To identify high risk patient groups for development of knee osteoarthritis (OA) in a cohort 9-10 years after meniscus, cruciate ligament and cartilage lesions.
The prupose if this study is; to accesss the feasibility of treatment of rAAA with a bifurcated endograft with the magnetic wire system to speed up the contralateral gate access.
In view of good pre-clinical and clinical results, it is thought that patients with renal cell cancer will benefit from BAY 43-9006 in a neoadjuvant setting.We anticipate a benefit with the treatment of BAY 43-9006 when there is a tumour reduction…
Excluding PE by a CDR indicating PE unlikely, assessed by the Wells simplified decision rule, combined with a normal D-dimer is safe and efficient.
As EGFR plays a role in pathogenesis of both pulmonary arterial hypertension and systemic sclerosis, EGFR inhibition will lead to beneficial effects in disease course.
Optimum timing of surgery for macula off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment can be determined in more detail by taking both duration and height of macular detachment into account.
Rationale: Accumulating evidence suggests that increased generation of leukotrienes (LT) by the 5-LO pathway may have direct actions on the vessel wall, particularly the adventitia, in the evolution of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Augmented…
urge incontinence is caused by overactivity of the detrusor muscle of the urinary bladder. Electrical stimulation of the pelvic floor muscles can suppress detrusor overactivity. The miniaturo tm-i system is designed to deliver mild electrical…
Psychological factors (such as depression, anxiety and life-events) play a role in the onset and course of CRPS1.
Cinacalcet is able to control hypercalciemia due to hyperparathyreoidism after renal transplantation ergo avoiding surgical removal of parathyroidtissue without jeopardizing renal function or eliciting serious adverse events.
p53 mutation in colorectal cancer provides an immunological window for immune therapy.
Patients with hypo- or dysgammaglobulinemia have comparable cellular immun respons to influenza vaccin as matched healthy volunteers.
Specific behavioural symptoms of dementia needs specific treatment. In cases, Levetiracetam seems to be effective in Non-psychotic and Non-depressive behavioural symptoms of dementia.
HIV infected patients receiving HAART have an increased risk for cardiac events/disease. In HAART naive patients increased arterial stiffness is substrate for this higher risk. In this study we investigate whether increased risk for cardiac events…
Based on studies in other types of cancer in humans where beneficial effects were obtained, and based on our pre-clinical data in a mouse model for malignant mesothelioma (MM), it now seems feasible and warranted to introduce dendritic cell (DC)-…
The prevalence of Growth Hormone Deficiency in Autoimmune Thyroid Disease is higher than in the general population
Cultured mesenchymal stem cells differentiated into osteoblasts and seeded on scaffolds can induce bone formation.
Because little is known on the effective and safe dosage of propofol when used for control of intracranial pressure in head-injured patients, propofol blood and cerebrospinal fluid concentrations and pharmacodynamics are characterized in order to…
After allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) the hematopoiesis is from donor origin. Laboratory and animal studies suggests that de dendritic cells of host origin are important in inducing graft versus myeloma effect and graft versus host…
Plasmalogens can be synthesized out of batyl alcohol (naturally occuring alkylglycerol) in patients with the peroxisomal disorder rhizomelic chondrodypslasia punctata (RCDP), bypassing the peroxisomal steps in the pathway.
