Primary: To investigate the effects of 300 mg aliskiren on albuminuria in patients with non-diabeticnephropathy treated with ramipril 10 mg and volume intervention.Secundary: Effects of ramipril and ramipril plus aliskiren. Effects on RAAS…
The key objective of this study is to assess next-day residual effects of MK-4305 (20 and 40 mg) via driving performance after 1 day of dosing and after 8 days of dosing.
Based on the hypothesis that hemodialysis with Hemocontol is associated with a greater and earlier increase in plasma vasopressin levels than standard dialysis, we examine whether there is a difference in the course of plasma vasopressin levels…
To investigate if there is a correlation between the peak GH concentrations after ingestion of gelatin protein and the peak GH concentrations after the two standard tests (GHST) in order to discriminate between GHD and non-GHD. To investigate the…
To establish the pharmacokinetic profiles of saliva and plasma concentration of 10 mg MPH-IR and 18 mg MPH-OROS in healthy volunteers; to investigate whether there is a correlation between saliva- and plasma levels of MPH-IR and MPH-OROS, and if…
The primary objective of the present study is to investigate the postprandial effect of arginine-rich protein (i.e. pea-protein) on metabolic control, inflammation and endothelial function after a high-fat meal in subjects with the metabolic…
Main objective of the study is to find out whether short duration pulses of blue light at high intensity in the morning are capable of inducing a phase advance of the circadian system.
The main question of this study is: *Is selective beta-blocker treatment safe and effective in reducing sympathetic overdrive, thereby improving RV function and remodeling in patients with iPAH?*.In addition to the determination of RVEF, we will…
We hypothesize, that during an oral glucose tolerance test, the OPS arterial flow measured sublingual will be comparable within the same subject, but different between young, elderly and type 2 diabetic patients. Objective is to quantify differences…
The main objective of this study is to assess the acute effect of co-ingested vinegar on postprandial plasma glucose levels in type 2 diabetes patients.
Our main objective is to determine the effect of HO-1 induction by heme arginate infusion on insulin resistance and endothelial dysfunction related to MetS. Secondary objectives are to determine the effect on adipose tissue, adiponectin plasma level…
Primary objective: to determine the effect of intake of one dose of isoflavones, as compared to placebo, for eight weeks on gene-expression in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) in post-menopausal, equol-producing women.Secondary Objectives…
Serum hepcidin levels are elevated in hemodialysis patients and may contribute to functional iron impairment and thus to ESA-resistance. Kinetics of hepcidin in hemodialysis patients has not been studied in detail. This study is designed to provide…
The purpose of this study is to test the acute effects of a TRP enriched meal in a dose-dependent manner in MS patients. The results of MS patients without mood disturbances (control group) will be compared to MS patients with mood disturbances (…
Objective of the study is the comparison of two previously developed computeralgorithms for the artificial pancreas (closed loop). One algorithm developed by a researchgroup in Cambridge UK, and an algorithm developed by research groups in Padua and…
The aim of the study is to assess the risk of impaired driving in the morning at 3 and 4 hours after a middle-of-the-night dose of zolpidem tartrate sublingual tablet 3.5 mg.
Primary objective:* To compare the clinical efficacy of nilotinib to DTIC, based on progression free survival (PFS), in the treatment of c-Kit mutated melanoma in patients who have not received prior therapy with TKIs.Key secondary objectives:* To…
Our primary objective is to determine whether blocking IL-1β by recombinant human IL-1ra (anakinra) improves beta-cell function in subjects with β-cell dysfunction.
The objective of this study is to test whether meat structure plays an important role in protein digestion, to maximise the amino acid availability and to stimulate the muscle protein growth in elderly people.
Investigate whether critical thinking of people with executive function deficits as a result of brain damage can improve by VTS.
