The neurological complications after hip surgery

In this study we want to monitor the neurological complications occurring during hip operations, consisting of hip arthroplasty ('head-neck' prothesis) for traumatic hip fractures. We want to establish that there is more understanding of…

Mapping serotonergic function using pharmacologic Magnetic Resonance Imaging (phMRI) in healthy subjects and users of ecstasy

- To assess the usefulness of 5-HT phMRI (BOLD-, PWI and ASL based phMRI) in assessing cerebral 5-HT neurotoxicity when compared to SERT SPECT.- To assess which MRI technique (BOLD-, PWI or ASL) is best in assessing cerebral 5-HT neurotoxicity when…

Mapping dopaminergic function using pharmacologic Magnetic Resonance Imaging (phMRI) in healthy subjects and users of amphetamine

OBJECTIVES: -to assess the usefulness of DA-phMRI (task related fMRI, steady state fMRI and ASL based phMRI) in assessing amphetamine induced DA-neurotoxicity when compared to DAT SPECT.-to assess which MRI technique (task related fMRI, steady state…

Effects of transcranial direct current stimulation
on cortical asymmetry and behaviour

To evaluate the effects of tDCS on modulating and stydying frontal brain asymmetry.

INTERACTIONS BETWEEN AUDITORY AND LIMBIC BRAIN AREAS IN TINNITUS

The current study employs functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate the auditory and limbic areas in tinnitus patients by means of innovative analysis methods that permit the assessment of functional interactions between brain…

A prospective explorative cross sectional clinical study to investigate the neurocognitive effects of human Immunodeficiency virus and the influence of highly active anti retroviral (HAART) therapy on CSF viral replication and biomarkers for neurodegeneration in HIV infected patients on chronic therapy with HAART

1 To investigate the influence of HAART on CSF viral load, development of HIV resistance, neurotransmitters and biomarkers for neurodegeneration2 To explore the neurocognitive effects of HIV infection and its treatment3 To investigate the…

The feasibility and energy expenditure of adults with stroke playing Wii-Sports

The aim of this study is to determine the feasibility and energy expenditure of adults with a stroke playing Wii-Sports.

The role of the left and right frontal hemisphere on mood and behaviour:
A transcranial direct current stimulation study

The aim of the present double blind cross-over sham controlled study is to study the functional role of the left and right frontal cortex on mood and behaviour in healthy volunteers by applying tDCS to the left and right frontal hemispheres.

Wii-balance therapy for patients after stroke

To determine whether Wii balance therapy is more effective than the conventional balance therapy for the standing and walking balance of patients with a stroke.

The influence of oral contraceptives on lamotrigine clearance in patients on lamotrigine in combination with valproic acid, carbamazepine or oxcarbazepine as compared to patients on lamotrigine only.

In a previous prospective study(4), we investigated in detail the effect of OCs on LTG clearance. However, LTG is frequently used in combination therapy. This raises the question as to what extent and how co-medication with other anti-epileptic…
