Main objective: To test the efficacy of thyroxine replacement for subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) in older adults. Primary Objective: To determine multi-modal effects (quality of life; cognitive; musculoskeletal and cardiovascular) of levo-…
To determine whether the attenuated salivary cortisol response in children with asthma can be explained by the maintenance use of inhaled cortiocosteroids, the chronic inflammatory disease, or the attenuated exercise capacity.
First objective: To assess improvement in live birth rate after levothyroxine supplementation. Secondary objective: 1) to test the hypothesis that levothyroxine lowers the risk for miscarriage and preterm birth 2) to test the hypothesis that…
1. To explore the validity and usefulness of Bone Microindentation Technique (BMT) in the assessment of bone quality in patients with osteoporosis and a spectre of bone diseases characterised with (localised) increased bone turnover. 2. To study the…
To determine the sensitivity and specificity of salivary metanephrines and in patients with PCC/sPGL.
1. Does Levothyroxine treatment for subclinical hypothyroidism give multi-modal benefits for the oldest old people with subclinical hypothyroidism?2. Are benefits seen across a wide range of outcomes, including prevention of cardiovascular disease,…
The aim of this study is to investigate if the NETest is useful in the follow up program after curative resection in patients with pNET. Therefore the diagnostic accuracy of the NETest in resected patients with pNET will be analysed. The study is…
To compare Bone Material Strength of the tibia at the side of a fracture or arhtrodesis with that of the opposite tibia in patients who had been immobilized for at least 6 weeks after a recently sustained fracture of the ankle of calcaneus or after…
The aim of this study is to determine novel (bio)markers that show a stronger correlation with signs of over- and under-treatment than the conventional adrenal steroid profile in children with CAH.
Long-term evaluation of thyroid disorders ( TSH elevation and the occurrence of thyroid nodi/carcinoma) in survivors of childhood NBL who received KI, methimazole and thyroxine as thyroid protection during 131I-MIBG exposure. Investigation of the…
Objectives: Part 1) To assess the prevalence of PA in general practice (part 1 of this study);Part 2) To describe differences of cardiorenovascular damage in newly diagnosed hypertensive patients with versus without PA (part 2 of this study);Part 3…
Imaging disease activity in patients with Graves' orbitopathy using [18F]-FDG-PET/CT - a pilot study
To determine whether 18FGD-PET/CT imaging is able to show difference in [18F]-FDG uptake in orbital tissue between patients with active and inactive GO.
The study aims to determine the value of combined 124I PET and FDG PET to avoid futile treatment with 131I. Secundary aims are to validate functional imaging with histopathological correlation, and to optimize and standardize the new 124I technique…
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether thyroid hormone replacement therapy in type 2 diabetic patients suffering from overt hypothyroidism will improve muscular mitochondrial function, lower ectopic fat accumulation in muscle and liver,…
To find out if the mean thyroid volumes of healthy 10-12 and 17-18 years old Dutch children and adolescents are the same or larger than in the late nineteen nineties, and if the dietary iodine intake of these children and adolescents has decreased…
The primary objective of this study is to assess the relation between the short term metabolic changes after start of rhGH therapy and the long term change in height SDS after one and two years of treatment. Secondly, we want to assess the effects…
ObjectiveThe main goal of this investigation is to evaluate the thyroid hormone response in patients with TMNG and control subjects in response to various pharmacological and physiological stimuli, administered according to the dynamic exposure test…
To determine the value of multimodality image registration of cone-beam CT (CBCT) and CT in increasing the success rate of adrenal vein sampling procedure compared to procedures without CBCT guidance.
The primary objective of our study is to investigate the performance of FCH-PET as a second-line imaging modality for localizing hyper-functioning parathyroid gland(s) in patients with biochemically proven PHP for whom surgery is indicated, thereby…
