1. To establish whether serial exhaled breath analysis using eNose can detect invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in patients with prolonged chemotherapy induced neutropenia (neutrophil counts <0.5 x 10^9 for more than 7 days).2. To establish…
Primary objective of this study is to assess the reliability, validity, and diagnostic value of the neuromechanical parameters of joint impedance estimated by nonlinear SIPE technology in patients with a spastic paresis.
1. Discribe the normal development of mastication in healthy children aged between 6 and 48 months by using the Mastication Observation and Evaluation (MOE). Which oral motor behaviours occurs?2. Determine the differences in mastication between…
Primary objective:to identify new and improved disease biomarkers and establish the biochemical and molecular basis for variations in the clinical presentation of the different groups of tumors.Secondary objectives:• compare the diagnostic utility…
The purpose of this study is to investigate the intra- and inter-rater reliability and the validity of the IMMS for measurement of 3D scapular movement in shoulder patients a potential of mild to severe scapular dyskinesis.
The main objective is to develop an objective symptom profile of chronic neck pain patients which addresses more facets of the health problem, including sensorimotor dysfunction. The first stage is the establishment of an objective quantification of…
(1) Investigate diagnostic performance (sensitivity) of HD bronchoscopy, with or without surface enhancement or tone enhancement in comparison to standard WLB for detecting abnormalities of the tracheobronchial tree. Furthermore we aim to…
The purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of endothelial cells in TEG-cups compared to plain (no endothelial cells) cups on coagulation and fibrinolysis.
1) To demonstrate an elevated troponin concentration before exercise and a rise of troponin after exercise in both pre-clinical HCM mutation carriers and HCM patients with the hypertrophic phenotype, 2) To evaluate the troponin rise in relation to…
To demonstrate that CLT is more sensitive for keratoconus detection compared to other corneal topography methods.
The aim of this study is to compare the 16S PCR technique with standard bacterial cultures of infected vascular grafts, mycotic aneurysms and non-infected aortic aneurysms.
Primary objective: To estimate the incidence of clinical and radiological DRUJ instability after a conservatively treated distal radius fracture using clinical tests and CT-scan, and to assess the value of CT for diagnosing DRUJ instability using…
Our main objective is to investigate if and how discourse comprehension of individuals with aphasia is influenced by the occurrence of direct speech constructions. Furthermore, we aim to investigate whether there is an effect of the underlying…
An online testing approach to assess cognitive problems associated with cancer and cancer treatment.
The aim of the proposed project is to develop a user-friendly and standardized online neuropsychological test battery. It will be a concise test, measuring those domains which have proven to be most sensitive to the adverse effects of chemo- and…
The results are used to develop a computer model that can predict speech intelligibility for hearing impaired people, even after signal processing. A model like that can be used to choose the most optimal hearing aid settings in the future.…
To examine neurocognition in 100 HIV1 seropositive patients on chronic effective cART using three different tests: the Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) , the International Aids Dementia scale (ADS) and extensive neuropsychological testing of…
The feasibility of direct-detection of fibrotic tissue will be assessed in patients with a healed myocardial infarction and in patients with cardiomyopathy using LGE as reference standard.
The primary objective is to study 1/ cross-sectionally the prevalence of bone erosions and 2/ longitudinally the progression of bone erosions in the 2nd and 3rd proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joints and metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints of the hands…
The overall aim is to develop an objective symptom profile of non specific neckpain patients which addresses more facets of the health problem, including sensorimotor dysfunction. The first stage is the establishment of an objective quantification…
Objectives: The objective of the study is to observe the sorbitol clearance and compare this to ICG clearance in different circumstances of normal and compromised liver blood flow.
