The goal of this pragmatic, randomized controlled study is to determine the effectiveness of two relaxation techniques, eg. TM or HT added to the treatment of paediatric primary headaches in comparison to standard medical treatment (SMT). TM or HT…
The first line of research encompasses the frequency, severity, and (dis)similarities of perceptual and attentional impairments in near and far space. Differential impairments of near and far space processing are more likely to be found when spatial…
The goal of this project is to gain deeper understanding of the role of lexical connectivity on word finding difficulties in aphasia during recovery in spontaneous speech, through an investigation of age of acquisition, an investigation of the…
The first aim of the present study is to examine whether the pain experience in adults with Down syndrome (without dementia) differs from the pain experience in adults without intellectual disability, after correction for mentale age, comorbidity…
The overall aim of this study is to investigate the pathophysiology of ICH by investigating intracerebral hemorrhage in HCHWA-D patients. By investigating triggers for ICH, hematoma expansion, recurrence rate and outcome in HCHWA-D related ICH we…
The general objective of this project is to evaluate, for persons with a SCI, on the short and long term, the added value of a behavioural focused intervention, on top of a physical exercise intervention, on the level of everyday physical activity.…
Identify and further explore the structural brain alterations in ALS patients in comparison to healthy controls and to investigate the correlations of anatomical changes with clinical variables.
No studies concerning the relation between energy expenditure and balance control in stroke patients during dynamic conditions are published so far. Therefore, the aims of this study are;(1) To investigate the effect of balance manipulations on…
Primary objective: To evaluate whether there is a difference in all-cause mortality at 180 days or longer with a target temperature management at 33°C compared to a target temperature of 36°C, in patients unconscious after out-of-hospital OHCA.…
Obtain normal values of ventricle volumes and CSF circulation in healthy volunteers with MRI scanning.
Our main aim is to describe the 24-h circadian rhythm of skin and core body temperature in people with SCI and examine whether changes in melatonin and/or cortisol relate to the altered circadian rhythm in core body temperature recently described in…
The objective of this study is to determine the clinical efficacy of endovascular thrombolytic treatment (ET) as compared to standard treatment (any therapeutic heparin regimen) in patients with proven cerebral venous sinus thrombosis and a high…
To obtain more fundamental insight in the disrupted sensorimotor integration in patients with Parkinson*s disease, especially with regard to the impact of visual stimuli on the cerebral systems involved in walking. This knowledge provides a basis…
The present study intends to perform functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in order to obtain further insight in effects of selective attention on sensory processing. This study aims to compare subjects with normal hearing to patients that…
This pilot is meaned to obtain:- experience and understanding in the presence of new embolic load in the brain by means of DW-MRI- Understanding in the number of patients in which probably the post-operative DW-MRI can not be done according to…
To compare neonatal mortality and short-term (advanced MRI indices of structural brain injury at 40 weeks* GA) and long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes (Bayley scales of infant development III [BSID-III] at 24 months) between two groups of very…
The primary objective of this study is to assess whether the CD4+ T cell compartment displays a less pro-inflammatory profile in patients which are supplemented for the SOLAR study with high doses of vitamin D3 when compared to patients which are…
The primary objective is to determine whether the DC/B-cell response to C. jejuni LOS differs in (ex-)patients with C. jejuni-related GBS compared to healthy controls. Secondly, we aim to define the variation in DC/B-cell response to C. jejuni LOS…
To obtain more information on peripheral muscle properties that can account for the reduced exercise capacity in patients with PPS compared to healthy subjects, and to develop an alternative method for determining aerobic exercise capacity in…
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of arm support therapy with conventional therapy, directed at arm function in stroke patients in the sub-acute phase, with regard to both motor aspects and user experiences.
