Primary Objective: to show the differences in distribution of microbial DNA proximal versus distal in the colon as well as luminal composition versus mucosa adherent. Secondary Objective: to test whether bowel lavage has influence on the microbial…
to investigate the course of the pancreatic enzymes (serum amylase, serum lipase and urinary amylase) related to the course and stage of acute pancreatitis and thereby calculating the diagnostic accuracy of each pancreatic enzyme for acute…
To test the hypothesis that salivary pepsin is able to predict outcome of treatment in GERD suspected infants.
(1) To compare adenoma miss rates (AMR) between Endocuff Vision-assisted colonoscopy (EAC) and conventionalcolonoscopy (CC)(2) To compare adenoma detection rates (ADR) between EAC and CC(3) To assess whether a proposed increased ADR and reduced AMR…
To identify the most effective and safe long-term S. aureus carriage decolonization strategy in HPN patients. Ultimately this willlead to less antimicrobial resistance, less catheter removals and lower mortality rates. Also, other chronic…
Primary objectives:to describe the composition of intestinal microbiota in the course of pediatric IBD-patients by IS-proto describe the composition of intestinal microbiota of apparently healthy children, aged 4-17 years, by IS-pro Secondary…
Determine the technical success, diagnostic accuracy, safety and quality of procedure (evaluated by the endoscopist) of the E.G.Scan* compared to conventional upper endoscopy in patients referred for diagnostic upper endoscopy.
To compare the additional diagnostic yield obtained by using the PeerScope System* extended view vs. the diagnostic yield obtained by the Standard view colonoscopy.In addition, time measurements including time to cecum, time for withdrawal and…
Comparing differentiation and detection of neoplasia in patients with ulcerative colitis undergoing surveillance, by ETMI and CE, in a randomised trial.
We aim to test the hypothesis that EndoCuff improves totaal number of adenomas detected and ADR compared with regular colonoscopy. In other words, we'll study if the Endocuff colonoscopy detects more polyps.
To determine the difference in EGG patterns in a fasting state and after a test meal between healthy controls and patients suffering from splanchnic ischemia (both single and multiple vessel stenosis). We hypothesize that patients with splanchnic…
Feasibility and accuracy of the Olympus Extra Wide Angle View colonoscope for the detection of colorectal lesions in comparison with the Exera III study
In the present study we aim to test the hypothesis that the reservoir of HEV in the Netherlands are animals that are bred for meat consumption. Therefore we want to compare the HEV seroprevalence in vegetarians and in people with a very low meat/…
Determine the diagnostic accuracy of the E.G.Scan 2.0* compared to conventional upper endoscopy in patients referred for diagnostic upper endoscopy to evaluate esophageal disorders.
1) Prevalence of celiac disease in a Dutch cohort of adult type 1 diabetes patients. 2) Investigation of the long term complications of type 1 diabetes patients with concomitant celiac disease
The overall objective of this study is an improvement in (early) diagnosis of NEC and its life-threatening complications, thus to be able to detect children who are *at risk* for NEC and its complications as early as possible. To this end we will as…
Assessment of the detection of neoplastic lesions in patients with longstanding ulcerative colitis, using different endoscopic imaging techniques: A: Chromo-endoscopy, methylene blue 0.1% (HDTV Olympus)B: HDTV Olympus colonoscopes and NBIC: Chromo-…
The aim of this study is to assess the change of ammonia exhaled in Helicobacter pylori (HP) positive patients compared with patients that are not HP infected after urea administration. In principle, in this pilot study, the results of Kearney et al…
The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to determine the affect of screening on the Gastrointestinal symptoms (GIS) and Health Related Quality of Life (HRQL) in asymptomatic first degree relatives of CD patients. On the basis of the results,…
The aim of this pilotstudy is to find (an) accurate marker(s) of anastomotic leakage at an early postoperative timepoint.
