The primary goal is to investigate the responsiveness of the coordination measurement in patients with low back pain.
1. What is the effectiveness of MIP (MI-based pre-treatment) compared to UC (usual care) on the level of participation and treatment drop-out in patients with chronic non-specific musculoskeletal pain following pain rehabilitation?2. What is the…
The primary goal is to investigate the ability of an integrated closed-loop identification system to differentiate between chronic a-specific LBP patients and healthy controls in terms of their neuromuscular trunk control. Also the influence of pain…
The primary aim of the present study is to investigate whether the Mindset Reconditioning program can safely be applied in patients with CRPS. A secondary aim is to assess the efficacy of Mindset Reconditioning before the preparation of a randomized…
To perform 31P-MRS during and after exercise using a specifically designed probe to determine variations in energy metabolism along the TA muscle in healthy humans subjects.
Measuring the brain activity in patients with chronic WAD and compare the results with those obtained in healthy volunteers. The goal of this research is to better understand the cause of chronic WAD and how to better treat the WAD-patients.
The primary objective of this current project is to study the (cost-) effectiveness of Motivational interviewing in non-specific musculoskeletal chronic pain patients who are indicated for pain rehabilitation treatment. It is hypothesized that an MI…
To determine the test-retest reliability and agreement of the neck-FCE in patients with chronic non-specific neck pain.
The aims of the current study are:1. Demonstrate that during noninvasive ventilation a patient with acute respiratory failure is in better synchrony with the ventilator during NAVA compared to PSV mode.2. Demonstrate that the Servo-i ventilator is…
1. Is there a difference between the level of activities and participation among adolescents with chronic musculoskeletal pain as compared with the activity and participation level of adolescents not suffering from chronic pain?2. What is the impact…
The aim of this study is to investigate psychometric properties (the test-retest reliability, construct validity) of the PHODA-youth in adolescents with chronic musculoskeletal pain.
The primary objective of this study is to examine whether distraction interferes with CPM modulation differently in patients with fibromyalgia compared to healthy controls. Secondary objectives include assessing whether patients have a general…
The objective of the current study is two-fold. First, to identify the duration and severity of back pain in the elderly. Second, to identify possible predictive prognostic factors for developing chronic back pain.
To identify some of the mechanisms in patients in remission of Cushing*s syndrome that contribute to the persistence of visceral obesity, systemic inflammation, insulin resistance, sarcopenia, a low muscle oxidative capacity and increased risk of…
To assess the difference in acromiohumeral (AH) distance reduction during active isometric abduction tasks (with respect to rest radiographs) between the asymptomatic and symptomatic shoulder in patients with a unilaterally diagnosed RC tear.…
Investigate how physical fitness and activity evolve over time in paediatric burn patients, also in relation to function.
The main aim of this study is to investigate directed forgetting of emotional versus neutral words in patients with fibromyalgia compared to healthy controls. Secondary objectives are to examine potential associations between directed forgetting and…
Primary Objective:Is a prevention program, based on principles of health behavior change, education about playing-related musculoskeletal disorders and postural training, more effective in preventing and/ or reducing disabilities from…
This study will investigate the relationship between autonomic nervous system function and pain in fibromyalgia, with a specific emphasis on awareness of bodily sensations, also refered to as interoceptive awareness, as a potential modulator of pain…
We aim to define the role of systemic, low grade, chronic inflammation in the development of sarcopenia and therefore study patients with rheumatoid arthritis and patients with osteoarthritis as controls, on cellular and functional level. Until now…
