This study will consist of two parts. In the primary observational part we will assess kinematic and kinetic walking patterns in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. Goal is to asses the correlation between progressive contractures and gait patterns. This…
Optimizing orthotic management in children with cerebral palsy to improve mobility and participation
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate AFO efficacy in children with spastic CP using outcome measures related to ICF the components of *body functions and structures* and *activities and participation*. The secondary aim is to identify…
Our proposed randomized controlled trial is the first making this head-to-head comparison in a *real life* primary care setting in the Netherlands. The primary research question is: does a 12-week combination therapy of open label varenicline and…
In this study the effectiveness of an ankle-foot orthosis on the walking ability and coordination in patients with Huntington's disease will be evaluated. Subject will be the question of the clinical relevance of wearing an AFO according to…
Pruritus is a frequent and debilitating symptom in patients with Primary Biliary Cirrhosis, Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis and other cholestatic liver diseases. Aim is to assess the effect of Colesevelam on cholestatic pruritus.
This study is being conducted in patients with familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) to:1. Assess the efficacy of colesevelam added to a maximal tolerated and stable regimen of statin and ezetimibe in further decreasing the low-density lipoprotein (…
Objective: Primary : To compare the difference in glucose nadir during the MMT on and off pre-treatment with colesevelam in RYGB-CCx patients with a hypoglycaemia (RYGB-CCx-hypo) in the first MMT Secondary:To evaluate the difference in number of…
To determine whether AFOs optimized for stiffness in patients with calf muscle weakness are superior to standard AFOs in reducing walking effort, as measured by energy cost of walking (ECW, in Jkg-1m-1), and 2) to build a model to predict required…
