To compare the performance and diagnostic accuracy of two EUS-guided tissue acquisition devices; a 25G Echotip Ultra Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA) device and a new, more flexible, 20G Echotip ProCore Fine Needle Biopsy (FNB) device.
The primary aim of the current proposal is to get a better understanding of how CeD risk genes contribute to disease aetiology. To achieve this, we will apply a holistic approach in which we will study the behaviour of immune cells and the…
The BAV study is a clinical and genetic study to unravel biomarker and imaging predictors of adverse outcome and to explore the pathogenetic basis of bicuspid aortic valves and it*s associated pathologies. We will also deliver insights in the…
In this research the effectiveness of CRAFT Group Traning and CRAFT Bibliotherapy will be examined and outcomes will be compared with no intervention at all.
Aim of this study is to obtain synovial tissue and synovial fluid, from 80 patients with non-septic, inflammatory knee arthritis undergoing routine arthroscopy of the knee and analyze inflammatory factors influencing osteoclast and osteoblast…
To investigate whether the amount of TiMas containing brain specific proteins, correlates with functional outcome and infarct size in patients with acute ischemic stroke. And, to study the kinetics of the tissue macrophages and to compare these data…
The primary objective of this study is to assess the CV risk profile of Hindustanis without known diabetes mellitus (DM), hypertension, dyslipidemia or CV disease and evaluate the 10-year CV risk according to the Framingham risk score. Secondary…
Employing PPCM patient-derived iPSCs, we aim to test our hypothesis that cardiomyocytes from PPCM patients exhibit (epi)genetically determined differences in protein expression profiles and functional behavior in comparison to those from healthy…
(i) to determine specificity of Q-detect* for registration purposes. (ii) to design a decision tree for follow-up of patients with a positive Q-detect* and
The goal of this registry study is to provide insight in the safety and efficacy of treatment with MOCA for primary insufficiency of the GSV with a diameter >/=12mm, insufficient antero-lateral branches (<12 mm) and insifficincy of the…
To establish benchmark values in healthy control fetuses, to compare these with our cohort of fetuses with severe CHD.
At CHDR, experience has been gained with the assessment of the in vitro inhibition by MAP kinases of the LPS-induced TNFα release in healthy male volunteers. However, relatively little is known on the inhibition by MAP-kinases in other populations.…
We will perform a study to describe the echogenicity of the substantia nigra, red nucleus and brainstem raphe in PD patients with and without RLS, RLS patients without PD and healthy controls. The echogenicity will be correlated with the the serum…
1) Compare a group of bilateral users to a unilateral control group (between-subject design)2) Compare unilateral use to bilateral use after sequential implantation (within-subject design)3) Compare simultaneous bilateral implantation to sequential…
The aim of the Anti-Interleukin-1 in Diabetes Action trial (AIDA) study is to test the feasibility, safety/tolerability and potential efficacy of anti-IL-1 therapy in maintaining or enhancing beta-cell function in people with new-onset Type 1…
Do pre-processed bone chips have lower contamination rates compared to femoral heads, morselised at the operating theatre measured at different moments during hip revision arthroplasty?
This project aims at evaluating the reliability, validity, and the practical relevance of the SDQ Self Report compared to KIVPA (a Dutch questionnaire to detect psychosocial problems in adolescents). The study findings may support the Dutch policy…
Investigate the CGMS results in comparison with an OGTT and one-day self monitoring of blood glucose. Thereby compare the glucose patterns of patients with an impaired glucose tolerance to patient with a normal glucose tolerance and CFRD.
This project aims at evaluating the reliability, validity, and the added value of the SDQ (Parent Format ) compared to LSPPK (a Dutch questionnaire to detect psychosocial problems in toddlers and children). The study findings may support the Dutch…
Aim of the project is to determine whether it is possible to implement a CAT for the identification of children with psychosocial problems in Dutch JGZ. Additionally the study will evaluate the CAT as it is being used in practice. The trial…
