The primary objective is to evaluate whether 2.5 µg VD3 analogue (Zemplar® * Abbvie) in multiple subcutaneously administered doses induces a more favourable (read: anti-inflammatory) systemic immune modulation both in general parameters and allergen…
Primary Objective(s): 1. To obtain preliminary data on whether (and to which extend) adjuvant chemotherapy for colon cancer results in (a) deterioration of contractile muscle properties and increased muscle fatigability, (b) increased inflammation…
Aim of this study is to examine the mechanisms by which attachment style and emotion regulation relate to depressive symptoms and anxiety symptoms in a clinical and non-clinical Dutch population.
Primary aim:In recently traumatized individuals (at the latest on day ten post trauma exposure) with a high initial level of distress, we aim to assess the effectiveness of intranasal OT in preventing symptoms of PTSD at one months post intervention…
In this double blinded randomised controlled trial we aim to compare the effects of 4 grams of oral butyrate tablets once daily following autologous (own) faecal transplantation with post-RYBG donor faecal transplantation with placebo tablets, at…
to investigate whether microbial transplantation from either allogenic (healthy) or autologous (own) donor, administered through a small intestinal tube, has beneficial effects on immune status, betacell function c-peptide secretion upon mixed meal…
Primary objective: To assess the effects of hypercaloric overfeeding in humans on vascular and metabolic insulin sensitivity and moreover, to establish whether insulin resistance develops in the vasculature before it occurs in peripheral tissue…
The primary objective of the proposed study is to investigate whether bumetanide therapy indeed reduces autistic symptomatology. Important secondary goals of this project are to determine whether bumetanide will improve specific behavioral,…
The purpose of the study is to investigate wether long-term resveratrol supplementation (6 months) leads to improved insulin sensitivity (estimated by Matsuda Index) in people with overweight/obesity. In addition we will investigate effects of…
To gain further insight into the interaction and possibly shared pathophysiological mechanisms of female-specific cardiovascular risk factors and events we will quantify white matter hyperintensities on brain MRI and assess endothelial function in…
Primairy objective:To compare the incidence of inflammation between the test group (MIPS technique using an Oticon Medical Ponto abutment and implant) and control group ( Hultcrantz technique using an Oticon Medical Ponto abutment and implant) after…
In view of this lack of evidence and strong practice variation we propose a randomized clinical trial in overweight and obese subfertile women, in which we compare the costs and effects of a six months structured lifestyle program, aimed at weight…
The primary objective is to assess feasibility of a food supplement (multispecies probiotic) placebo-controlled, randomised controlled, double blind intervention in pregnant women in their late second/third trimester of pregnancy, to reduce symptoms…
Primary objective: To investigate the effect of supplementation of a single intramuscular dose of 80 mg triamcinolone on the level of MPT-induced dynamic hyperinflation, in adult asthma patients with demonstrated dynamic hyperinflation. (Part 1)…
In this trial we now aim to investigate comprehensively the effect of riboflavin supplementation on the abundance of F. prausnitzii and on other members of the gut microbiota in faeces of healthy volunteers. Additionally we will assess whether…
To assess whether bile acids reach the brain after a meal
By relating valid learning fMRI phenotypes to the earliest expression of psychopathology and response to non-pharmacological self-management treatment, the project will contribute to the new innovative field of practical neuroimaging in the earliest…
The primary objective is to test the hypothesis that a protein-rich nutritional supplement (containing 45 g of dietary protein) prior to surgery acutely increases skeletal muscle and bone protein synthesis rates in older patients undergoing a hip…
PrimaryThe 3 months* effect of Vildagliptin on insulin synthesis and storage capacitySecondaryThe 3 months* effect of vildagliptin on- Glucose, insulin, C-peptide levels- Hormonal axes, most importantly GLP1 and GIP and Glucagon- Body weight, body…
The main objective of this study is to assess whether ICD therapy in dialysis patients reduces sudden (arrhythmogenic) cardiac death. The first secondary end point is to compare total mortality death between the two groups. An other is to evaluate…
