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.…
The main point of this study is to detect in a controlled fashion if there is a relationship between CCSVI and MS. We focus on 5 parameters indicative of CCSVI: 1-reflux in the internal jugular vein (IJV) or in the vertebral vein (VV), or both with…
1. Validate and adjust the current classification criteria for systemic vasculitis2. Develop and validate new diagnostic criteria for systemic vasculitis
This research aims the usefullness of duplex mapping in systemic giant cell vasculitis. In determing the diagnosis, the duplex will be compared with the current gold standard, the 18F-FDG PET-CT, looking at the sensitivity and specificity of the…
The primary objective in this observational study is to determine microcirculatory profile in preterm and term neonates. We would like to determine how the microcirculation changes in time during the phase of adaptation and correlate inter- and…
The aim of this study is to compare the 16S PCR technique with standard bacterial cultures of infected vascular grafts, mycotic aneurysms and non-infected aortic aneurysms.
The objective of this pilot study is to provide information about the usefulness of NIRS in the study of patients with JDM in the test configuration as described in the protocol. For this purpose, the microvascular oxygenation and hemodynamics in…
Primary objectives1. To investigate prospectively the prevalence of cardiovascular damage due to cancer treatment and it*s change over time.2. To investigate markers of early and late toxicity of cardiovascular damage due to cardiotoxic treatment.…
The main aim of the study is therefore to examine mu wave activity during observation, execution of movements and during movement imagery in comparison to a passive resting state and active relaxation condition in stroke patients and matched healthy…
The primary aim of this study is to evaluate 3 techniques (CEUS, 3D and SMI), that can perhaps improve the ultrasound assessment of GCA with regard to its diagnostic value when applied alone or in combination. The hypothesis is that the diagnostic…
The main research question is to compare the diagnostic accuracy of 7T MRI for cerebral vasculitis, with the standard diagnostic practice (SDP). The true nature of the disease will be assessed for all patients at the end of the study by re-…
