The main objective of this study is to evaluate the differences in [18F]FEOBV binding between PD patients and healthy control subjects, in order to evaluate the clinical feasibility of [18F]FEOBV as a cholinergic imaging ligand in PD. Secondary…
DEfective HUman SAlivary gland stem cells: the cause of Primary Sjögren*s syndrome?
-DEHUSAPS study-
To assess whether salivary gland stem cell (SGCS) defects are key to salivary gland pathogenesis in pSS.
This study aims to provide a more rational evidence base for appropriate management for metastatic melanoma in the groin LNs, through assessing the effect of the addition of ipsilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy on patient disease-free survival (DFS),…
The aim of this study is to explore the added value of the indol profile in comparison to serotonin in platelets and 5-HIAA in urine for diagnosis and potentially management of neuroendocrine tumors including gastrinomas, pNETs and brochopulmonary…
The main goal of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of using 1) passive treadmill belt speed perturbations to measure spinal reflex activity in the calf muscles; and 2) active real-time visual feedback on dedicated gait parameters to highlight…
To quantify muscle relaxation properties of fingerflexors using transcranial magnetic stimulation in patients with different myopathies to develop a screening diagnostic tool to assess who does (not) suffer from an underlying myopathy.
To explore and optimize the usability of Doppler-OCT scanning of conditions affecting any of the retino-choroidal layers.
To demonstrate the efficacy of AdreView* imaging for appropriately guiding the decision of ICD implantation in a population of New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II and III Heart Failure (HF) patients with 25% * left ventricular ejection…
The overall aim of the study is to improve diagnostic and therapeutic options for people with CF, especially in the context of young children and novel CFTR-targeting drugs. Primary Objective: 1. to demonstrate relations between CFTR genotype,…
The aim of this project is (1) to examine reproducibility of measuring CO and LBF with PC-MRI during supine cycling (phase I) and (2) to measure CO and LBF during supine cycling in patients with CHF and healthy age-matched controls to investigate…
Primary objective: to determine the incidence and location of thrombi in the umbilical venous catheter route during and after umbilical catheterization and in the same route in infants without umbilical catheters. Secondary objectives:A. to…
Primary: To explore the diagnostic value to distinguish PAF and MSA of a variety of tests: corneal confocal microscopy optical coherence tomography (OCT) to measure the retinal nerve fibre layer thickness and total macular volume, corneal…
To systematically unravel the complex victimhood of refugee mothers and their children, and to discern whether children born from sexual violence face even greater challenges. This information will be used to develop resources for professionals…
The primary objective for this study is to evaluate the cerebrovascular reactivity of HCHWA-D patients:1. To compare the (autoregulatory) function of small brain vessels in HCHWA-D patients with matched controls using the cerebrovascular reactivity…
Primary Objective: To assess whether both OCT (optical coherence tomography) and/or HSI (hyperspectral imaging) detect differences in glioma tissue as compared to healthy tissue as examined during brain-surgery.Secondary Objective(s): To assess if…
To assess functional outcome and using gait analysis to quantify kinematic and kinetic abnormalities of servicemen who suffered foot injuries due to combat actions.
- To determine whether there is a mitigated immediate immune response to islet infusion in immunosuppressed recipients- To determine if complement activation during immediate immune response is affected in immunocompromised recipients
The purpose of this study is the improvement of sound material for the Sound-Ear-Check by focusing on the acoustical analysis and the validation of the Sound-Ear-Check, among adult participants and children with normal-hearing abilities and hearing-…
The aim of this pilot study is to establish Th1/Th2/Th17 patterns in healthy controls by analysing cytokine concentrations in nasal fluid (nasal wash and cotton wool method), saliva and blood. This will be done in order to give an estimation about…
We aim to i) describe flow patterns and flow-related dynamics in the ascending aorta of patients with aortic valve stenosis, ii) compare these flow parameters before and after surgical aortic valve replacement and iii) compare flow parameters with…
