To assess if early intervention (12.0-14.0 weeks) (study group) improves the outcome of TRAP sequence as compared to late intervention (16-18 weeks) (control group).
Hypothesis: gaseous signaling molecules influence placental vasomotor activity to compensate for hypoxemia. Metabolites of these vasoactive molecules can be found in the blood and urine and can indicate whether this (compensatory) mechanism is used…
In this prospective study we aim to find out whether an early refeeding strategy in addition to standard care can improve maternal and neonatal outcome and reduce hospital stay.
The objective of the study is to determine the protein profile of cerebrospinal fluid of non-pregnant women using mass-spectrometry.This study is a follow-up project on the previously performed study (LEPRA, CSF and pre-eclampsia, MEC 2007-087). In…
In the present study we will evaluate the standardized care protocol developed in our outpatient clinic, intended to guide counselling for medication use prior to pregnancy. This protocol guides treatment decisions based on disease activity,…
The primary objectives of this study are to assess whether there is transfer of CZP into breastmilk of lactating mothers who are receiving an established dosing regimen of CZP by evaluatingthe concentration of CZP in mature breast milk, and to…
The aim of this study is to study risk factors (in the field of public health and occupation as well as medical technical factors) to enable early detection of pregnant women at increased risk and to integrate these risk factors in a risk prognostic…
The aim of this study is to determine whether children between 5-17 years born to women with an autoimmune disorder and prednisone use during pregnancy have chronically elevated cortisol levels compared to children born to women with an autoimmune…
Does humoral and/or cellular rejection play a role in recurrent miscarriage of unknown etiology?Can biomarkers of humoral and/or cellular rejection be used for the detection of patients who are likely to suffer a miscarriage in a next pregnancy?
In view of this lack of evidence and strong practice variation we propose a randomized clinical trial in overweight and obese subfertile women, in which we compare the costs and effects of a six months structured lifestyle program, aimed at weight…
The primary objective is to assess feasibility of a food supplement (multispecies probiotic) placebo-controlled, randomised controlled, double blind intervention in pregnant women in their late second/third trimester of pregnancy, to reduce symptoms…
The main objective of this study is to analyse the effect of preeclampsia on levels of memory T cell subsets in peripheral blood.
To investigate whether bright light therapy is an effective treatment for depression during pregnancy compared with low-intensity placebo light therapy (proof-of-principle) and to investigate the late effects of bright light therapy versus placebo…
Developing a risk score based on established risk factors and personality traits, to predict possible postnatal anxiety/depression with or without problems in bonding between mother and child at the first consult at the midwives practice or…
The next questions will be addressed in the present study: 1. Do moderately preterm infants differ in development and attention and concentration capacities from a term and very preterm infants during the first years of life? 2. Do attention and…
To determine whether administration of exogenous surfactant using a minimally-invasive technique improves outcome in preterm infants 25-28 weeks gestation treated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP).
Th**is study will compare sequential mifepristone and misoprostol (*M&M*) treatment versus misoprostol treatment alone, which is currently the standard medical treatment in the Netherlands.
The purpose of the sub-study is to do research into markers which will hopefully assist to diagnose the condition Peripartum Cardiomyopathy as early as possible. The blood donated for research will also assist in the assessment of women having a…
We hypothesize that formerly pre-eclamptic women have persistently increased angiotensin II sensitivity, sodium sensitivity, insulin resistance and sympathetic nerve activity together initially leading to susceptibility for early renal disease and…
1. To investigate the influence of different immunosuppressive drugs on the immune response of placental derived mononuclear cells, peripheral blood derived mononuclear cells, and cord blood derived mononuclear cells.2. To investigate the neonatal…
