The objective of the study is to quantify heat acclimation in female subjects aged 20-30 and aged over 75.
Shoulder load and daily activities compared between power assisted and manual wheelchair propulsion.
The primary objective is to compare forces and moments acting on the shoulder of manual wheelchair users during power assisted wheelchair propulsion and manual wheelchair propulsion and the perceived upper extremity load. The secondary objectives…
Primary Objective: Primary endpoints will be renal (ERPF, GFR and FF) response to angiotensin II after low and high sodium diet in formerly preeclamptic patients compared to healthy controls. Secondary Objectives: Secondary endpoint will be systemic…
Overall objective:The overall objective is to test the hypothesis that GLP-1 receptor activation of CNS reward and satiety circuits occurs, in the context of food(-related) stimuli, and that this effect is altered in individuals with obesity and…
To understand more of the learning principles of vegetable consumption in young children (2-4 years). The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of flavour nutrient learning on vegetable preference and intake. Primary Objective: To…
This investigation has two main objectives:- Study the moldulation of task dependent gamma activity by the effects of the benzodiazepines dose in the GABAergic networks and its consequences for working memory performance.- Study the moldulation of…
The primary objective of this study is to investigate fatigue related brain activation in individuals with high fatigue complaints compared to individuals with low fatigue complaints. Furthermore, the impact of induced fatigue will be examined in…
To investigate the brain responses to images of high and low calorie foods and those during food choice, and to determine gender differences in these responses.
Primary Objective: • to study the effect of intake of two isoflavone preparations, as compared to placebo, for eight weeks on gene-expression in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) in post-menopausal women.Secondary Objectives: • to determine…

To determine the effect of replacing added sugar by non-caloric sweeteners in a nutrient-rich matrix (dairy drink yoghurt) and in a nutrient-empty matrix (soft drink) on long-term reward value.
To assess and compare the inflammatory response upon three acute challenge tests (glucose, fat, glucose + fat) and to compare these responses to a non-challenged condition.
To study whether the administration of oxytocin leads to stronger empathic responses on 3 different empathy-related tasks compared to a placebo.
Study 1:- Determine whether loss aversion behaviour (i.e. increased sensitivity to losses compared to gains) is modulated by dopamine levels using a pharmacological challenge- Assess whether this effect is accompanied by the modulation of brain…
To assess time trial performance following 1x140 mL dose of concentrated beetroot juice containing ~8 mmol of nitrate (NO3-) ingested 3 h prior to the onset of exercise.
The present project aims to determine the role of DA transmission in novelty-related responses, both behavioral and psychophysiological. Such findings can yield new insights into pathologies in which a disruption of novelty processing is a central…
