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…
Does humoral and/or cellular rejection play a role in recurrent miscarriage of unknown etiology?Can biomarkers of humoral and/or cellular rejection be used for the detection of patients who are likely to suffer a miscarriage in a next pregnancy?
The next questions will be addressed in the present study: 1. Do moderately preterm infants differ in development and attention and concentration capacities from a term and very preterm infants during the first years of life? 2. Do attention and…
1. To investigate the influence of different immunosuppressive drugs on the immune response of placental derived mononuclear cells, peripheral blood derived mononuclear cells, and cord blood derived mononuclear cells.2. To investigate the neonatal…
Main objective of this pilot study is to investigate the placental bed histological phenotype and evaluate a scoring system for lesion characteristics of the placental bed spiral artery in pre-eclampsia and uncomplicated pregnancy. The secondary…
To design a multivariate prediction model of pregnancy outcome in women with PCOS with the intention to define intervention strategies for the future.
Does HLA sharing in couples with recurrent miscarriage play a role in recurrent miscarriage of unknown etiology?
The primary objective is to determine if there is an association between the presence of vertebral and/or rib anomalies and congenital malformations, aneuploidy or adverse fetal outcome, in order to assess whether detailed evaluation of the…
The principal aim of this study is to elucidate the role of the glycocalyx in the pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia by assessing: - Whether the glycocalyx is affected in pre-eclampsia and is related to its severity.- Whether glycocalyx perturbation is…
To test The Selection Failure hypothesis by assessing A) the degree of embryo invasiveness and decidual acceptance (the quality of decidualization, endometrium-embryo communication and endometrial stromal cell (ESC) migration) and B) the angiogeneic…
This study aims to test whether non-invasive measures of SNS activity can predict preeclampsia and whether magnesium sulphate in preeclamptic patients reduces the hypersympathetic state. We will quantify SNS activity using the pre-ejection period (…
Our unique project is based on an ongoing European prenatal stress research focusing on the effect of prenatal stress on early sensory-cognitive development. We capitalize on the methodologically sound maternal and infant physiological measures…
Main objective of this pilot study is to compare vascular lesions of the placental bed spiral artery characteristics in pre-eclampsia to spiral artery samples after an uncomplicated pregnancy. Aim of the pilot study will also be to determine the…
The present study has 2 primary objectives: 1: The first aim of the present study is to explore early detection possibilities using plasma hemopexin activity and plasma ATP levels in cohorts of pregnant women in a time course manner (experiment 1).…
Primary Objective: The main objective of this study is to analyse the effects of pregnancy on levels and percentages of CD8 cell subsets in peripheral blood both during and after pregnancy.
We aim to determine an association between the presence of complement binding anti-paternal HLA-C antibodies and preeclampsia.
To evaluate the incidence, risk factors and perinatal morbidity and mortality due to CA after TTTS treated with fetoscopic laser surgery.
Is recurrent miscarriage an independent risk factor for an increased cardiovascular risk?
Primary Objective: To determine the accumulation of AGEs in the skin and serum of pregnant women with DM1, DM2 or GDM, in comparison to healthy pregnant women and non-pregnant women with DM1 or DM2 and to determine the accumulation of AGEs in the…
To collect maternal blood during the 2nd half of pregnany, in combination with clinical data and data on pregnancy outcome.
