To establish normal ranges for the lateral ventricles in neonates with a gestational age ranging from 25 to 42 weeks.
We intend to study the role of fronto-striatal circuitry and cognitive control in the inflexible behaviour that is a defining feature of autism.
The current project aims first to examine whether IPT produces outcomes that are superior to the comprehensive treatments already available ('care as usual'). Primary outcomes include parenting behavior and the quality of the parent-child…
Primary objective:The primary objective of this study is to compare the short-term and long-term efficacy of neurolysis and a conservative strategy for relieving symptoms in mild cases of UNE. Secondary objectives:- VAS score for paresthesias- VAS…
In previous studies we have identified specific receptor and surface protein expression profiles on neutrophils. Some of these profiles point at partially refractory neutrophils. In the current NERTHUS study we have seen that circulating neutrophils…
In this trial, current usual care concerning cardiovascular education is described. Second aim is to study what is understood of this education by the patient. Last aim is to study what effect training of GP's on this subject will have on the…
The aim of this study is to develop a valid and reliable instrument to estimate the extent to which gagging problems will interfere with adequate dental treatment and to evaluate possible progress after psychological treatment of gagging problems.
The primary objective is identification of a set of genes as candidate monocyte markers for acute coronary complications and subsequent identification of a prognosis classifier to discriminate vulnerable, stable, and control subjects, based on the…
