A core part of the scientific efforts of ENS@T researchers bases on the establishment of a common registry and associated collection of biomaterials. Patients with adrenal tumours prospectively included in the ENS@T registry will be asked to provide…
1. To explore the validity and usefulness of Bone Microindentation Technique (BMT) in the assessment of bone quality in patients with osteoporosis and a spectre of bone diseases characterised with (localised) increased bone turnover. 2. To study the…
To determine the sensitivity and specificity of salivary metanephrines and in patients with PCC/sPGL.
The aim of this study is to investigate if the NETest is useful in the follow up program after curative resection in patients with pNET. Therefore the diagnostic accuracy of the NETest in resected patients with pNET will be analysed. The study is…
The aim of this study is to determine novel (bio)markers that show a stronger correlation with signs of over- and under-treatment than the conventional adrenal steroid profile in children with CAH.
To compare Bone Material Strength of the tibia at the side of a fracture or arhtrodesis with that of the opposite tibia in patients who had been immobilized for at least 6 weeks after a recently sustained fracture of the ankle of calcaneus or after…
The primary objective of this study is to assess the relation between the short term metabolic changes after start of rhGH therapy and the long term change in height SDS after one year of treatment. Secondly, we want to assess the effects of GH on…
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…
1. Examen if the outcome of the 1 mg Overnight Dexamethasone suppression test is influenced by the use of oral contraception.2. Examen how many weeks after ceasing the use of orale contraception the 1 mg Overnight Dexamethason suppression test is…
Comparison of the salivary cortisol response after a standardized exercise test between prepubertal heathy children and children with asthma.
Primary objective: Assessment of the value of the short-term (2 weeks) response of IGF-I (peak IGF-I SDS) to GH in a dosage of 1.4 mg/m2/day (as part of a dose-escalation IGF-I generation test) in comparison to baseline IGF-I to predict the 1 year…
Here we propose to perform a prospective, randomized, multicenter study that compares effectiveness of AVS with effectiveness of CT-scanning for the diagnosis of PA subtype. There is no criterion standard for accuracy of the diagnosis of PA-subtype…
To investigate if there is a correlation between the peak GH concentrations after ingestion of gelatin protein and the peak GH concentrations after the two standard tests (GHST) in order to discriminate between GHD and non-GHD. To investigate the…
The purpose of the study is to determine the sensitivity of dopamine platelets levels in patients with clinically suspected or diagnosed HNPGL, abdominal PGL, and pheochromocytoma. Primary Objective: The sensitivity of dopamine levels in platelets…
To study the correlation between salivary T and (measured and calculated) serum free T.
Establishment whether usage of high viscosity PMMA bone cement in PVP for OVCFs leads to a reduction in leakage incidence compared to usage of conventional (low-medium) viscosity PMMA bone cement in PVP for OVCFs.Since evidence is scarce or…
Our goal is to evaluate if this onsite assessment and aspiration during punction reduces inadequacy of specimens and see if onsite assessment by the aspirator is performed accurately after a brief instruction by a cytopathologist. Primary Objective…
Primary objective: to obtain an comparison of the diagnostic result after an ultrasound assisted fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of the thyroidal gland by use of a smaller diameter (25G) and / or a special coating.
To facilitate the localization of a parathyroid adenome during surgery (MIP) with a radioactive iodine 125 (I-125) marker. This marker is placed preoperatively ultrasound guided in the affected parathyroid gland, and can be detected with a gamma…
Main objectiveTo describe the experienced pain sensations of temperature and to describe the different temperature sensitivity thresholds using Quantitative Sensory Test (QST) in the different patient groups.secondairy objectiveAs a measure of the…
