Serum hepcidin levels are elevated in hemodialysis patients and may contribute to functional iron impairment and thus to ESA-resistance. Kinetics of hepcidin in hemodialysis patients has not been studied in detail. This study is designed to provide…
To compare which treatment (indwelling catheter versus intermittend catheterisation) has the best clinical effect in women with symptomatic PUR.
The aim of the study is to observe whether microcirculatory perfusion follows the decrease in preload caused by hemodialysis in a population with an intact and a disturbed microcirculatory autoregulation.
Primary Objective: To answer the following question: Does the extended approach (defined as uroflowmetry and bladder scan after the first consultation, followed by a check-up in month 3 of the male patient over 50 years of age first presenting with…
The aim of the present study is to investigate the possibility of the use of non-invasive methods for the evaluation of bladder outlet obstruction after ProACT* device implantation by comparing non-invasive measurements with invasive measurements.…
Objective:Primary aim of the study is estimating the diagnostic accuracy of translabial 3D ultrasonography of thepelvic floor as compared to MR imaging, the reference standard, for diagnosing levator defects inwomen with POP. Our secondary aim is…
Primary: To investigate if there is a correlation between findings of transabdominal ultrasound measurement of the rectum and rectal digital examination. Secondary: To investigate if there is a correlation between an enlarged rectum (diameter &…
1. Monitoring of cellular (T-cel) specifc immune response in bladder and bloodsamples after intravesical BCG- therapy. 2. Monitoring and comparing T-cell responses after BCG therapy in patients with clinical BCG-related complications to the T-…
Diagnosis of patients with primary hyperoxaluria in a cohort of patients with recurrent urolithiasis.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of 89Zr-bevacizumab PET imaging as a biomarker before and during treatment with everolimus in patients with metastatic RCC. 89Zr-bevacizumab PET imaging will be regarded a promising…
The statistical analysis will evaluate the correlation of Baseline NGAL and BNP levels -alone and together - with the clinical outcomes of hart-failure (HF-related adverse clinical outcomesthrough Day 30 and Day 90. The cut-off and estimated…
The study is devided in two distinct groups a male and female group: The male group consist of patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). The female group consist of patients with the overactive bladder syndrome OAB.The primary objective of…
Primary objective:-To diagnose acute pyelonefritis with MRI in comparison with the reference standard: DMSA scanning.Secondary objectives:- To determine whether MR-diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) has additional value in the imaging of…
Our primary objective is to determine the incidence of EPS after kidney transplantation in patients previously treated by PD. We hypothesize that there is an increasing incidence of symptomatic and asymptomatic EPS after kidney transplantation.
Primary Objective: Mapping the consequences of a congenital monokidney on kidney function for children with MCKD.Secondary Objective(s): - Giving recommendations about follow-up for children treated with nephrectomy for MCKD.- Defining better blood…

Assessment of microvascular alterations using orthogonal spectral polarization and correlate this with markers for endothelial cell dysfunction, fibrosis and histology in patients with renal function impairment who will undergo renal biopsy and…
To investigate site and distribution of sentinel nodes in clinically non metastatic kidney cancer.
Assessment of the effect of kidney-pancreas transplantation in diabetic nephropathy patients on microvascular alterations using orthogonal spectral polarization and correlate this effect with markers for endothelial cell dysfunction and fibrosis
The primary question is whether certain tubular biomarkers are associated with albuminuria. It is thougt that to much albumin in the pre-urine is toxic to the proximal tubulus. By measuring different kind of damage markers of different locations of…
