Gut dysbiosis drives disease processes driving morbidity and mortality in acute pancreatitis, such as infected pancreatic necrosis, and (persistent) multiple organ failure. A decrease in commensal members of the bacterial microbiome allows for…
Breast cancer is the most common type of female cancer worldwide. Early detection has proven to have a positive influence on the prognosis and survival rate. An important aid in the detection and diagnosis of breast cancer is the use of medical…
It is the aim of this study to establish an integrated risk profile including clinical risk factors, AF recurrence patterns, anatomical and electrophysiological characteristics, circulating biomarkers and individual genetic background, to predict…
Primary hypothesis: Octane concentrations in exhaled breath facilitate early detection of ARDS in ICU patients. Secondary hypotheses: - ARDS resolution is associated with a decrease in octane in exhaled breath. - Additional biomarkers of ARDS can be…
It is hypothesized that taste and smell disturbances are common among GIST patients using TKIs.
DBS leads to a symptom reduction in patients with OCD
Benign liver tumors and cysts carry a significant burden on the quality of life in some cases. Apart from impairing symptoms, psychological burden might provide sufficient ground for surgical intervention. There is a variable approach to them…
Current frailty screening practice can be improved in specialized burn care
Based on clinical experience in our multidisciplinary team caring for children with PAH and CHD, we expect that children with PAH and their families suffer from decreased psychosocial QoL compared to healthy norms. We expect psychosocial…
We hypothesize our body surface mapping system will be able to detect origin of idiopathic ventricular arrhythmia with high accuracy.
The banded gastric bypass might be a possible therapy to increase weight loss and decrease long term weight regain in the super morbidly obese patients.
Self-paced treadmill walking increases the energetic cost of walking and is related to the variability of biomechanical and spatiotemporal parameters and muscle activation patterns.
1. We hypothesize that well-trained strength athletes (using AAS) will have significantly greater organ volume when compared to well-trained strength athletes (not using AAS) and recreationally active participants (not using AAS). 2. We hypothesize…
Appropriate use and prescription of a lower limb prosthesis for people with leg amputation through or above the knee, can increase the efficiency of the integrated care around the leg prosthesis.
Patients with persistent symptoms attributed to Lyme borreliosis report a substantial disease burden and a poor quality of life. Little is known about the long-term outcomes of patients with persistent symptoms attributed to Lyme borreliosis. The…
Supervised rehabilitation with hand therapy in the first three months after total joint arthroplasty is beneficial to education only, in improving functional outcome.
EPOS measurements are non-inferior to Tcpo2 measurements
We hypothesize that by adding CTP in the workup of patients with acute ischemic stroke, the number of futile EVTs is reduced and that the outcome for patients arriving late is improved by increasing eligibility, making CTP cost-effective by…
PDRP expression in iRBD patients increases over time and may be used to track / predict phenoconversion to parkinsonism.
