Investigating the neural mechanisms underlying the anticipation of food reward induced by visual cues related to different foodcharacteristics in healthy males would provide 1) brain activity patterns that can be associated with the anticipation of…
To investigate whether three hours of consecutive daylight and activity can affect alertness and improve night-time objective and subjective sleep.
To test whether a short FD protocol can be used to test whether effects of light on alertness, sleep, metabolism and temperature are under circadian control.
The primary objective of this study is to detect statistically significant differences between the most severely affected PD subtype and controls on 3T imaging parameters.
To determine whether a difference in resilience of inflammatory tone between healthy and prediabetic males can be identified with whole blood ex vivo LPS stimulation.
The search for correlations between components of the diet and the group has experienced a hip fracture. These findings are compared with healthy elderly. The results can contribute to nutrition -focused interventions in future studies .
The aim of the proposed study is to investigate the presence of dopaminergic abnormalities in relation to apathy in persons with a high risk for psychosis. Second, we intend to explore the relation between the dopamine system and apathy in general,…
To elucidate in the same participants (late chronotypes with at least two hours of social jetlag) the changes in sleep timing, social jetlag and endogenous circadian phase of melatonin with more than two hours of social jetlag shielded from blue…
To study potential abnormal functioning of the bile salt-FXR-FGF19 axis in patients with clinically quiescent Crohn*s colitis.
The aim of the proposed research is to test, by the use of functional magnetic resonance imaging, the hypothesis that psychometric schizotypy (referring to, e.g., subclinical hallucinations in healthy people) is associated with reduced activation of…
GoalThis research project aims to we examine possible reduced processing capacity in people with aphasia. We will investigate whether complexity of word forms, as calculated by information theoretical measures, can provide an explanation for the…
This proposal centers on hormone-behavior dynamics in paternal caregiving, with the goal of gaining a better understanding of the development of human paternal caregiving. There is limited information on the hormonal basis of caregiving patterns in…
The current study evaluates the OrthoSensor and investigates whether the combination of the Vanguard® Knee System with the OrthoSensor results in a faster recovery and better clinical outcomes during short follow up compared to conventional TKA (…
To study the influence of systemic blood flow and mean arterial pressure on cerebral blood flow in patients undergoing on-pump cardiac surgery.
Evaluate the effect of menarche and menstrual cycle on the QTc interval among girls with genetically-confirmed mutations causing LQTS type 1 (LQT1) and type 2 (LQT2).
The objective of this observational study is the safe introduction of clinical applied IVM in The Netherlands. During this study, the number and quality of the oocytes and embryos will be studied as well as pregnancy development. Emphasis will be on…
To answer the question if structural changes of the brain and impairments of cognitive functioning in type 1 diabetes are related to the presence of microvascular disease we will· Compare brain structure (brain volume, white matter lesions) and…
The primary objectives of this study are: 1) to determine brain areas that are differentially involved in the processing of emotional words in the three groups: ASD, psychopathy and a matched group of healthy controls; 2) to determine whether…
First, we investigate the attention-bias for pain signals that chronic pain patients (CPP) are suggested to have. Second, we investigate whether the chronicity of pain is related to faster learning and slower *unlearning* of new associations between…
The main goal of this study is to investigate the influence of STN DBS on the cognitive processes of reward processing and selective visual attention.
