1. comparison between pre- and postoperative serum levels incretines and bile acids (after RYGB).2. comparison between S-RYGB and LBPL-RYGB with respect to incretines and bile acids.
Controlling the glycemic impact of food products may reduce glycemic and insulinemic responses. This may result in a decreased inhibition of fat oxidation rate and lower plasma TAG concentration. A higher postprandial fat oxidation may result in…
The primary objective of the study is to determine the gain in effectiveness of TE compared with P when applied to remove excess iron during maintenance therapy of HH patients.
The primary objective of the trial is to investigate if the optical tissue stylet technology can reliably discriminate intra-vascular (venous) from non-vascular punctures. Diffuse reflectance spectra will be acquired for these two situations, with…
The main objective of the study is to investigate whether of the biolimus eluting and biodegradable polymer NOBORI* stent is non-inferior or even superior to the everolimus eluting XIENCE-V/XIENCE-PRime/PROMUS* stent in daily practice.
To investigate if there is a correlation between the peak GH concentrations after ingestion of gelatin protein and the peak GH concentrations after the two standard tests (GHST) in order to discriminate between GHD and non-GHD. To investigate the…
1. To investigate whether a single-blind, randomized controlled trial in patients with a TIA or minor stroke addressing secondary prevention, healthy life style and cognition is feasible and not too demanding for the patient.2. To investigate…
The main objective of the study is a head tot head comparison of the everolimus coated XIENCE-V* stent with the paclitaxel coated TAXUS* stent in order to observe whether there is a difference in clinical outcome between both stents. Efficacy of…
· Explore the relative impacts of iodine concentration versus iodine delivery rate on intra-coronary attenuation. · Describe the effect of iodine concentration on contrast bolus characteristics e.g. bolus homogeneity, time-to-peak, and pressure…
The aim of the substudy is the identification of early (baseline) predictors of heart failure during a relatively high frequency of electrical stiumulation of the right ventricle. How does heart function change over a period of 2 years which…
The main objective is to examine whether different negative emotions have different behavioral and physiological effects on opponents in bargaining and whether these behavioral or physiological effects influence each other. We focus on anger and…
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of repeated exposure to vegetables compared to repeated exposure to fruit during weaning on short and long term vegetable and fruit intake. Furthermore, the stability of the learned fruit or…
To investigate the difference between side and end-firing in transrectal prostate needle biopsies in terms of qualitative and quantitative prostate cancer detection.
The primary objective is to show that energy expenditure of the body, during moderate physical activity on a bike ergometer, can become higher in response to high altitude simulation. The secondary objetive is to show that an increase in energy…
This research has the goal to determine which treatment is the most effective treatment in terms of prevention of treatment failure, in costs and has the patients preference when comparing PDT, Imiquimod and 5FU.
The primary objective is the assessment and comparison of the in vivo kinematic patterns of the knee designs by means of fluoroscopy and EMG. The secondary objective is to evaluate if the polyethylene bearing in the mobile bearing is rotating and if…
The aim of the present study is to test whether there is a causal relationship between expectancies regarding the effect of eating on mood, changes in mood and actual caloric intake. In order to test whether there is a causal relationship between…
Primary Objective: To determine whether a tobacco product (cigarettes and roll-your-own tobacco) imparts a characterising flavour/odour.Secondary Objective: Do the characterising flavours/odours of the tobacco products as determined through panel…
To evaluate different cryoenergy application times using absence of DC as a surrogate for permanent PV isolation to establish optimal duration for formation of contiguous lesions and prevention of right PNP and esophageal thermal lesions during…
Primary Objective: The aim of this study is to determine a cut-off score at the PQ-16 with the CAARMS for better detection of adolescents 12-18 years at risk. Secondary Objective(s): To study the course of UHR in adolescents 12-18 years over a one…
