A Study of the Gut Microbiome in Hormone Receptor-positive HER2-negative Breast Cancer Treated With CDK4/6 Inhibitors
Ciclibiome is a prospective study including BC patients starting treatment with a CDK4/6 inhibitor (in the metastatic and in the adjuvant setting). This study will focus on the interplay between the gut microbiome (its composition and evolution during treatment), circulating immune, metabolic and cytokine biomarkers (before and during treatment), and …
Aortopathy Relationship To Imagery and Kinocardiography Features (ARTIK)
Kinocardiography (KCG) is a portable measurement technique developed to estimate cardiac mechanical performance by studying the vibrations produced by myocardial contraction during each heartbeat and transmitted to the body surface. The goal of this observational study is to learn about kinocardiography in patients with aortic valve disease (AVD) or thoracic …
Defects of Keratinocytes Function in Dermatologic Patients
NOTCH signaling in the skin exerts a pivotal role in the regulation of normal keratinocytes turnover by mediating the balance between proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and autophagic flux progression. Two skin diseases are characterized by the presence of gene variants that cause an impairment in NOTCH signaling: hidradenitis suppurativa(HS) and Dowling-Degos …
Lung Ultrasound for Physiotherapy in Hospitalized Patients With Respiratory Complications
This study aims to evaluate the relevance of using point-of-care lung ultrasound (LUS) in modifying the physiotherapist's treatment plan for patients hospitalized in a general ward.
Evaluation of the Epidemiological and Psychosocial Outcomes of Liver Graft Recipients Transplanted During Childhood
The main objective of this study is to better characterize the adult population with a history of liver transplantation in pediatric age. In this context, the investigators will use a questionnaire to assess the participants social environment and lifestyle habits and validated scales to assess their alcohol consumption and anxiety …
CKD Cachexia and Gut Microbiome
Cachexia is common in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Cachexia is a complex syndrome, in which inflammation and retention of uremic toxins are two main contributing factors. In this context, the role of the gut microbiome in CKD cachexia and the …
Treatment Optimization and Nephrolithiasis Recurrence Prevention With Interdisciplinary Care
Nearly 10% of the Belgian population suffer from kidney stone disease. Recent reviews reported that kidney stones represent an underestimated risk factor for further kidney function deterioration.

Silicone Particles in Breast Implant Capsules
Breast implantation is one of the most common surgical procedures in plastic surgery. It is used to reconstruct a breast after mastectomy following cancer or to increase breast volume for aesthetic purposes. Since their introduction in the 1960s, silicone breast implants have been the subject of multiple controversies, and their …
Reduced Ability to Make Decisions: a Study That Observe Differences in Patients With Fibromyalgia and Healthy Control
The literature has identified impairments in various cognitive functions, including learning, memory, attention, psychomotor speed, executive function, and working memory. However, only a few studies to date have investigated impairment in the decision-making process. The aim of this study is to evaluate decision-making skills in a group of patients with …
Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NET's) in Prevalent Kidney Stone
Neutrophils are first responders to any kind of threat the body faces: infection, severe trauma, cancer, surgery... They produce the cytokines, induct oxidative stress and de-granulate toxic proteins to kill pathogens. However the new mechanism related to the neutrophil extracellular traps release has been recognized as a new way of …
