The aim of this project is to evaluate the clinical value of biomarkers in adult patients with pulmonary hypertension, in particular:1) To quantify biomarkers of neurohormonal activity as NTproBNP, endotheline-1 and of immunological activity as CRP…
This study is designed to gather prospective data on a) the clinical effectiveness, b) the tissue structure changes, and c) the short term costs of ankle joint distraction (AJD) in 10 patients with HAA during 10 years follow-up.
Development of new imaging techniques for MR-guided motion management in the presence of respiratory motion
Determination of the (cost)effectiveness of the replacement of the expensive, risky and time-consuming food challenge test bythe Basophil Activation Test (BAT) for the diagnosis of an IgE-mediated cow*s milk allergy in children.
Comparison of hearing preservation and outcome of two fundamentally different cochlear implants designs (LW or PM) and the two most used surgical approaches (RW or CO). Secondly, asses the structure preservation (i.e., scalar position) of each…
Objective: This protocol describes a framework that will be used to create different studies. The general primary and secondary objectives of this protocol are stated below:Primary objective: Investigate the effect of surgery on the position and…
The overall aim of this strategy study is to directly compare the effectiveness of treatment with levetiracetam or valproic acid in glioma patients with de novo seizures. In addition, we aim to examine the level of toxicity, the impact of seizures…
Primary objective: - To develop an automatic segmentation algorithm using artificial intelligence for real-time intra-operative vessel segmentationSecondary objectives: - Post-operative evaluating the accuracy of…
The aim of our study is to study the safety of continued DOAC use during ICA or CAG in elective procedures, by comparing the risk of in-hospital and 30-day bleeding complications between continued and interrupted DOAC use.
To understand the mechanism of action of OA for the treatment of de novo, severely calcified coronary lesions prior to stent placement using optical coherence tomography (OCT) and to assess stent expansion, based on OCT derived minimal stent area (…
To identify molecular biomarker profiles that are associated with cervical tumorigenesis, and that can be used for development of an algorithm for detection of low grade CIN1, CIN2, CIN3 and cervical cancer. The algorithm should provide advice for…
The primary objective is to demonstrate efficacy of an extended remote monitoring intervention, including a TM app, HF nurse guided home care and multidisciplinary network collaboration using the Virtual Ward platform, on top of standard HF care…
To evaluate the safety, feasibility and efficacy of an 8-week remotely supervised home-based maintenance exercise training program following pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with COPD.
To investigate the effects of ICIs (anti-CTLA4, anti-PD1, combination anti-CTLA4/PD1) on vascular inflammation (PET-CT) in stage III melanoma patients. We hypothesize that the increase in vascular inflammation will be greater in the exposure group…

In patients diagnosed with a hip fracture who also have acute myocardial injury on presentation to hospital, is accelerated surgery superior to standard care for the primary outcome of death at 90 days after randomization?
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…
This project aims to explore the efficacy and safety of radiotherapy for asymptomatic pNET using delivery of radiotherapy by MR-linac in Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia 1 (MEN1) patients.
The primary objective of this clinical Research is: • The objective of the study is to investigate concept and feasibility of view automation for SHD interventions. The study will explore the contribution of (semi) automatic views based procedural…
