The aim of this research is developing a non-invasive a method of early detection of CIS using scrotal ultrasound and semen diagnostic on CIS-cells. The results of this research will be used for the set-up of a screening study of CIS at men with an…
Objective: To investigate whether binocular patching in combination with posture adherence is superior to posture adherence alone in achieving visualization of the superior fundus quadrants or not.
1. To decrease the proportion of infants treated with antibiotics for > 48 - 72 hours with possible or unlikely infection, with unchanged outcome. 2. To reduce the duration of antibiotic therapy
The goal of this study is to find an efficient early diagnostic and prognostic marker of myocardial ischemia and myocardial infarction. Extended screening of gene expression profiles in circulating progenitor cells in the peripheral blood of…
The objective of this study is threefold:1) compare the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of brief CT added to maintenance AD versus maintenance AD alone versus guided tapering or discontinuation of AD with brief CT.2) examine whether the…
Our primary objective is to determine the incidence of EPS after kidney transplantation in patients previously treated by PD. We hypothesize that there is an increasing incidence of symptomatic and asymptomatic EPS after kidney transplantation.
The main objective is to show whether imaging characteristics assessed at baseline can predict clinical events in patients with a 30-69 % symptomatic carotid stenosis.
PrimaryTo investigate sensitivity and specificity of 3.0 Tesla MRI and MRS for dimension and composition assessment of carotid artery plaques, in particularly those plaques with lipid rich necrotic cores (LRNC), with the aim to develop these…
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of 89Zr-bevacizumab PET imaging as a biomarker before and during treatment with everolimus in patients with metastatic RCC. 89Zr-bevacizumab PET imaging will be regarded a promising…
The aim of this study if PET using [18F] fluorothymidine (FLT), an imaging biomarker, performed at week 10 of concomitant radio/chemotherapy for patients with newly diagnosed GBM is superior to MRI at 10 weeks to evaluate treatment response and to…
To discriminate the acquired anti-hormonal resistance phenotypes in patients based on ER expression levels by FES-PET in order to select patients eligible for estrogen therapy.
- To investigate whether the effect of early-start rasagiline treatment (according to the ADAGIO study protocol) provided long term benefits over delayed-start.- To investigate the long-term effects of rasagiline in PD subjects who participated in…
To determine the value of a post coital test in the basic fertility work up in WHO class II subfertile women ovulatory after clomiphene citrate (CC).
The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to determine the affect of screening on the Gastrointestinal symptoms (GIS) and Health Related Quality of Life (HRQL) in asymptomatic first degree relatives of CD patients. On the basis of the results,…
Main questions:1. What is the success rate of antireflux surgery in children (reflux control) measured by means of validated and standardised investigation techniques?2. What is the effect of antireflux surgery on gastro-esophageal motility/function…
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate whether procalcitonin measurements are able to reduce antibiotic usage in Dutch intensive care units by reducing the duration of antibiotic treatment.
The main objective of this study is to increase current insights into the role of auditory and cognitive factors in the reduced ability to understand speech in noisy environment, particularly for hearing impaired people. These insights will help to…
· Explore the relative impacts of iodine concentration versus iodine delivery rate on intra-coronary attenuation. · Describe the effect of iodine concentration on contrast bolus characteristics e.g. bolus homogeneity, time-to-peak, and pressure…
The primary objective is to determine if disease associated lesions in patients with VHLD can be visualized with 89Zr-bevacizumab PET scans. Secondary objectives are to explore if 89Zr-bevacizumab PET imaging can differentiate progressive from non-…
Research questions:1. Is web-based monthly monitoring using the Asthma Control Test (ACT) cost-effective?2. Is asthma management guided by the fraction of nitric oxide in exhaled air (FENO) cost-effective?We hypothesize that both strategies are…
