The effects of intravenous TRH administration on brown adipose tissue activity in healthy, lean men.
To investigate whether BAT tissue can be activated by intravenous administration of TRH. Secondary objectives are to determine whether intravenous TRH increases the degree of cardiovascular sympathetic stimulation and the response of skin…
To demonstrate differences in intracutaneous sodium storage between a control population, patients admitted after elective cardiothoracic surgery and septic patients.
To identify some of the mechanisms in patients in remission of Cushing*s syndrome that contribute to the persistence of visceral obesity, systemic inflammation, insulin resistance, sarcopenia, a low muscle oxidative capacity and increased risk of…
Primary objective: To explore whether prolonged moderate alcohol consumption affects in vivo cytokine response after a low dose of LPS in young, normal-weight men.Secondary objectives: To explore whether prolonged moderate alcohol consumption-…
The primary objective of this clinical controlled trial is to define the overall effect of adenocorticotropic hormone on coagulation parameters in patients with primary adrenal insufficiency (as diagnosed by their physician by previous short ACTH…
Primary objectives: Stress response: To determine whether acute alcohol consumption shortly after a psychological/mental stressor attenuates the stress response recovery.Cholinergic status: To determine whether prolonged moderate alcohol consumption…
To investigate the changes in facial- and hand analysis in patients with acromegaly as a result of medical treatment and pituitary surgery, and to investigate the changes in relational proportions between facial- and hand structures, incidence and…
1. To examine the effect of cold on post-prandial triglyceride metabolism using a standardized meal test during and after cold exposure 2. To examine the relationship between cold-induced brown adipose tissue activity and the changes in…
The current study is designed to collect viable growth plate tissue of tall statured individuals that undergo percutaneous epiphysiodesis (PE). With this collected biomaterial we will be able to characterize dynamic changes in growth plate…
To assess whether premature aging of both the innate and adaptive arms of theimmune system are associated with COVID-19 morbidity and mortality. Identify immune (andendocrine) parameters that might be of use in predicting disease progression and…
The primary objective is to test the hypothesis that rhPTH(1-84) treatment can result in superior improvements in the symptoms of hypoparathyroidism as assessed by the Hypoparathyroidism Symptom Diary (HPT-SD) symptom subscale compared with standard…
In this study we will investigate how safe specific doses of the compound paltusotine are and how well these are tolerated when they are used by healthy participants.We also investigate how much of the compound is broken down and absorbed in the…
We will determine in a prospective cohortl study, differences between frequent screen users and infrequent screen users in sleep onset time, wake-up time, mid-sleep time, sleep duration, body mass index and melatonin onset. In the randomized cross-…
Primary Objective: to identify risk factors and the underlying mechanism of AFFs by:- setting up a database with detailed information to define patients* characteristics.- building a biobank with urine and blood samples from these patients. -…
