The main purpose of this study is to determine the side effects of trastuzumab when it is given by each of these subcutaneous injection methods. The study will also gather information about whether and when the cancer comes back after taking…
The primary objective is to assess the 18-month incidence of inappropriate shocks in subjects implanted with the EMBLEM Subcutaneous Implantable Defibrillator (S-ICD) programmed with zone cutoffs at 200 bpm and 250 bpm and:- an indication for…
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…
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…
The objective of the study is to determine the protein profile of cerebrospinal fluid of non-pregnant women using mass-spectrometry.This study is a follow-up project on the previously performed study (LEPRA, CSF and pre-eclampsia, MEC 2007-087). In…
1). To compare temporal fluctuations of lung function and inflammatory biomarkers in blood, nasal lavage, exhaled air and urine between patients with asthma and controls.2). To investigate the change in variations of these biomarkers upon…
The primary goals of this study are to: i. Identify genetic variations responsible for PLP across the whole genomeMore than 90% of SNPs are found in introns or intergenic regions and most of them are probably of little functional consequence.…
To determine the effects, feasibility and costs of a multi-component cognitive behavioural intervention for reducing fear of falling and associated activity restriction in hip fracture patients admitted for geriatric rehabilitation.
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…
To compare the functional outcome of ORIF with a volar locking plate to closed reduction and plaster immobilisation in patients with dislocated extra-articular distal radius fractures.
• To increase the sensitivity of the current MRI methods for detecting the changes caused by NPSLE through the scans made on the 7 Tesla scanner, since the higher field strength will lead to a higher signal to noise ratio and higher resolution. • To…
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…
