and clinical parameters for hepatocellular damage.
• To increase the sensitivity of the current MRI methods for detecting the changes caused by NPSLE through the scans made on the 7 Tesla scanner, since the higher field strength will lead to a higher signal to noise ratio and higher resolution. • To…
1. What is the complication rate of the initial antibiotic treatment strategy for acute simple appendicitis (radiological proven) in children aged 7-17 years old?
The overall aim of this project is to elucidate the interaction between stress and epileptic seizures in childhood epilepsy. The specific aim of this study is to compare the possible differences in stress hormone regulation, hippocampal function and…
To assess the prevalence, severity and impact of arthropathy in patients with moderate or severe VWD and a history of documented DDAVP or clotting factor concentrate treatment for joint bleeds. To compare arthropathy in these patients to age, FVIII…
Primary objective: to assess cortical activity post stroke in a repetitive way to determine cortical involvement in dedicated motor tasks and to relate cortical activity to clinical outcome prospectively after stroke. Secondary objective: to assess…
