Dissection of etiology of myopia- identification of genetic risk factors- identification of environmental risk factors- evaluation of the long term safety of Artisan phakic intraocular lenses for the correction of high degree myopia
The aim of this project is to determine the possible use of biomarkers for non or delayed union in long bone fractures of the diaphyseal femur and tibia.
1) To compare (long-term) results of patients treated for Calcific Tendonitis with barbotage, versus patients treated for Calcific Tendonitis with other conservative standard-treatments2) An analysis of group characteristics and risk factors for CaT…
The primary objective of this study is to identify mutations associated with the development of a bicuspid aortic valve. To this end the study will focus on genes important for aortic valve formation. As an extension of the primary objective, a…
We intend to study the role of fronto-striatal circuitry and cognitive control in the inflexible behaviour that is a defining feature of autism.
We intend to study the effect of trastuzumab on the cardiac neuronal activity in patients with HER-2 positive breast cancer by using iodine-123 meta-iodobenzylguanidine (123I-MIBG) and cardiac imaging. 123I-MIBG, an analogue of the false…

The objectives of this study are to gain new insights on [1] the cause of a higher clopidogrel resistance in DMII patients[2] the increased production of tissue factor in monocytes in DMII patients
The objective of this study is to investigate the use of retinal oximetry in children, between five and seventeen years of age, with (vitreo-) retinopathies and oxygen-related diseases of the retina by means of an Oxymap T1 fundus camera.
The overall aim of the proposed project is to identify mild PID in elderly patients that distinguish patients with RRTI from individuals with a healthy ageing innate and adaptive immune system. In innate immunity, normal immunosenescence is…
Our aims are to analyse whether there is a specific HLA allele or allelic combination associated with susceptibility to LGI1 encephalitis, and to perform a pilot study with HLA subtyping in patients with encephalitis due to antibodies to Caspr2,…
The objective of this study is to analyse the retinal oxygenation in adults with the Oxymap T1 in patients with amblyopia and untreated or treated (vitreo-) retinopathies and compare them to a reference group of healthy eyes of amblyopic and Coats…
This study will investigate the relationship between autonomic nervous system function and pain in fibromyalgia, with a specific emphasis on awareness of bodily sensations, also refered to as interoceptive awareness, as a potential modulator of pain…
The current study assesses activation of hippocampus and prefrontal cortex during sleep spindles in veterans with and without PTSD. Furthermore, the correlation between sleep spindles and memory consolidation will be examined.
Immune regulation in Common Variable Immunodeficiency: the role of apoptosis and regulatory T cells.
To gain insight in the regulation of immune responses in patients with CVID
The objective of the study is to gain new insights in the causes of a higher clopidogrel resistence in type II diabetes mellitus patients
