In this prospective study we aim to find out whether an early refeeding strategy in addition to standard care can improve maternal and neonatal outcome and reduce hospital stay.
To study the effect of individualized nutritional counselling compared to usual nutritional care on cross-sectional muscle area in patients with stage IV colorectal cancer during first-line chemotherapy. Secondary, effect on total lean body mass,…
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the relationship between diet composition, meal timing, and meal frequency with cognitive performance in nurses during a night shift setting.Secondary objectives of this study are 1) to…
The current study aims to investigate the effect of a) caloric restriction (very low calorie diet (VLCD)); b) caloric restriction with mechanical restriction and physiological changes through malapsorption (Roux- en- Y bypass (RYGB) surgery); and c…
To describe the wound related complication rate in post-bariatric body contouring surgery patients who are treated according to a new guideline and assess the factors associated with a higher complication rate.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the accuracy of energy expenditure and resting heart rate measurement.Secondary objectives include assessment of accuracy of other measures like sleep duration, steps counting, activity recognition…
We will investigate the effect of the combination of moderate physical activity and a standard meal on the onset of low grade intestinal ischemia. Will will use the serological biomarker I-FABP to determine the occurrence of low grade intestinal…
To investigate the impact of (a disrupted) circadian rhythm on food preferences and chemosensory perception.
To explore the ability of encapsulation of orally applied lipids in a yoghurt snack to modify ad libitum food intake and satiety, without GI symptoms.
To determine the effect of gastric bypass surgery on (alterations in) food preferences. Secondly, to assess the effect of gastric bypass surgery on the brain reward response when exposed to sight and smell of food stimuli with different sugar and…
In this study, we will test which of two feeding strategies for adults during chemotherapy-induced mucositis is optimal with regards to maintaining an optimal body weight, nutritional status, gut mucosal barrier and treatment outcome (including…
To determine whether pulmonary rehabilitation prior to bariatric surgery leads to improved and sustained asthma control (ACQ) as compared to bariatric surgery alone in patients with morbid obesity and not optimally controlled asthma.Secondary aims…
Our primary objective is to compare pre-treatment with the standard low calorie diet with pre-treatment with supplemental omega-3 fatty acids on liver volume. Secondary objectives are patient satisfaction about different dietary pre-treatments, the…
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.
This study will form the basis for future studies that are planned to investigate chemosensory disturbances in elderly and testicular cancer patients who are undergoing cisplatin based chemotherapy within the University Medical Center Groningen.…
This study will be performed to evaluate the safety of the ACE stapler for the treatment of obesity. The secondary objective is to evaluate effectiveness of the ACE stapler for the treatment of obesity.
To demonstrate differences in neuronal structure and neuronal function in brain regions that control eating behaviour between obese and normal weight adolescents.
To investigate responses of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) and facial expressions to sensory-specific satiety.
The proposed randomized controlled lifestyle intervention studies the effects of an exercise and nutrition intervention in the first year after transplantation on: 1. Exercise capacity, muscle strength, diet, quality of life and social participation…
We propose that there will be a link between taste sensitivity and overall metabolic function. We hypothesize that non-tasters, medium-tasters and super-tasters will have different levels of metabolic hormones in their general circulation. Our study…
