De objective of this study is to analyse the effect of exercise on the levels of Ara h6 in the blood after peanut consumption. Next to this we would like to know whether these levels found are in associated with the measure of intestinal…
Primary Objective: to show the differences in distribution of microbial DNA proximal versus distal in the colon as well as luminal composition versus mucosa adherent. Secondary Objective: to test whether bowel lavage has influence on the microbial…
Identification of baseline functional capacity of patients undergoing surgery for colorectal cancer.
To investigate patients' preoperative physical fitness, deconditioning due to hospitalisation with patients undergoing colorectal surgery for colorectal cancer. This study will serve as a control group for the prehabilitation study which will…
(1) To compare adenoma miss rates (AMR) between Endocuff Vision-assisted colonoscopy (EAC) and conventionalcolonoscopy (CC)(2) To compare adenoma detection rates (ADR) between EAC and CC(3) To assess whether a proposed increased ADR and reduced AMR…
main objective: Investigate the prevalence of liver fibrosis according to TE values in children enrolled in a HPN-program. Secondary objectives: Investigate the correlation between TE values and ELF test score and APRI in children enrolled in a HPN-…
Determine the technical success, diagnostic accuracy, safety and quality of procedure (evaluated by the endoscopist) of the E.G.Scan* compared to conventional upper endoscopy in patients referred for diagnostic upper endoscopy.
To compare the additional diagnostic yield obtained by using the PeerScope System* extended view vs. the diagnostic yield obtained by the Standard view colonoscopy.In addition, time measurements including time to cecum, time for withdrawal and…
In this study, we will test which of two feeding strategies for adults during chemotherapy-induced mucositis is optimal with regards to maintaining an optimal body weight, nutritional status, gut mucosal barrier and treatment outcome (including…
Primary Objective is to compare the effect of different exercise protocols on intestinal permeability and on plasma levels of glutamine and glutamine-derived amino acids, in healthy young men. A Secondary Objective is to assess the effect of…
Evaluation of I-FABP as diagnostic tool in mesenteric ischemia.
The main goal of this study is to test feasibility of the present commmercially available laparoscopic fluorescence imaging system during laparoscopic colorectal surgery for intraoperative identification of the ureter.
Determine the diagnostic accuracy of the E.G.Scan 2.0* compared to conventional upper endoscopy in patients referred for diagnostic upper endoscopy to evaluate esophageal disorders.
The aim of this study is to determine the population and functionality dynamics of the microbiota in ileostomy subjects.
Primary objective: to investigate the possible role of FABP/Claudin levels as a diagnostic marker for significant intra-abdominal injury (necessitating therapeutical intervention).Secondary objective: to establish the use of plasma levels of I-FABP/…
What is the prevalence of depression and anxiety in children with asthma. Is this more frequent in asthma than in other chronic conditions like diabetes and Coelikie? And how compares this to healthy children in the same phase of life?
To compare accuracy, patient experience and costs of lower gastrointestinal endoscopy (sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy) between nurse and physician endoscopists.
The purpose of the study is to define the accuracy of functional cine MRI detecting adhesions to the abdominal wall expressed in sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive value. In addition MRI findings of organ to organ…
To validate previously established norms for intestinal length in children and to validate height as the best predictor of small intestinal and colon length.
The objective of this study is to compare TNE with conventional upper GI endoscopy in detecting esophageal mucosal abnormalities, effectiviness of barrier for microorganisme and patients experience with both techniques.
Primary objectives1. What is the pulmonary function and exercise tolerance in children born with esophageal atresia at the age of 8-18 years (group I), determined by spirometry, measurement of lung volumes and a maximal exercise test. 2. What is the…
