In this study, we want to investigate whether obese children perform differently than normal weight children (data already generated) on tasks of sensitivity to reward and executive functioning.
1. To evaluate and compare the impact of hysteroscopic Essure® intratubal device placement and laparoscopic salpingectomy on IVF-ET outcomes of patients with hydrosalpinx.2. It is still uncertain whether laparoscopic salpingectomy for hydrosalpinx…
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of an activity stimulation program on performance of mobility and lifestyle in children with cerebral palsy, in comparison with regular paediatric physiotherapy.
The overall aim of the present work is to evaluate the individual role of androgens and estrogens on brain function in the human with a focus on cognition. Both clinical models give us the opportunity to evaluate cognitive functions and brain…
The focus of this study is to get more insight in the pathophysiology of IUGR. The main goal is to investigate the applicability of STIC in determining fetal cardiac function in IUGR.
To evaluate and compare progression free survival (PSA) between the two treatment arms.
The main objective of this study is to increase current insights into the role of auditory and cognitive factors in the reduced ability to understand speech in noisy environment, particularly for hearing impaired people. These insights will help to…
1. Does mPAT directly impair vasoreactivity to insulin and acetylcholine ex vivo in arterioles obtained from muscle biopsy in lean and obese individuals?2. Is obesity in humans associated with the accumulation of mPAT and an inflammatory mPAT…
Do trauma cues trigger more craving in individuals with substance dependency and PTSD in comparison with substance dependent individuals without PTSD? If so, is this effect trauma-specific or are SUD-patients with PTSD more sensitive to general…
We will investigate the feasibility of using STIC technology to evaluate the normal fetal cardiac anatomy and morphology in different stages of gestation. Further we aim at making normograms of different intracardiac parameters in relation to…
The key objectives of this study are:1. To determine by means of IENFD whether the PNS is involved in patients with autonomic complaints in MS. The obtained IENFD values will be compared with the age and gender matched healthy normative data,…
1. To evaluate the clinical usefulness of STIC with post-process rendering capability. Our goal is to investigate whether STIC gives more accurate information about a suspected cardiac anomaly, compared to conventional 2D ultracardiography.2. To…
The main goal of the proposed experiment is to provide evidence for the hypothesis that the adaptation range of posture control behaviour with only proprioceptive feedback is similar to the adaptation range with visual and tactile feedback also…
Assessment of the effect of kidney-pancreas transplantation in diabetic nephropathy patients on microvascular alterations using orthogonal spectral polarization and correlate this effect with markers for endothelial cell dysfunction and fibrosis
We here propose a pilot immuno-PET study in active relapsing MS patients to investigate safety and sensitivity of 89Zr-rituximab in detecting CD20 positive (active) MS lesions and to assess inter-patient variability in 89Zr-rituximab biodistribition…
The present study aims to investigate several cognitive and emotional factors associated with chronicity of alcohol dependence.
The main objective is to determine whether the post-operative application of elastic stockings after varicose vein surgery is useful to reduce post-operative pain. Secondly we want to determine whether there is a difference in physical functioning…
To assess whether supplemention of vitamin D3 (1200 IU/day) in vitamin-D deficient non-western immigrants at risk for type 2 diabetes mellitus can improve the insulin resistance and betacell function as well.
To investigate whether propriocepsis or reflexes are present after nerve reconstruction
This study will evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the use of the gastric ring in preventing weight increase after 2 years
