The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility, clinical effectiveness and cost effectiveness of a caregiver mediated exercises programme combined with e-health services (CARE4STROKE+) to improve self-reported health status and reduce…
The primary objective of this study is to assess whether a liberal (6.5 mmol/l) transfusion strategy compared to a restrictive (6.0 mmol/l) transfusion strategy lowers the incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE). MACE is defined as a…
We aim to compare the effectiveness, feasibility and safety of both metformin and sitagliptin in patients with TIA or minor ischemic stroke and impaired glucose tolerance. Furthermore, we will assess whether a slow increase in dose of metformin over…
The main objective of this study is to assess the effect of an acute cardiovascular event on the local and the systemic inflammatory state in humans with AMI as well as the reversibility of these effects after 3 months.
Explore difference in perforating artery pulsatility index between two patients groups with small vessel disease (history of lacunar infarct and deeply located haemorrhage) and healthy controls.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVETo evaluate the safety and tolerability of single ascending, intravenous doses of ACT017 administered as a 6-hour intravenous (i.v.) infusionSECONDARY OBJECTIVES* To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of single ascending, intravenous…
To detect ophthalmic differences between patients and controles. To detect (early) changes in the retina in (pre)symptomatic RVCL disease carriers, in order to find a *biomarker* for disease stage and progression.
To assess if information about aortic calcification obtained from routine preoperative ultra low-dose chest CT reconstructed with IR lowers the postoperative stroke rate in patients undergoing heart surgery by optimizing surgical strategy compared…
Primary Objective: To assess which measures of microvascular function on 7T MRI are affected in patients with CADASIL, relative to controls.
Area of interest (study setting): Specific aims:Transient triggers and chronic riskfactors (case-crossover and casecontrol)(1) To investigate frequency and strength of association between transient physical andpsychological triggers and early-onset…
To investigate whether an interactive internet-based intervention strategy targeting vascular and lifestyle-related risk factors can lead to improvement of cardiovascular risk profile and prevention of cardiovascular disease and whether this in turn…
[1] To develop robust assays for quantification of novel CSF/blood biomarkers of CAA.[2] To determine the contribution of CAA to cognitive decline in dementia and ICH patients, using CAA-specific biomarkers
In this study we aim to investigate the presence of CAN in diabetic patients scheduled for elective major abdominal and thoracic surgery and its relation with perioperative hemodynamic changes.
The ,aim of Wake-Up is to provide a new safe and effective treatment option for acute stroke patients waking up with stroke symptoms or patients with unknown symptom onset. Every year about 2milion patients suffer a stroke in the EU and up to 20% of…
To assess whether temporary discontinuation of antihypertensive therapy in mildly cognitively impaired older patients on antihypertensive treatment improves cognitive and psychological functioning.
The aim of the current study is to identify couplings of muscle activation patterns (muscle synergies) in reaching movements in stroke patients. Insight in the motor control of stroke patients can contribute to improve the disabled arm functioning…
The primary objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of white matter lesions and subjective/objective neurocognitive functioning in women several years after pregnancy compared to nulliparous women The secondary objective is to…
The primary aim of the proposed study is to assess whether stenting for symptomatic vertebral artery stenosis >= 50% is feasible and safe. A secondary aim is to assess the rate of new vascular events in the territory of the vertebrobasilar…
EXPLICIT aims tot obtain better functional outcome by early intensive rehabilitation. Next to clinical tests to measure improvement in function, neuroplasticity is assessed by fMRI, TMS and haptic robots. The combination of clinical outcome measures…
The aim of this study is to compare the integrity of the corticospinal tract and cortical reorganization of shoulder girdle muscle representations in chronic stroke patients with and without GHS as well as healthy controls.
