Mastoid Obliteration Using S53P4 Bioactive Glass Versus Mastoidectomy Alone for Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media
Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) is characterized by intermittent or continuous otorrhea lasting for longer than 6 weeks. Most cases can be treated conservatively using antibiotic drops and oral antibiotics. However, some cases will not respond to conservative treatment and demonstrate persistant discharge. In these cases, especially if a CT-scan …
The STEREO-DBS Study: 7-Tesla MRI Brain Network Analysis for Deep Brain Stimulation
Rationale: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the nucleus subthalamicus (STN) is an effective surgical treatment for the patients with advanced Parkinson's disease, despite optimal pharmacological treatment. However, individual improvement after DBS remains variable and 50% of patients show insufficient benefit. To date, DBS-electrode placement and settings in the highly connected …
Predicting Response In Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia to Topical Imiquimod Treatment
Imiquimod is a good non-invasive treatment option for women with cervical high-grade squamous intraepithelial neoplasia (cHSIL), especially those with a possible (future) pregnancy wish. Complete response to imiquimod occurs in 55-73% of patients, however side-effects of imiquimod are common and can be extensive. Therefore, biomarkers which can predict response to …
Lateral Nodal Recurrence in Rectal Cancer
Local recurrence rates in rectal cancer have reduced dramatically since the introduction of the total mesorectal excision (TME) technique and neoadjuvant (chemo)radiotherapy (C))RT) to overall rates of 5-year local recurrence to 5-10%. However, distal rectal cancers have a tendency to spread to lateral lymph nodes and it was recently shown …
Netherlands Cohort Study on Acute HIV Infection
Investigation of the size, variability and localization of the (pro) viral reservoir and the properties of HIV-specific immune response related to "post-treatment viral remission' achievement and / or duration. In addition we will study the factors that determine latency in the different host cells, their sensitivity to induction of replication …
The Effectiveness of Forensic Outpatient Systemic Therapy: a Multiple Case Experimental Design
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness and mediators of Forensic Outpatient Systemic Therapy (FAST).
Dutch-AMR: Early Mitral Valve Repair Versus Watchful Waiting in Asymptomatic Patients With Severe Mitral Regurgitation
Rationale Severe asymptomatic organic Mitral Valve (MV) regurgitation with preserved left ventricular (LV) function is a challenging clinical entity as data on the recommended treatment strategy for these patients are scarce and conflicting, which is reflected in current guidelines. European guidelines advocate a more conservative strategy i.e. watchful waiting, with …
Oral Hedgehog Inhibitors in the Treatment of Basal Cell Carcinoma in the Netherlands: a Prospective Registration Study
Background: Oral hedgehog inhibitors vismodegib and sonidegib have been used for the treatment of locally advanced (laBCC), metastatic basal cell carcinoma (mBCC) and in basal cell nevus syndrome (BCNS) patients. In the Netherlands, targeted therapy with vismodegib and sonidegib has been available since 2013 and 2021, respectively. No direct comparative …
The TearAD Study: Tear Biomarkers for Alzheimer's Disease (AD) Screening and Diagnosis
The goal of this observational longitudinal study is to investigates whether tear fluid is a non-invasive source of biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease. The main aim of the study is to evaluate diagnostic accuracy measures (sensitivity and specificity) of tear and retinal biomarkers to discriminate individuals with and without neurodegeneration. Tear …
Cerebral Blood Flow in Neonates During Major Cardiac Surgery.
Rationale: During cardiac surgery, neonates are at high risk of cerebral damage: 36-78% will have new cerebral lesions after surgery. Adequate cerebral perfusion (CBF) is mandatory to prevent postoperative brain damage and neurobehavioral outcomes. For CBF, the systemic blood pressure should be managed above the brain's critical closing pressure (CrCP), …
