The objective of this study is to investigate whether there is a relation between smartphone usage and psychological parameters in young adults. Taking into accordance the type of research (explorative, observational) and the present state of…
The goal of the project is to validate the developed standardized atrophy measurement method at VU University Medical Centre in patients with MS. This is done by testing how well the measurements of atrophy agree between different scanners and…
To assess the association between baseline blood pressure and change in neurocognitive functioning after four years, and to assess whether baseline MRI phenotypes are predictive for changes in neurocognitive functioning after four years in the DANTE…
The aim of the study is to expand an existing infrastructure for scientific research, i.e. a longitudinal observational study, for investigating physical, emotional, cognitive and social trajectories of functioning, their determinants and their…
The primary objective is to assess neuropsychological function in X-ALD patients without active cerebral demyelinating disease. Data of minors will be compared to matched healthy controls. Data of adults will be compared to reference values. The…
The current study aims to develop a novel approach to assess VO2max without any breathing restriction at the mouth by measuring maximal oxygen uptake in a respiration chamber.
The proposed study will further examine the effects of pregnancy on the human brain, by investigating structural and functional connectivity, local metabolite concentrations and neural activity related to social cognitive and memory processes.…
Primary Objective:First we need to establish that patients with an eating disorder and healthy controls differ in mental imagery. So, the first aim of our research is to compare the nature and characteristics (emotionality, vividness and perspective…
The purpose of this prospective study is to evaluate the value of 18F-FDG PET/CT and CT for preoperative regional N staging of bladder cancer and to verify the results by comparison with histopathological analysis, the gold standard.
Objectives: 1. To assess the prevalence of pain in elderly with dementia and to study the relationship between the various subtypes of dementia and the presence of specific types of pain(e.g. nociceptive pain, neuropathic pain, and orofacial pain).…
This study, comparing two cohorts, is designed to determine the postoperative residual mesorectum on MRI after TME. Patients with a clinical T1-3 rectal carcinoma (10cm or less from the anal verge based on preoperative MRI of the pelvis) who…
1. To validate accelerometer cut-points to asses physical activity and sedentary behavior of breast cancer survivors. 2. To investigate the validity of accelerometers, inclinometers, heart rate and oxygen consumption to assess time spent in…
The aim of this pilot study is to investigate if DRG stimulation can evoke motor reactions in the lower extremities in patients who have already been implanted with a DRG stimulator to treat neuropathic pain.
The main objective of this study is to compare levels of stress reactivity, social anxiety and cortisol in daily life between adults with ASD and healthy controls. Besides, fluctuations and interactions of these variables over time and their…
The primary objective is to obtain OCT data for children aged 4 to 10 diagnosed with non-syndromic craniosynostosis and to compare these to the normal reference values.
The overall objective of this study is to develop patient friendly and unobtrusive techniques to characterize motor function. In this context we will use video cameras combined with depth sensors (RGB-D sensors, such as Microsoft KinectTM) and…
The main goal of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of using 1) passive treadmill belt speed perturbations to measure spinal reflex activity in the calf muscles; and 2) active real-time visual feedback on dedicated gait parameters to highlight…
