To compare postprandial plasma amino acid concentrations over time after ingestion of a fixed amount of protein from different dairy products in healthy adults.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of a brief computer intervention to improve body satisfcation and self-esteem in a clinical population of adolescents with an eating disorder. We will examine whether the intervention is…
To investigate whether a test meal in gastric bypass patients with supplemented casein protein results in higher concentrations of satiety-related plasma amino acids and satiety-related hormones and leads to more postprandial satiety and less hunger…
To explore the ability of encapsulation of orally applied lipids in a yoghurt snack to modify ad libitum food intake and satiety, without GI symptoms.

Primary objective: The main objective of this pilot study is to gain more insight into the effects of tVNS: to assess if the ABVN and consecutively the NTS are really stimulated by tVNS. Therefore this study investigates the effects of tVNS on the…
Our goal is to manufacture a 3D-IOD which is designed digitally, and subsequently 3D-printed. Such 3D-IOD, can be made cheaper, faster and more patient friendly. To prove such a statement, patients should at least be even satisfied about their 3D-…
The main objective of this study is to find if there is a measurable improvement of transfemoral amputees standing up with the active knee support prosthesis (ERK) in comparison to standing up without active knee support.
The primary objectives are to investigate whether L-carnitine infusion may rescue lipid-induced insulin resistance and whether L-carnitine infusion is improving metabolic flexibility in the state of lipid-induced insulin resistance. Furthermore,…
