To identify pathogenic bacterial biofilms in UC-patients with and without neoplasia in tandem with host factors such as barrier defects and carcinogenic pathway activation in a prospective cohort study.
Primary Objective:First we need to establish that patients with an eating disorder and healthy controls differ in mental imagery. So, the first aim of our research is to compare the nature and characteristics (emotionality, vividness and perspective…
To investigate whether sodium and potassium mutations are found in a cohort of patients with small fiber neuropathy, painful diabetic neuropathy (versus diabetes patients with no or only minor symptoms) and in patients with breast, ovarium or…
Main study:We want to assess whether bleeding risk in women with uterine leiomyomas is associated with CK activity and attenuated platelet aggregation.Objective of pilot study:Firstly, to perform a feasibility pilot of CK/AK measurement in menstrual…
Primary objectives:- To investigate possible differences in driving performances between premanifest gene carriers, manifest HD, and control subjects.- To explore if different aspects of cognitive functioning might be a predictor of fitness to drive…
This study aims at, first, assessing the most relevant exposure aspects of night-shift work and, second, identifying biomarkers for both acute and chronic circadian disruption associated to these specific nightshift work aspects. By applying…
Primary Objective:Pilot study: Selection of the titanium derivatives which are capable of penetrating the skin, and thus can be used in the full study as patch test materials.Full study: To compare the results of three different diagnostic tests…
Hypothesis: gaseous signaling molecules influence placental vasomotor activity to compensate for hypoxemia. Metabolites of these vasoactive molecules can be found in the blood and urine and can indicate whether this (compensatory) mechanism is used…
The aim of this study is to determine whether male microchimerism is present in patients with MRKH syndrome. This would be a sign of intrauterine cell trafficking - and possible AMH transfer- from male to female co-twin. This placental blood…
The primary objective of the study is to determine whether patients with PA have a higher level of arterial wall inflammation than patients with essential hypertension. Secondary Objectives: To determine whether circulating monocytes of patients…
We aim to gain insight into the incidence and severity of CIPN and its influence on patient-reported outcomes (i.e. health related quality of life (HRQoL), disease-specific complaints, depression, fatigue, sleep problems) among a prospective…
