This study primarily aims to explore changes in physical activity pattern and energy expenditure in head and neck cancer patients, during and after treatment with surgery with or without (chemo)radiation. The secondary aim of this study is to gain…
Hypotheses: - The nutrient sensing receptors have a different spatial distribution along the intestinal tract.- The receptors: T1R2/T1R3, SGLT-1, G-protein coupled receptor 120, T1R1/T1R3, Pept1, G-protein coupled receptor 93, calcium sensing…
To study the effect of early tumour development on brown adipose tissue activity
To study the effect of thyroid hormone and thyroid-stimulating hormone on brown adipose tissue activity.
We propose to perform a pilot study to examine the feasibility of studying the triangular association between: 1) amino acid metabolism (influenced by, amongst other factors, diet composition [e.g. energy intake, macronutrient intake, individual…
To determine if the microbiota inhabiting the small intestine in morbidly obese patients with T2DM is comparable to those without T2DM and, if not, what are the deviations and what is their impact
This study aims to assess the degree of accuracy of test weighing in order to determine whether or not test weighing is a useful method in clinical practice.
Testing the feasibility of adjustable gastric banding Roux- and Y gastric bypass in the Atrium Medical Center Parkstad
Primary:To investigate whether the high calorie challenge test and the predetermined biomarkers could define the healthy ranges of phenotypic flexibility (focusing on the five defined processes) and could indicate the movement towards a less healthy…
To validate the Nexfin cardiac output monitor for morbidly obese patients undergoing elective surgery with the PiCCO monitor.
Knowledge about the physiological metabolism of SCFAs and the interorgan exchange of SCFAs across different abdominal organs in humans is lacking to some extent.To this end, the following objective will be addressed in the current study: -Determine…
To observe the acute (at termination) and long-term (at 6 weeks after termination) effect of the Ramadan fast on body weight, glucose metabolism, lipid spectrum and body composition of obese adolescents.
To assess the degradability of five different protected pea protein products by human gastric fluid, and to assess the effects of different protected pea protein extracts on the intestinal satiety hormone release.
Primary aim of this study is to assess changes in body composition in patients with a carcinoma in the larynx, pharynx or oral cavity, in the period during and after treatment.Secundary aims of this study are:- to assess predictive factors for…
In this study we will be looking at the effects of the different administration routes on release of satiety hormones by the small intestine.
The aim o this study is to examine the cause(s) of large increases in weight after lung transplantation; the effect of daily physical activity, daily food intake and resting energy expenditure will be investigated in COPD and lung fibrosis lung…
To determine the reliability and feasibility of the Nanoduct sweat test system compared to the gold standard tests QPIT and Macroduct.
This study aims to describe the long-term results of a randomized trial comparing LAGB and VBG with regard to clinical results and quality of life.
The objective of the study is to determine what the clinical value is of measuring GE of liquids in 50 SMID children. The primary study parameter is how often DGE of liquids occurs in this study group. Secondary study parameters include…
