Systematic gathering of biomaterial and phenotypic data of IBD patients during clinical care provides assessment of molecular markers in the DNA, the transcriptome and proteome. The markers can be associated with the different disease phenotypes…
Comparison of hearing preservation and outcome of two fundamentally different cochlear implants designs (LW or PM) and the two most used surgical approaches (RW or CO). Secondly, asses the structure preservation (i.e., scalar position) of each…
This study is designed to gather prospective data on a) the clinical effectiveness, b) the tissue structure changes, and c) the short term costs of ankle joint distraction (AJD) in 10 patients with HAA during 10 years follow-up.
The overall aim of this strategy study is to directly compare the effectiveness of treatment with levetiracetam or valproic acid in glioma patients with de novo seizures. In addition, we aim to examine the level of toxicity, the impact of seizures…
To prospectively validate the safety and efficiency of management according to the YEARS algorithm to safely rule out clinically suspected PE in patients with active malignancy to be compared with `standard' management by CTPA alone in a…
To develop a prediction model for BPD using a range of multimodal predictors assessed in the first two weeks of life.
To evaluate the (cost-)effectiveness of SBRT (with active dose-sparing of the surgical site) followed by surgical stabilization with or without decompression within 24 hours for the treatment of symptomatic, unstable metastases of the cervical,…
We will combine four 7 Tesla MRI markers in extremely preterm infants (MRSI; SWI; PC-MRI; ihMT) to assess (1) if they can predict outcome until 2 years of age; (2) if they are of added value to 3 Tesla prematurity (Kidokoro et al., 2013) and (3) if…
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 assess the effectiveness of a cerclage in women with a twin pregnancy with a midpregnancy short cervix compared to standard treatment (no cerclage) in the prevention of extreme preterm birth (PTB) < 28 weeks of GA.
The LIMONCELLO study aims to assess the effect and cost-effectiveness of TMPC compared to usual care.
To evaluate in SSc patients with low risk for disease progression 1) whether assessment in an outpatient clinic setting is an acceptable alternative for evaluation in the Care Pathway. Outcome parameters we will evaluate include 1) health care…
To assess the feasibility of a larger study comparing HFNO with NIV as first line treatment in hypercapnic, acidotic AECOPD.
To demonstrate the ability of using non-invasive 31P-MRS to monitor changes of in vivo markers of mitochondrial function in skeletal and cardiac muscles (i.e., skeletal muscle PCr recovery rate constant and cardiac PCr/ATP ratio)…
The aim of this study is to determine whether multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) of the bladder, in combination with an outpatient biopsy for histological confirmation, is a faster, safer, cheaper and therefore more cost-effective way to detect or…
The aim of this research is to decrease the number of involved margins, resulting in less adjuvant therapy and less local recurrences.
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 main objective of this study is to determine whether tubal flushing with oil-based contrast during HSG results into more pregnancies leading to live births when compared to tubal flushing with ExEm-foam during HyFoSy, and whether this approach…
To gain insight in the disease mechanisms of IBD, the immune system, gut and oral microbiome, environmental factors, the intestinal mucus barrier, intestinal epithelium, nutritional factors and metabolome will be studied in unaffected siblings of…
Determination of the (cost)effectiveness of the replacement of the expensive, risky and time-consuming food challenge test bythe Basophil Activation Test (BAT) for the diagnosis of an IgE-mediated cow*s milk allergy in children.
