The aim of this project is to evaluate the clinical value of biomarkers in adult patients with pulmonary hypertension, in particular:1) To quantify biomarkers of neurohormonal activity as NTproBNP, endotheline-1 and of immunological activity as CRP…
Development of new imaging techniques for MR-guided motion management in the presence of respiratory motion
To evaluate whether we can determine the health status of the joint by measuring biomarker levels using a newly developed assay by the University of Twente based on the multiplex measurement of a panel of relevant biomarkers using Surface Plasmon…
Primary Objective: 1. To compare total testosterone levels between male CCH and ECH patients and healthy controls To compare total testosterone levels in males with ECH during remission (remission ECH) and during an active…
The first aim of this study is to use an in vitro approach using patient's derived material to accurately and rapidly predict the optimal therapeutic approach that will predict a good clinical response in individual patients…
To develop a prediction model for BPD using a range of multimodal predictors assessed in the first two weeks of life.
Primary objectives: - To examine how environmental exposures influence the prevalence, 5-year incidence and progression of cardiometabolic and chronic respiratory disease in the general population. - To determine the mediation effect of lifestyle…
To investigate whether high perceived stress is associated with inflammatory reprogramming of innate immune cells and their bone marrow progenitors, and with increased arterial wall inflammation, in subjects with an increased CVD risk.
In this study, we therefore aim to investigate how trained immunity is systemically regulated in kidney transplant patients and how the degree of trained immunity affects graft survival in patients. A better understanding of these processes…
Sample collection for in vitro research
Previous studies have shown that the origin of trained innate immunity lies in the bone marrow and is determined by epigenetic and metabolic reprogramming in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. In this study, we investigate whether long-term…
The objective of this study is to further unravel the complexity of human milk and its variations over lactation stages and between individuals.
The primary objective of this clinical performance study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the B7-H4 (A57.1) Assay in identifying B7-H4 positive (B7-H4 membrane staining at any intensity in ≥25% tumor cells) ovarian, endometrial, biliary tract,…
Main objective: 1. Determine the feasibility, in terms of system fidelity and acceptability, of remote, image-based monitoring in cardiac surgery patients on a general ward. Secondary objectives: 1. The validity of remote, image-based heart- and…
The primary objective is to assess diagnostic accuracy of MRDTI/BTI for first and recurrent CVT in patients referred for MRI/MRV in the setting of routine clinical setting. The secondary objectives are to optimize MRDTI/BTI sequences for imaging…
The objective of this study is to support the pharma partner*s Phase III trial using Tina-quant Lipoprotein (a) RxDx assay for subject selection and optional batch testing of follow-up samples. This study is carried out to evaluate the performance…
The aim of the THRIVE study is to examine two objectives: 1. What are the mechanisms through which friendships aid resilience?a. Does friendship support relate to reduced neural stress responses in young adults with CA?b. Does friendship…
The aim of this research proposal is to examine the effect of different ISIs on mTc-MEPs.Primary research question: What is the effect of different interstimulus intervals (ISIs) on mTc-MEP thresholds, peak-to-peak amplitudes, and area under the…
The aim of this current proposal is to compare test methods for determining TFS performance, to establish detection thresholds for both CI users and normal hearing subjects and to produce normative data for the computer model and machine learning…
The primary objective is to explore whether central sensitization and/or abnormal CPM responses are present in (a subgroup of) patients who will receive shoulder arthroplasty for osteoarthritis, and whether shoulder arthroplasty produces change in…
