To compare acylated and unacylated ghrelin concentrations in pregnant women with GD and without GD.
To validate spectral analysis of the fHRV as a new method for fetal monitoring. To determine the exact influence on fHRV of several commonly used medicines in obstetric care; namely tocolytic drugs, corticosteroids, antihypertensive agents,…
1a. Determine whether the effect of low-molecular-weight heparin can be explained by aspirin resistance. 1b. Assess the consistency of aspirin resistance during and after pregnancy measured with several complementary devices. 2. Determine…
a. To investigate the phenotype and function of immunological cells present in endometrial and peripheral blood of women with a history of recurrent miscarriages and women without any known pregnancy complications.b. To investigate the association…
In the present proposal, we aim to assess the cost-effectiveness of the use of CGMS in diabetic pregnancies.
The main goal of this study is to establish the reliability (internal consistency and interrater reliability) and validity (discriminant, contruct and predictive validity) of the INCAS. Differences between the SMI and healthy group will be studied (…
The prime objective of the IMPROvED project is to develop a clinically robust predictive blood test for pre-eclampsia, using innovative technologies and utilising novel metabolite and protein biomarkers. This blood test is targeted to all first time…
Applicability of fetal brain imaging techniques for clinical purposes.
What is the most reliable way, defined as the lowest percentage rate of urines which are contaminated, to collect urine in pregnant women to asses bacteriuria? Comparison of three different methods of collection: midstream morning urine, midstream…
To investigate whether SAF is elevated in GDM versus non-diabetic pregnancy To investigate whther SAF levels change during the course of normal and GDM pregnancy To investigate if SAF is related to other parameters of hyperglycemia (HbA1c, self…
The primary objective of this pilot study is to assess the prevalence of visual field defects in formerly eclamptic women. The secondary objective is to compare the vision-related quality of life between formerly eclamptic and normotensive parous…
This study will assess the capacity of quantitave fetal fibronectin testing as compared to or in addition of cervical length measurements and vaginal digital exams to predict preterm delivey in women with symptoms of preterm labour.
To evaluate whether cognitive function of formerly preeclamptics is diminished and correlated with dynamic cerebrovascular control properties using non-invasive measuring techniques (dynamic cerebral autoregulation, neurovascular coupling). Question…
To determine whether fFN kan detect preterm delivery in monochorionic twins treated for TTTS.
Validation of Microlife 3BTO-A and OMRON for blood pressure measurement in women with moderate to sever preeclampsia.
To assess if the studied TCD variables of cerebral autoregulation and hemodynamics are abnormal during preeclampsia. And if so, to determine if these changes are large enough to have potential value to determine a threatening cerebral dysfunction in…
1- To determine the physiological concentrations of ADAM12 and PP13, longitudinal, in the early first trimester in normal pregnancies. 2- To analyse the stability of these proteins, the effect of transport and higher temperatures.3- To compare the…
Determination of psychosocial effects after severe, early onset preeclampsia for improvement of care of these patients in the future.
The primary objective is to compare metformin versus no intervention for incidence of GDM in women with a high risk for GDM. The main secondary objective is pregnancy outcome with Metformin, neonatal outcomes and neonatal complications.
The hypothesis is that SMBG underestimates the number of hyperglycaemic episodes in women with gestational diabetes mellitus. The aim of this study is to evaluate if CGMS detects hyperglycaemia when the standard SMBG day curve is normal.
