Morphological and functional changes of the median nerve after neurolysis for carpal tunnel syndrome
The objectives of this study are twofold:1. To describe morphological and functional changes of the median nerve after neurolysis using US and NCS. 2. To correlate the morphological and functional changes to the clinical symptoms and signs
The primary objective of this investigator initiated project is to determine whether the use of the WalkinSense in the production of new fully customized therapeutic footwear for diabetic patients with a history of foot ulceration results in lower…
To investigate whether sodium and potassium mutations are found in a cohort of patients with small fiber neuropathy, painful diabetic neuropathy (versus diabetes patients with no or only minor symptoms) and in patients with breast, ovarium or…
PrimaryTo assess the preventative effect of GLPG1205 on nociceptive and inflammation/sensitization induced pain in the UVB sunburn model using HPTol upon multiple dosing of GLPG1205 versus placebo.SecondaryTo further assess the preventative effect…
The purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of (repeated) cast immobilization on the bone strength of the lower leg in patients with diabetes mellitus. In this study, bone strength is examined by cortex thickness in millimeters and density…
To study the effect of a nerve block of the infrapatellar nerve with local infiltration with lidocaine or saline on chronic anterior knee pain after tibial nailing.Secondairy objectives:- to measure knee pain on a VAS for eight different activities…
Objectives: 1. To assess the prevalence of pain in elderly with dementia and to study the relationship between the various subtypes of dementia and the presence of specific types of pain(e.g. nociceptive pain, neuropathic pain, and orofacial pain).…
In this research project we explore anti-nociception as a state of pain modulation. Our main objectives in utilizing the plasticity of the central pain pathways are to: (i) Shift individuals from a pro-nociceptive pain modulation profile to an anti-…
To assess variation in and between a small cohort of ACNES patients and healthy human volunteers.
De lnternational CIDP Outcome Study (ICOS) aims to describe in detail the variation in clinical and electrophysiological subtypes, current practice of treatment, clinical course and outcom in CIDP. The second objective is to define the clinical and…
To develop pulse transit time into a diagnostic device which can be used to assess an altered cold/heat mediated vasomotor response (CHMV) (central component) and the flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) (peripheral component) in CRPS patients.
The goal of this study is to examine the effect of cooling on neuropathy in the hands of patients who are treated with Paclitaxel, Docetaxel en Oxaliplatin. Patients who will be included in the study are those who start with chemotherapy. The…

To clarify the aetiology of CTS and prognostic factors for the development of CTS.
Implement a survey initiative to assess HIV prevalence for one or more diseases and/or conditions within a specific segment of the population not yet diagnosed with HIV and that present for care with the specific disease/condition.
To determine the influence of a pure sensory polyneuropathy on balance correction in light of the first trial response and in light of multiple succesive identical perturbations, compared to healthy control subjects.
To study the inflammatory response (induration) to intracutaneous Candida albicans in healthy individuals, patients with diabetes without polyneuropathy, patients with diabetic polyneuropathy and patients with a history of Charcot neuro-…
To estimate the frequency/ prevalence of acute or active HEV infection in patients presenting with (sub)acute post-infectious and/or immune-mediated neurological illness like neuralgic amyotrophy, (idiopathic) Guillain Barre syndrome, idiopathic…
The aim is to investigate static and dynamic tissue oxygenation state and skin temperature in patients with CRPS-I and to compare CRPS-I patients with pain patients and healthy controls. The correlation between tissue oxygenation, skin temperature…
The aim of this study is to test the hypothesis that a combination of optimized intravenous pain therapy and continuous sciatic nerve block decreases the point prevalence of phantom limb pain 12 months after transtibial amputation for peripheral…
