ETMI increases the detection rate of early neoplasia in BE patients with 40% or more compared to standard video endoscopy
In patient with clinically suspected appendicitis, imaging is needed to substantiate the clinical diagnosis. Imaging accuracy of US and CT is suboptimal, and the associated use of ionizing radiation and iodinated contrast medium are major drawbacks…

Pyridostigmine will activate the parasympathetic cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway and therefore reduce inflammatory signs and symptoms in patients with complex regional pain syndrome.
By using a proactive approach (prompts) compared to a reactive approach CT (computer tailored) program use will be increased by 20 %.
To identify candidate antigens for the development of a prophylactic Staphylococcus aureus vaccine by studying expression profiles of host and pathogen determinants during natural infection.
The hypothesis of the present study is to demonstrate that detection of a particular pattern (e.g., persistent vs. non-persistent) of myocardial (alpha)V(beta)3/5 expression by scintigraphy imaging at 3 and 8 weeks after MI can be used to determine…
1. It is hypothesized that participation in the Active plus program contributes to an increase in physical activity behaviour among older adults; 2. Additionally receiving physical and social environmental information results in an extra increase…
Therapeutic footwear of which adequate off-loading properties are guaranteed and monitored by dynamic plantar pressure assessment will result in a reduced plantar re-ulceration rate in diabetic patients with prior plantar foot ulceration compared to…
Nadroparine and fondaparinux are both effective in preventing a thromboembolic event in patients with a nonsurgical fracture of a lower extremity immobilised in a below-knee plaster cast.
The aim of the study is to determine whether cardiac output measurements obtained using APCO are comparable with those obtained using intermitted thermodilution cardiac output in critical ill patients.
The use of parenterally administered LEV in neonatal epileptic seizures, detected electrographically, with or without clinical signs, will be safe, and pharmacokinetic and –dynamic properties of the use in neonates will be determined.
The following research questions will be determined: 1. What is the effect of an nutritional intervention compared to usual care in undernourished patients of 65 years in general practice or using home care? 2. What is the cost effectiveness of an…
This is a dose-escalation study to determine the safe dose of clofarabine given in combination with cytarabine and liposomal daunorubicin.
The COL3A1 polymorphism is a inheritable genetic defect, responsible for the increased susceptibility to pelvic organ prolapse in women.
1. Prosthetic valve characteristics (type; location; size resulting in the presence/absence of PPM) are related to functional outcome and quality of life; 2. The incidence/spectrum of prosthetic valve-related complications in adults with CHD differs…
We hypothesize that exercise training improves maximal exercise capacity in adult patients with a systemic RV. Moreover, we hypothesize that exercise training decreases serum NT-proBNP levels and increases quality of life in adult patients with a…
The double labeled triglyceride and free fatty acid fat absorption test is as effective as the fecal fat balance as a quantitative diagnostic test for intestinal fat absorption in CF patients.
By detection of disease specific deviations in emotion processing in unipolar vs bipolar patients, affective neuropsychological tests and fMRI could be used to discriminate between both affective disorders.
