Primary objective of this study is to assess the feasibility of using a monitoring and a titration algorithm to prevent inactivity and excessive activity of the diaphragm. This will be determined by comparing the fraction of breaths where diaphragm…
Looking into the effects of raw vs boiled eggs vs isocaloric low-protein meal on muscle growth.
What is the correlation between intramuscular and surface EMG of the mm. multifidi in different clinical tests in healthy subjects and non-specific lower backpain patients?
To describe the EMG activity of the pelvic floor muscles (PFM) with a bi-polar EMG probe and the MAPLe and effect on the registered EMG activity with the probes in relation to the contractions of the muscles surrounding the pelvic floor. To describe…
In this phase I/II clinical study will assess the safety, effectiveness and homing of asCTMP, namely autologous mesoangioblasts, that will be injected 3x intra-arterially in right lower leg via catheter in 5 indivuals that carry the m.3243A>G…
Objective: To evaluate the adherence of patient*s use of OS.
Primary Objective: To investigate whether differences exist in muscle function, muscle energy metabolism and cardiorespiratory fitness in CML patients with muscle complaints, compared to CML patients without muscle complaints, and controls (non-CML…
The primary objective is to determine the effect of dietary ribose supplementation on muscle function in patients with isolated LGMD as caused by a dystroglycanopathy. The secondary aim is to determine if ribose is well tolerated in this patient…
The primary objective is to investigate the measurement properties of isometric, isotonic and isokinetic protocol to assess quadriceps muscle endurance in patients with COPD. Our secondary objective is to determine the relationship between…
To investigate if difference in fiber type and/or oxygen supply are the underlying cause for the difference in PCr recovery along the length of the tibialis anterior muscle.
In order to develop treatment strategies guided by the key mechanisms that play a role in dysphagia in OPMD and IBM, the exact pattern of weakness should be identified. The current protocol allows us to test the feasibility of two non-invasive…
To study the effectiveness of physiotherapy plus an eHealth psychological intervention targeted at psychosocial risk factors compared to usual physiotherapy care on disability, for patients at risk of developing persistent low back pain and neck…
This study aims to investigate the validity and reliability of US to measure muscle size and muscle quality in healthy adults compared to MRI/MRS.
The objective of this study is to investigate whether BTA injection in the pelvic floor muscle is an effective treatment for patients with chronic pelvic pain and pelvic floor hypertonicity.
The present study aims to characterize the relation between skeletal muscle mitochondrial metabolism and muscle health in physically compromised humans.
The primary objective is to investigate the coordination (functional and timing) between the different respiratory muscles in ICU patients under mechanical ventilation during assisted breathing and during a spontaneous breathing trial. To this end,…
The main objective of this study is to research whether implementation of a focused personalized problem-oriented coaching intervention (coach2move strategy) is more effective to improve physical activity, mobility and health status in community-…
Primary Objective: To evaluate the effect of PFR compared to standard treatment on FI in patients after LAR, by measuring the Wexner-score and the Fecal Incontinence Quality of Life Score (FIQL-score).Secondary objective:To analyse the cost…
In this study we will assess whether the application of daily blood flow restriction during 2 weeks of bed rest will attenuate losses in skeletal muscle mass and strength. With measurements, before, during and after the bed rest period, we can…
The overarching aim of this project is to study the relation between sensitisation and functioning in patients with CLBP. The project consists of 3 studies, each with a different main objective. 1. To analyse the association between instruments…
