In the proposed project we aim to predict falls in daily life and to identify both aging- and disease-related impairments that underlie impaired postural control and an increased risk of falling in daily life.
Discrimination of probable AD patients from healthy volunteers by ZK 6032924 PET imaging as evaluated by visual analysis of the brain distribution patterns and by SUV values in probable AD patients as compared to healthy volunteers for brain imaging…
To examine neurocognition in 100 HIV1 seropositive patients on chronic effective cART using three different tests: the Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) , the International Aids Dementia scale (ADS) and extensive neuropsychological testing of…
To investigate whether stress (chronic and acute) influences cognitive functioning in PD.
We need objective and validated tests for the assessment of the severity of impairment in CFS/ME patients. In 2 areas these tests will be essential: for studies of the effect of interventions and for the assessment of disability.Hardly any research…
- To assess the usefulness of 5-HT phMRI (BOLD-, PWI and ASL based phMRI) in assessing cerebral 5-HT neurotoxicity when compared to SERT SPECT.- To assess which MRI technique (BOLD-, PWI or ASL) is best in assessing cerebral 5-HT neurotoxicity when…
OBJECTIVES: -to assess the usefulness of DA-phMRI (task related fMRI, steady state fMRI and ASL based phMRI) in assessing amphetamine induced DA-neurotoxicity when compared to DAT SPECT.-to assess which MRI technique (task related fMRI, steady state…
Our working hypothesis is based on the interplay between vascular dysregulation, neuropathological alterations and decline in AD brain function. In the latent phase vascular dysregulation is already apparent when patients are asymptomatic.…
The primary aim of the proposed multi-site study will be to determine internal and external validity of the proposed new diagnostic criteria.
The main aim of the study is therefore to examine mu wave activity during observation, execution of movements and during movement imagery in comparison to a passive resting state and active relaxation condition in stroke patients and matched healthy…
This pilot study aims to investigate the retina, macula and optic nerve head with Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) in AD patients in order to identify a neurodegenerative signature of AD in the eye. With Fundus Autofluorescence (FAF), amyloid…
Exploration and possibly chaniging of the VBMEG method to analyse dynamic changes in the connectivity network in epilepsy patients. This study is a prerequisite to apply the VBMEG method to a larger dataset to possibly identify a quantitative…
The overarching aim of this study is to develop new, sensitive measures for aspects of social cognition (emotion experience, empathy and affective theory of mind), that will contribute to a better and earlier diagnosis of specific subtypes (the…
Determination of possible Alzheimer pathology in the brain and to follow-up participants over time (by means of another research protocol). In addition, its [18F]-label with a half-life of 110 minutes will enable use in hospitals without an on-site…
1. To determine the feasibility of performing a few functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) tasks and clinical neurophysiological measurements in patients with mild to moderate AD.2. To validate the visual perception fMRI task in healthy…
To investigate the impact of different levels of anesthesia exposure on children*s neurocognitive development and evaluate the concurrent validity of different methods to assess neurodevelopmental outcome.
Objectives of the study are:- To investigate the difference in the nature and severity of objective visual disorders between patients with MS or PD who report visual complaints and those who do not report visual complaints.- To investigate the…
Do neonatal critically ill children aged 9-16 years have problems with visuomotor integration? If yes, which aspects of the visuomotor integration are affected and require a possible intervention?
The overarching aim of this study is to develop sensitive measures for aspects of social cognition that are crucial for the abilities to display adequate social-interpersonal behaviours, including traffic safety, as well as to develop better…
