To determine whether increased calcium and phosphate intake (2005 group) resulted in improved Bone Mineral Content (BMC) and Bone Mineral Density (BMD) compared to the group with less calcium and phosphate intake (2004 group) at the age of 8-10…
The aim of this study is to objectify nipple-areola complex sensitivity in women who underwent unilateral or bilateral prophylactic NSM in Erasmus MC-Daniel den Hoed Cancer Center and their satisfaction with this operation, compared to healthy women…

Investigate the value of percutaneous radiofrequency heat lesion, applied to the medial branch of the primary dorsal ramus; more specifically try to determine if a significant and long lasting pain reduction can be obtained as compared to a sham-…
Hypotheses: - The nutrient sensing receptors have a different spatial distribution along the intestinal tract.- The receptors: T1R2/T1R3, SGLT-1, G-protein coupled receptor 120, T1R1/T1R3, Pept1, G-protein coupled receptor 93, calcium sensing…
We expect that in people with multiple sclerosis the processing of energy substances such as sugars (energy metabolism)i n the brains is not optimal . In our view this could explain the progressive deterioration of the disease. Currently there are…
Primary objectives of INTACT III are:1) to prospectively compare the efficacy of Sacral Nerve Stimulation (SNS) with BOTOX® 100 U related to the Patient Perception of Bladder Condition (PPBC) questionnaire (Coyne 2006) and the reduction of urinary…
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the usability of PatientCoach by patients with asthma and/ or COPD,hypertension and/or Diabetes Mellitus.
The first aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of cognitive impairment in COPD patients compared with persons without COPD and to compare cognitive functioning between patients referred by their general practitioner, patients referred by…
The primary aim of this project is to examine the impact of heart failure on functional sympatholysis.
Investigate the value of percutaneous radiofrequency heat lesion applied to the ramus communicans; more specifically try to determine if a significant and long lasting pain reduction can be obtained as compared to a sham-operated group. In addition…
The evaluate which treatment of mallet fingers is better, the conventional mallet therapy via the hospital or the personalized treatment with intensive follow up via the handencentrum. This will be investigated for mallet fingers caused by an…
To Establish the usefulness of MRI for assessment of the rotator cuff in patients with an Affinis short prosthesis implanted in the shoulder.

The primary objective is to test the hypothesis that, after at least 15 weeks of daily administration (4 for titration, 7 of relatively stable dose, 4 at fixed doses; Study Period II), risperidone given orally in a dose of 0.25 - 3.0 mg/d depending…
The purpose of this clinical trial is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the Z-Lig* device for the treatment of ruptured ACL of the knee compared to allograft.
Primary ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of a tailored behavioral change intervention comprising CBT and physical activity on participation (as measured by the DM1-Activ scale) for severely fatigued patients with myotonic dystrophy type 1 compared to…
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…
Our primary aim is to conduct a large-scale study that investigates the impact of a specialized alliance training and evaluates the effect of the alliance training on the treatment process and outcome. Our secondary aim is to learn more about the…
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…
