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…
To determine FDG uptake following uncomplicated EVAR using the Nellix endoprosthesis. Does uncomplicated EVAR using the Nellix endoprosthesis result in increased FDG uptake and false positive PET imaging? .
To gain a better insight into the genetic factors that play a role in the etiology of the thoracic aortic aneurysm with the following specific aims:1. Study of specific geneitc factos that play a role in the pathogenesis of both syndromic and non-…
Test the optimized MRI sequences/technology against commercially-available, clinical MRIsequences in terms of image quality, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR), speed, and accuracy/reproducibility of extracted quantitative…
Main objective: * To evaluate the effect and variation of 3 and 12 months treatment with Aliskeren-based versus amlodipine-based antihypertensive treatment on aneurismal FDG- uptakeExploratory objectives: * To explore the effect of 3 and 12 months…
The principal goal of this study is to identify whether and how innate immune host factors predispose to the development of chronic Q-fever.
The main goal of the current study is to gain insight in the development and rupture rate of aneurysms and to detect potential markers that predict the risk of aneurysm rupture.
Primary Objective: To determine the differences in function and morphology of the distinct abdominal adipose tissue depots (e.g. SAT, PVAT, OAT and MAT; see figure 1) in patients undergoing elective open abdominal aortic surgery.Secondary…
1a) To determine the prevalence of digital pathology, possibly as a result of digital emboli, in the dominant hand in symptomatic and asymptomatic elite Dutch male volleyball players. 1b) To determine the association between the presence of digital…
Aim of the studyIn this prospective, observational trial, we aim to investigate the accuracy, precision and concordance of VFR in patients after open abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair during their stay in the ICU. CO measurements obtained with…
1a) To determine the prevalence of anomalies of the PCHA in the dominant shoulder in symptomatic and asymptomatic elite male volleyball players. 1b) To determine the association between anomalies of the PCHA in the dominant shoulder with the…
1a) To determine the prevalence of anomalies of the PCHA in the dominant shoulder in symptomatic and asymptomatic elite male and female beach volleyball players. 1b) To determine the association between anomalies of the PCHA in the dominant shoulder…
The research focuses on the active screening of high prevalence patients and the diagnosis of AAA. This study aims to establish an effective screening protocol and determining a higher prevalence in patients with PAD and patients with carotid…
Primary objective:- Determining the extent to which perfusion territories of the larger intracranial arteries are affected by endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysmsSecondary objectives:- Defining the relationship between collateral…
To determine whether it is possible to identify adventitial fattening of the aortic wall in patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm using MRI techniques and use this adventitial fattening as a new biomarker for AAA patients.
The primary objective of the present study is to characterize the glucose metabolism in patients with SAH in the acute- and, sub acute phase and during follow-up. The secondary objectives are to relate glucose metabolism to clinical condition on…
To identify possible in vivo biochemical and biological markers related to aneurysm wall strength.
To identify an AAA associated genes by a functional candidate gene approach.The identification of an AAA associated gene will have several impacts on this high prevalent disease:1. It will improve our understanding of the molecular pathways involved…
The aim of the study described in this protocol is the identification of genes involved in aortic aneurysm development. This will be achieved by characterization of large AA families, including pedigree investigations, diagnostic measurements (…
