Primary objective of the study: 1. To report on the age-dependency of the effect(s) of MPH or SSRI treatment on the outgrowth of the DA and 5-HT systems, respectively, using state-of-the-art Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) techniques
The present PhD thesis focuses on the investigation of ADAS and the older driver. Even though, recent research investigated the effects of ADAS on driving performance, little is known about the long-term effects of the systems on performance.…
The primary objective of the trial is to determine if ischemic stroke subjects with a baseline NIH Stroke Scale Score (NIHSSS] >= 10 (8-9 with positive CTA) treated with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA; [Alteplase recombinant…
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…
In the proposed project we aim to predict falls in daily life and to identify both aging- and disease-related impairments that underlie impaired postural control and an increased risk of falling in daily life.
To develop pulse transit time into a diagnostic device which can be used to assess an altered cold/heat mediated vasomotor response (CHMV) (central component) and the flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) (peripheral component) in CRPS patients.
The goal of this study is to examine the effect of cooling on neuropathy in the hands of patients who are treated with Paclitaxel, Docetaxel en Oxaliplatin. Patients who will be included in the study are those who start with chemotherapy. The…
Primary objective: The ultimate goal is to achieve a more sensitive method for detecting malformations of cortical development. This encompasses two steps: the development of the method and the assessment of the sensitivity and specificity of the…
The objective of the study is to investigate the effects of bright light combined with physical activity during the morning on subjective and objective outcomes related to sleep-wake cycle and the rest-activity rhythm in persons with MCI, aged 65…
We want to gain more fundament insight in disturbed sensorimotor integration in PD, particularly with regard to the impact of visual stimuli on the cerebral organization underlying gait control. Such knowledge provides arguments for targeted patient…
The primary objective of this study is to detect statistically significant differences between the most severely affected PD subtype and controls on 3T imaging parameters.
In this study we want to investigate if relaxation time (RT) measured by handgrip myometry and muscle- elastography is a reliable outcome measurement for the quantification of myotonia in NDM patients. Mean RT values en standard deviations of NDM…
In this research, a small group of children known to suffer from complex febrile seizures (FS) will be studied. An increase in expression of FS1 will be investigated in blood in comparison with an control group. This will be done by isolating FS1…
Discrimination of probable AD patients from healthy volunteers by ZK 6032924 PET imaging as evaluated by visual analysis of the brain distribution patterns and by SUV values in probable AD patients as compared to healthy volunteers for brain imaging…
Primary objective of the study:To find out which areas in the brain play a part in the maintenance of tinnitus, and what the roles of those areas are. This will be done using the AEP response in EEG recordings.Secundary objectives of the study:1. To…
Objectivesi)) To study whether reproductive hormones play a role in migraine susceptibility in malemigraine patients; ii) to study functionality of the trigeminal system prospectively duringinterictal and premonitory phases of the migraine attack (…
The purpose of this research project is to assess whether affected PKD patients have brain abnormalities compared to healthy normal controls. Hypothesis: Paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia affected individuals exhibit abnormal spontaneous activity of…
The primary objective is to evaluate the short- and long-term effectiveness of a hybrid cycle training program on physical capacity, active lifestyle, participation, and quality of life among a group of inactive individuals with a chronic SCI.…
Does mitochondrial dysfunction play an important role in the pathofysiology of patients with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome Type I ?
To examine neurocognition in 100 HIV1 seropositive patients on chronic effective cART using three different tests: the Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) , the International Aids Dementia scale (ADS) and extensive neuropsychological testing of…
