the objective of the current study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of enzyme therapy in the Dutch population of patients with MPS I, II and VI; to compare this to the natural course of these diseases; to make an inventory of the direct and…
The main objective is to study pregnancy rates after using metabolomic profiling added to the selection of viable embryos by morphology, compared to using only morphology.
Primary aim: To investigate whether PET-CT (using [18F]FDG, [18F]Fluoride and [11C]PK11195 as tracers) visualizes inflamed tissues of AS patients, with clinical scores as reference Secondary aim: To investigate whether reduction of inflammation by…
To compare accuracy, patient experience and costs of lower gastrointestinal endoscopy (sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy) between nurse and physician endoscopists.
The aim is to understand which individuals benefit from antibiotics.
The development of a valid and reliable test intended to measure functional motor activities in daily life of children with DCD.
The aim of this study is assessment of right ventricular function: a comparison between MRI and real-time 3-D echocardiography (RT 3-D echo). We have the following research questions: 1) Is assessment of right ventricular (RV) function with RT 3-D…
This study wants to evaluate on intraoperative MRI whether contrast enhancement at the borders of the resection cavity correlates with tumor tissue, and whether no contrast enhancement correlates with the absence of tumor tissue. To differentiate…
Primary: To investigate whether high-resolution MRI, 18F-FDG PET, and microemboli detection, or a combination of these techniques, enable to identify patients in the 30-69% stenosis group with an increased stroke risk. Secondary: To compare the…

Relation between mixed venous and central venous saturation in sepsis: influence of source of sepsis
Measurement in an observational setting of mixed en central venous oxygen saturations during the first 24 hours will provide interesting data. Not only can the influence of the sourse of sepsis on these data be described, but also the effect of…
