The primary objective is to evaluate whether 2.5 µg VD3 analogue (Zemplar® * Abbvie) in multiple subcutaneously administered doses induces a more favourable (read: anti-inflammatory) systemic immune modulation both in general parameters and allergen…
Primary aim:In recently traumatized individuals (at the latest on day ten post trauma exposure) with a high initial level of distress, we aim to assess the effectiveness of intranasal OT in preventing symptoms of PTSD at one months post intervention…
In this double blinded randomised controlled trial we aim to compare the effects of 4 grams of oral butyrate tablets once daily following autologous (own) faecal transplantation with post-RYBG donor faecal transplantation with placebo tablets, at…
To test the hypothesis that metabolic inflexibility in pre-diabetic subjects and diabetic patients is due to a reduced capacity to form acetylcarnitines: We aim to investigate whether glucose intolerant subjects have a lower capacity to form acetyl-…
Primary Objective: To study the change on performance on executive function and memory function (as measured on Neurocart), after an active challenge with methylphenidate (monoaminergic) and galantamine (cholinergic), compared to placebo, in…
The purpose of the study is to investigate wether long-term resveratrol supplementation (6 months) leads to improved insulin sensitivity (estimated by Matsuda Index) in people with overweight/obesity. In addition we will investigate effects of…
The primary objective is to assess feasibility of a food supplement (multispecies probiotic) placebo-controlled, randomised controlled, double blind intervention in pregnant women in their late second/third trimester of pregnancy, to reduce symptoms…
Primary objective: To investigate the effect of supplementation of a single intramuscular dose of 80 mg triamcinolone on the level of MPT-induced dynamic hyperinflation, in adult asthma patients with demonstrated dynamic hyperinflation. (Part 1)…
In this trial we now aim to investigate comprehensively the effect of riboflavin supplementation on the abundance of F. prausnitzii and on other members of the gut microbiota in faeces of healthy volunteers. Additionally we will assess whether…
By relating valid learning fMRI phenotypes to the earliest expression of psychopathology and response to non-pharmacological self-management treatment, the project will contribute to the new innovative field of practical neuroimaging in the earliest…
The primary objective is to test the hypothesis that a protein-rich nutritional supplement (containing 45 g of dietary protein) prior to surgery acutely increases skeletal muscle and bone protein synthesis rates in older patients undergoing a hip…

This study aims at (further) revealing the pathophysiology of intestinal IR in man, with a specific interest for the role of proteases and protease-activated receptor-2 (PAR-2), cellular and inflammatory changes, barrier function and intestinal…
To study the effect of a nerve block of the infrapatellar nerve with local infiltration with lidocaine or saline on chronic anterior knee pain after tibial nailing.Secondairy objectives:- to measure knee pain on a VAS for eight different activities…
To explore the inflammatory changes of a PCSK-9 inhibitor compared with placebo on postprandial lipemia and postprandial leukocyte activation, oxidative stress and endothelial function in men with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
We hypothesize that formerly pre-eclamptic women have persistently increased angiotensin II sensitivity, sodium sensitivity, insulin resistance and sympathetic nerve activity together initially leading to susceptibility for early renal disease and…
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,…
To investigate whether ingestion of 4 grams of butyrate daily during 4 weeks can positively affect the immune system function, residual betacell function and low grade inflammation in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.
to develop a *two hit* in vivo autologous RBCs transfusion model in healthy male volunteers.
In this study we aim to investigate whether infusion of intestinal microbiota from lean (vegetarian) donors has differential effect on choline (d6-labeled choline) and carnitine (d3-labeled carnitine) metabolism and macrovascular inflammation (18F-…
