The purpose of this research line is to assess whether measures acquired with advanced MR neuroimaging can be used as neuropathological markers for the early diagnosis of dementia and differentiation between AD and FTD. For each project, the…
In this research project, we will investigate the feasibility of multi-unit microneurography for the research of human muscle mechanoreceptors. We will therefore answer the following questions:1) How hard is it to find and maintain an effective…
The aim of the study is to observe which of the microcirculatory parameters characterizes the septic patients and to investigate which of these alterations are related to mortality and organfailure. Additionally the changes over time, the…
To determine the influence of the serotonin transporter activity on the plasma free serotonin and dopamine amount and the stored amount (in trombocytes) in three different populations (healthy controls, carcinoid patients and patients on medication…
Primary objective: To investigate whether urine prothrombin fragments are increased in individuals suffering from VTE (i.e. PE or DVT) or a myocardial infarction compared to healthy matched controls.Secondary objective: to investigate whether…
The objective is to carry out a international multi center study to investigate the prevalence of microcirculatory alterations in intensive care patients. Up to the present time, a comprehensive prevalence study like this has not been carried out.
The main objective is to study pregnancy rates after using metabolomic profiling added to the selection of viable embryos by morphology, compared to using only morphology.
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/…
The study objective is to assess whether a learning effect, time of day, and the occasion of napping in between tests could influence SART results.
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the physiology of clients with ID and their caretakers in naturalistic situations in relationship to the occurrence of challenging behavior. The level of arousal in daily situations will be…

Primary objectives: • Establish that capillary plasma samples are unsuitable to evaluate the potassium status in patients.• Verify that pseudohyperkalemia in capillary samples is not only caused by haemolysis but also due to other potassium sources…
The aims are: 1. Test whether a POCT INR can be used in a clinical setting compared to five regular central assays (including the in-house method) and with the tilt tube / WHO standard as reference INR. 2. To establish possible causes for…
To study the test-retest reliability effects on three fMRI tasks administered in the ePOD project in children (aged 10-14) and adults (aged 23-30).
This study aims to increase the knowledge on perioperative cardiovascular function and volume management in liver transplantation in order to provide a more scientifically based approach to cardiovascular and fluid management. This may be beneficial…
The purpose of this study is to characterize in hospitalized children across Europe:• the prevalence of malnutrition on admission and at discharge,• the effects of malnutrition on outcomes, such as length of hospital stay and occurrence of…
Aim of this prospective study is to determine (temporal changes in) the intestinal microbiota in faecal specimens and microbiota adhering to the intestinal mucosa using bacterial DNA-based profiling methods.
The purpose of this study is to identify and quantify the influence of medium opacity on RNFL and inner retinal layer thickness measurements using SD-OCT, as well as the effect of cataract on the filter measurements. Also to evaluate the…
To study the quantitative and qualitative relationship between a heat stimulus and the vasomotor response in healthy subjects and to determine the feasibility of this measurement setup for patients.
We have set prior to the design and implementation of this research a primary and a secondary goal.Primary goal:Testing the validity of the computer model of the coagulation cascade and the related PK / PD model of VKA and heparin for use in…
