To explore the inflammatory changes of a PCSK-9 inhibitor compared with placebo on postprandial lipemia and postprandial leukocyte activation, oxidative stress and endothelial function in men with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
In this study we aim to investigate whether infusion of intestinal microbiota from lean (vegetarian) donors has differential effect on choline (d6-labeled choline) and carnitine (d3-labeled carnitine) metabolism and macrovascular inflammation (18F-…
To investigate whether increased aldosterone levels in obese individuals lead to impairment of microvascular function through reduction of NO-availability, and to establish the role of microvasculaire dysfunction in the pathogenesis of salt-…
To investigate the effect of tourniquet application on the coagulation system in patients undergoing a knee arthroscopy. A finding of more prominent activation of the coagulation system with tourniquet use than with non-use will create an important…
1. to study the effect of spironolacton and triamterene on blood pressure in anuric hemodialysis patients.2. to study the effect of treatment on body weight, serum elektrolytes, 24-hours sodium excretion, plasma aldosterone and renin concentrations…
The main objective is to investigate whether and at what dose vitamin K2 increases carboxylation of MGP. Secondary objective is to investigate the effect of vitamin K2 on markers of CVD (osteocalcin, blood lipids, inflammatory factors and insulin…
1 : Will the intake of a liquid meal lead to insulin-induced microvascular dilatation in healthy subjects? 2: Does meal composition (high fat meal vs. high carb meal) play a role in the occurence of insulin-induced microvascular dilatation in…
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of different doses of vitamin D on postprandial leukocyte activation markers, oxidative stress and arterial stiffness in vitamin D deficient females.
Primary objective: to compare changes in endothelial function in patients with obesity related hypertension after 8 weeks of treatment with aliskiren, moxonidine and HCTZ. Secondary objectives: to compare changes in the following parameters in…
This pilot is meaned to obtain:- experience and understanding in the presence of new embolic load in the brain by means of DW-MRI- Understanding in the number of patients in which probably the post-operative DW-MRI can not be done according to…
Main study:1. Does blockade of the angiotensin II AT1-receptor improve the insulin-induced microvascular effects in hypertensive patients.2. Does blockade of the angiotensin II AT1-receptor impair the insulin-induced mi-crovascular effects in…
The primary objective of the study is to determine concentration of circulation cytokines na administration of LPS in the presence of iron sucrose (Venofer®), Deferasirox (Exjade®) of placebo.
To compare the rapidity of onset and the extent of oxidative stress lowering of atorvastatin with that of an (in terms of LDL lowering) equipotent dosage of simvastatin.
Assess whether APL180 can improve endothelial function in patients with Familial hypercholesterolemia
To study the possible beneficial effect of simvastatin on accumulation of triglycerides in the myocardium of patients with DM2 and the effect on vessel wall thickness using magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy
The objective of this project is to study the effects of low levels of dietary AGEs in overweight subjects on insulin sensitivity, *-cell function, micro- and macrovascular function, and gut microbiota. The obtained insights can be used to attenuate…
To study the impact of AKCEA-APOCIII-LRx on lipid and inflammatory measurements in the fasting and postprandial phase.
