To evaluate the effectiveness of eccentric calf muscle exercise therapy compared to strength training of the upper extremities (control group) in patients with chronic midportion Achilles tendinopathy.
This intervention study investigates the effectiveness, costs and cost-effectiveness of a protein-enriched diet and resistance exercise training for 3 months on bone and muscle health, and quality of life in older adults recovering from an acute…
To evaluate the safety, feasibility and efficacy of an 8-week remotely supervised home-based maintenance exercise training program following pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with COPD.
To investigate the effects of ICIs (anti-CTLA4, anti-PD1, combination anti-CTLA4/PD1) on vascular inflammation (PET-CT) in stage III melanoma patients. We hypothesize that the increase in vascular inflammation will be greater in the exposure group…
This project aims to investigate peripheral and central neuroplasticity following an early (<13 weeks after injury) and intensive (8 weeks of 6 hours of additional therapy) upper extremity motor training program (EIUMT)…
Phase 2 pilot-study: to examine feasible exercise dosages in patients with mCRC and collect data on preliminary effects on clinical outcomes.Phase 3 trial: to collect data on the efficacy of exercise on 1) chemotherapy dose modifications and 2)…
To investigate the impact of different doses of handgrip exercises (moderate vs high intensity) and stimuli (exercise vs ischemia) on the ability to protect endothelial damage from ischemia-reperfusion injury in healthy humans. A secondary goal is…
In this research, we are comparing two distinct physiotherapy treatments as post-operative care following shoulder arthroscopy (Bankart repair). Our aim is to gain a better understanding of how to provide optimal post-operative care for patients…
Primary:1. Do twelve weeks of MegaPower training effectively accomplish patient-tailored participation and activity goals in ambulant children with CP, when compared to their usual care? Secondary:1. Do twelve weeks of MegaPower training improve…
Primary Objective The primary objective of this study is to compare the 3-year overall survival of stage III NSCLC patients during follow-up surveillance with 18F FDG PET/CT versus follow-up with conventional CT surveillance. Secondary…
The aim of the RADICES study is to investigate the effects of a 12-week exercise and nutrition intervention for patients with metastatic oesophageal or gastric cancer. The intervention will be completely tailored to the condition and nutritional…
Primary: To investigate the effect of a 4-week VR-exergame intervention on handgrip strength in patients staying in the ICU for 48 hours or longer compared to standard rehabilitation practices.Secondary: To investigate the longer term effect of a 4…
This strategy will result in a reduction reduce the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) defined as death or non-fatal myocardial infarction and appear more efficient than care as usual.
To compare safety and efficacy of treatment with sentinel lymph node biopsy guided elective neck irradiation versus standard elective neck irradiation in patients receiving definitive (chemo)radiotherapy for squamous cell carcinoma of the…
Primary objective: determine whether HAPTOS intervention results in earlier attainment (postnatal days) of full enteral feeding and/or full oral feeding (postmenstrual age) compared to standard care. Secondary objectives: To determine whether…
Primary objectives1. To determine the effect of a tailored exercise program by using the widely implemented exercise app *Physitrack* on experienced pain and fatigue in patients with FSHD.2. To investigate the relationship between perceived pain…
To compare the effect of a 6-month of enriched care consisting of additional protein intake and regular resistance exercise on the prevalence of disproportional fat-free mass loss (defined as a FFML/WL>30% as main outcome parameter) in…
Primary Objective:The aim of this study is to evaluate whether the effect of PFMT on pelvic floor muscle strength could be detected via 4D ultrasonography strain measurements in patients with SUI. Secondary Objective(s)- To determine the…
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the added value of PSMA PET/CT and PSMA-targeted biopsies of PSMA-avid lesions in detecting ISUP GG ≥ 2 prostate cancer in patients with a negative or equivocal MRI (PIRADS 1-3) and a PSA density…
To explore the effect of acute local handgrip exercise on the ability to protect against myocardial damage in ex vivo models of myocardial ischaemia-reperfusion e.g. the Langendorff perfused rat heart, isolated cardiomyocytes from rat heart, and…
