Efficacy and safety of MRI-based thrombolysis in wake-up stroke: a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial (WAKE-UP)
Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2017,
WAKE-UP is an investigator-initiated, multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial designed to test efficacy and safety of MRI-based intravenous thrombolysis in patients with wake-up stroke. Every year 1.5 million patients suffer a stroke in the EU. Up to 20% of stroke patients wake up with stroke symptoms. Currently these patients are excluded from thrombolysis which is the onl ...

Exploring and understanding adverse drug reactions by integrative mining of clinical records and biomedical knowledge (EU-ADR)
Start date: Feb 1, 2008, End date: Jan 31, 2012,
Serious adverse effects resulting from the treatment with thalidomide prompted modern drug legislation more than 40 years ago. Post-marketing spontaneous reporting systems for suspected adverse drug reactions (ADRs) have been a cornerstone to detect safety signals in pharmacovigilance. It has become evident that adverse effects of drugs may be detected too late, when millions of persons have alrea ...

Sensory and Biomechanical Markers in Diabetic Neuropathy of the Gut. Basic Investigations and New Approaches for Treatment (DIAMARK)
Start date: Nov 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2011,
"DIAMARK is focused on analysing the pathophysiology of diabetic neuropathy and to determine better biomarkers of the complications and approaches for intervention. Due to lack of standardisation, there are no accepted biomarkers to evaluate the neuropathy and its involvement in the GI tract. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the most common endocrine disorders affecting almost 6% (app. 246 million ...
