The objective of the study is to obtain information on the bioavailability and pharmacokinetics of the phenolics present in an olive leaf extract (Bonolive®, dose 250 mg), standardized on 40% oleuropein, and to identify the composition of the…
1) to investigate cognitive functioning in lacunar infarct patients with and without periventricular white matter lesions; 2) to identify predictors for cognitive dysfunction in lacunar infarct patients.
The aim of this study is to elucidate the effects of RT on the oral microcirculation in patients with malignant disease in the head and neck region. We want to test the hypothesis that radiation therapy triggers microcirculatory derangements which…
The goal of this research project is to find out to what extent people with aphasia suffer from reduced processing capacity. We will use new insights from healthy language processing providing quantitative measures of "complexity" to…
To assess structural changes in the radial artery wall 3 hours and 30 days after catheterization with a 6 F sheath for diagnostic or interventional coronary procedures and elucidate arterial healing patterns that might explain early radial artery…
To further investigate the application in a clinical setting we aim to set up a model in which we can investigate the protective effects in an in vitro model, where subjects blood serum is used to transfer the protective effect of RIPC onto cells…
This quantitative research project was preceded by a qualitative study (Sexuality in people with a limb amputation and their partner: a qualitative study; METc 2010/179). The aims of the current study are to explore:- which sexual problems occur in…
