The primary objective is to assess neuropsychological function in X-ALD patients without active cerebral demyelinating disease. Data of minors will be compared to matched healthy controls. Data of adults will be compared to reference values. The…
The main goal of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of using 1) passive treadmill belt speed perturbations to measure spinal reflex activity in the calf muscles; and 2) active real-time visual feedback on dedicated gait parameters to highlight…
To evaluate the effects of long-term intranasal oxytocin on social behaviour in children with PWS and to compare the effects of different doses and frequencies of oxytocin administration
1. Immunology and Pathology:To determine the immune response of patients with simple and complex appendicitis in order to identify markers which distinguish between simple and complex appendicitis.2.Clinical and Imaging:To analyze the differences in…
The above anounced studies suggest that some abnormalities in the Wnt pathway can be expected to affect development and function of the brain, potentially leading to recognizable behavioural phenotypes. Given the key role of APC in the Wnt pathway,…
The main objective of this prospective population-based study of patients with proximal SMA in the Netherlands is to register SMA patients in the Netherlands in a socalled SMA-database to study prevalence and severity of SMA types 1-4, to perform…
The overall aim of this project is to elucidate the interaction between stress and epileptic seizures in childhood epilepsy. The specific aim of this study is to compare the possible differences in stress hormone regulation, hippocampal function and…
To determine whether the attenuated salivary cortisol response in children with asthma can be explained by the maintenance use of inhaled cortiocosteroids, the chronic inflammatory disease, or the attenuated exercise capacity.
Objective: To test the hypotheses that Feedback Informed Treatment together with treatment as usual will show significant more improvement than treatment as usual alone.
Primary Objective: Investigate whether early valganciclovir treatment of children with SNHL of * 20 dB, unilateral or bilateral, and a confirmed congenital CMV infection can prevent deterioration of the hearing loss at follow-up (age 18 * 22 months…
Primary Objective: Identification of rare variants in candidate genes and regulatory elements in pediatric IBD patients. Secondary Objective(s): To determine the functional consequences of identified genetic variants in IBD, we will correlate…
Analyse costs and effects of point of care (POC) C-reactive protein (CRP) measurement in children with non-severe lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) in primary care.
1) To perform gene mutation analysis in family members of patients carrying a proven mutation in the candidate gene.2) To determine the clinical, biochemical and radiological characteristics of carriers of a mutation in the candidate gene.3) To…
The primary objective is to assess the treatment effect on response rate (MDS: either completeremission [CR], partial remission [PR], or marrow CR; JMML: either clinical completeremission [cCR] or clinical partial remission [cPR]); at Cycle 3 Day 28…
The aim of this study is to validate known, and identify novel allelic variants which may play a role in the risk of cisplatin-induced ototoxicity in a substantial international cohort of children diagnosed with cancer.
We aim to measure the vitamin D status (25(OH)D) and prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in Western and non-Western infants and toddlers aged six months to four years in the Netherlands. We will assess the cross sectional association between vitamin…
The aim of Prevent CardioKids is to evaluate to what extend disturbed vascular function markers are present in children of different weight categories and whether these are age dependent. Also differences * and relationships between * vascular…
