Low-Dose IL-2 For The Reduction Of Vascular Inflammation In ACS -Clinical Outcomes & Follow-up Study
The preceding IVORY trial (NCT04241601) has completed. As atherosclerosis and its complications are driven by inflammation the investigators hypothesise that treatment with low-dose IL2 may reduce adverse cardiovascular outcomes compared to placebo. In this follow-up study, the investigators aim to collect cardiovascular clinical outcome data for patients who completed the …
Prospective Registery of Smell/Taste Clinic Ear/Nose/Throat
Smell/taste disorders are common conditions with a significant impact on quality of life. In September 2021, a specific consultation for patients with smell and taste disorders was initiated at the ENT-HNS (ear, nose, and throat, head and neck surgery) department of UZ Leuven, partly in light of post-COVID-19 related smell …
Comparison of Molecular-Genetic Concordance of the Primary Tumor and Brain Metastases of Colorectal Cancer
GENCONCOR-1 study is translational research aimed to investigate the concordance of the molecular genetic profile of the primary tumor and brain metastases (BM) of colorectal cancer (CRC). The study was conducted by post hoc analysis of pairs of samples of histological material with determination of the mutational status of genes …
REGISTRY on the Implementation of Artificial Intelligence in the Automatic Analysis of Vascular Network Segmentation
The team hypothesizes that fully automatic analysis of AAA could provide increased performance (decreased duration of segmentation with increased reproducibility and decreased inter and intraobserver variability) to detect aortic aneurysmal sac enlargement (volumes and diameters) and predict the risk of complications during the procedure and during follow-up (MAE, MACE, MALE, …
Multimodal Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Evaluation of Diabetic Kidney Disease
The goal of this study is to investigate the value of noninvasive evaluation of multimodal magnetic resonance imaging in diagnosis and treatment of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). We aim to explore the feasibility of multimodal magnetic resonance imaging in the staging diagnosis of DKD, and establish a non-invasive method for …
FET-PET/MRI Based Treatment Planning for Glioblastoma Multiforme in Post-Surgical Patients (FET-TREAT)
GBM represent the most common primary brain malignancy and prognosis remains poor. The most common subtype is glioblastoma which has a 5-year survival rate of approximately 5%. Despite advances in MRI techniques, accurately determining total extent of tumor remains a challenge. The result is incomplete treatment resulting in reduced survival …
Effect of Dupilumab on Nasal Epithelial Barrier Function in Patients With CRSwNP
The investigators aim to investigate two major so far unresolved topics in CRSwNP research: (1) Thorough functional and molecular characterisation of barrier function in patients suffering from CRSsNP and CRSwNP and (2) effect of dupilumab treatment on barrier function in polyp patients. This will be achieved in patient-derived samples by …
Identification of Risk Factors and Construction of Prediction Model for Postoperative Intestinal Anastomotic Leakage in Ovarian Cancer
This study was a multicenter, retrospective cohort study. Although advancements in surgical techniques have mitigated the incidence of intestinal anastomotic fistula, complete avoidance remains elusive. Anastomotic leakage (AL) complications directly impinge on postoperative quality of life and pose life-threatening risks if inadequately managed. Given AL's adverse prognostic implications and the …
Exercise Capacity Muscle Oxygenation and Arterial Stiffness in Children With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
The primary aim is to evaluate pulmonary function, respiratory muscle strength, upper and lower extremity exercise capacity, muscle oxygenation, dyspnea, peripheral muscle strength, arterial stiffness, physical activity level and balance in children with pulmonary arterial hypertension and compare with age- and sex-matched healthy controls. The second aim is to investigate …
Use of a Physiotherapy Assessment to Predict Extubation Failure in Mechanically Ventilated Patients: the EPIC Assessment
"Weaning from mechanical ventilation is a crucial step in the intensive care unit. Several factors complicate weaning and increase the risk of failure. To predict the success of extubation, the spontaneous ventilation test (T-Tube) remains essential. Despite this, the failure rate is around 10-20%. Failed extubation is not without consequences, …
