Previous studies have shown that the origin of trained innate immunity lies in the bone marrow and is determined by epigenetic and metabolic reprogramming in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. In this study, we investigate whether long-term…
The objective of this study is to further unravel the complexity of human milk and its variations over lactation stages and between individuals.
Primary objectives: - To examine how environmental exposures influence the prevalence, 5-year incidence and progression of cardiometabolic and chronic respiratory disease in the general population. - To determine the mediation effect of lifestyle…
To investigate whether high perceived stress is associated with inflammatory reprogramming of innate immune cells and their bone marrow progenitors, and with increased arterial wall inflammation, in subjects with an increased CVD risk.
In this study, we therefore aim to investigate how trained immunity is systemically regulated in kidney transplant patients and how the degree of trained immunity affects graft survival in patients. A better understanding of these processes…
Main objective: 1. Determine the feasibility, in terms of system fidelity and acceptability, of remote, image-based monitoring in cardiac surgery patients on a general ward. Secondary objectives: 1. The validity of remote, image-based heart- and…
To evaluate whether we can determine the health status of the joint by measuring biomarker levels using a newly developed assay by the University of Twente based on the multiplex measurement of a panel of relevant biomarkers using Surface Plasmon…
The aim of this study is to determine if mindfulness-based early intervention reduces internalizing symptoms in help-seeking youth and prevents their development into (serious) psychiatric illnesses. In addition we will examine putative changes in…
To investigate the role of the immune system in the etiology and prognosis in an acute ischemic stroke (or TIA) in young stroke patients.
The primary objective of this study is to establish molecular profiles in lower rectal biopsies as close to the internal fistula orifice tissue and fistula scrapings based on single cell RNA sequencing, cellular protein expression by CyTOF and…
The primary objective of this study is to build a predictive model in which we can identify which (pheno) type of ALS patients has the most benefit from NIV in improving or maintaining quality of life.
The main study objectives include to:a. Use clinical and biological data to estimate the mean rates of change and the variability around the mean of clinical, digital, imaging, biological and genetic outcomes in study participants…
The aim of the THRIVE study is to examine two objectives: 1. What are the mechanisms through which friendships aid resilience?a. Does friendship support relate to reduced neural stress responses in young adults with CA?b. Does friendship…
This study will consist of three parts with three different main objectives:- Part 1 - Pilot study; Primary objective: To assess and compare thermal comfort upon wearing a cooling vest, based on exposed cooling packs versus…
2 OBJECTIVES2.1 Primary Objective: To address the existing knowledge gaps and advance our understanding of cognitive variability, the CODEC study aims to integrate experience sampling methods, longitudinal designs, deep phenotyping cohorts, and…
To answer the following questions: 1. Who are the patients that need to be revaccinated?2. How many vaccinations are needed to restore SARS-CoV-2 immunity?3. Can the number of vaccinations needed to restore SARS-CoV-2 immunity be predicted?To…
Overall objective:To improve the existing drug prescribing and treatment monitoring process.Objective appendix 1: To prospectively evaluate the predictive performance of the MIPD strategy for tacrolimus and mycophenolic acid in paediatric patients…
To investigate the physiological and structural adaptations of peripheral muscle function at a cellular level in response to EBV treatment.
Primary objectives: 1.1) To investigate to what extent the different functions of the cerebral microvasculature are impaired in type 1 diabetes; and 1.2) To investigate to what extent the different functions of the cerebral microvasculature are…
