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…
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…
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 compare the short-term toxicity of the conventional schedule of 25 x 2 Gy, once daily fractionation in a five-week Overall Treatment Time (OTT) to 14 x 3 Gy, once daily fractionation in a three-week OTT, with respect to the rate of postoperative…
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…
1. To study the possibility to detect gynaecological malignancies and endometriosis in vaginal self-swabs, Pap smears and blood of women with gynaecological cancer or endometriosis, using MeD-seq and MeD-scan assays, in order to develop…
The purpose of this study is to generate clinical evidence related to key performance outcomes of Endurant II/IIs Stent Graft System versus Gore Excluder/Excluder Conformable AAA Endoprosthesis in subjects with AAA.
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,…
To determine the effect of a five-week vegetarian diet on innate immunity of patients with a recent myocardial infarction and healthy participants.
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 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 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…
Primary objective: to assess the relation of an ex vivo functional assay for tumor radiosensitivity with clinical tumor response of OPC patients treated with (chemo/bio-)radiotherapy at 3 months after treatment.Secondary objectives: - to assess the…
