To investigate the feasibility of increasing preoperative dietary fiber intake in CRC patients undergoing surgery via 1) personalized dietary advice (Vezel-UP tool), or 2) vegetable product containing natural fibers (WholeFiber) compared to 3)…
The main objective of the current study is to assess the impact of dietary collagen supplementation on human tendon protein synthesis.
This intervention study investigates the effectiveness, costs and cost-effectiveness of a protein-enriched diet and resistance exercise training for 3 months on bone and muscle health, and quality of life in older adults recovering from an acute…
The main aim of the current study will be to determine the metabolic fate of dietary protein. More specifically, the main aim is to assess the incorporation of protein-derived amino acids in a wide variety of organ tissues in vivo in humans.
To assess the impact of short-term forearm immobilization on forearm muscle glucose uptake and amino acid net balance and kinetics of individuals with T2D compared with a control group with normoglycaemia.
To compare the effect of a 6-month of enriched care consisting of additional protein intake and regular resistance exercise on the prevalence of disproportional fat-free mass loss (defined as a FFML/WL>30% as main outcome parameter) in…
To assess muscle protein synthesis rates to continuous, elevated plasma amino acid availability in healthy young males
In the present pilot study, we intend to test phenotypic flexibility (Phenflex) in 20 clinically stable patients with COPD by exploring their response to a dietary challenge test before and after pulmonary rehabilitation. Moreover, the…
The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of a microalgae (Hematoccocus pluvialis) on the stress response and mental wellbeing in jong adults.
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effect of 26 weeks of supplementation with three different dietary fibres (chicory inulin, resistant dextrin, and seaweed polysaccharide) compared to a placebo (maltodextrin) on microbiota…
Primary: To assess the effects of a 2-week preoperative vegan diet in comparison to an omnivorous diet on protein synthesis rates in Hoffa*s fat pad, synovium, bone, ligaments, menisci, and cartilage in older adults with knee osteoarthritis…
The main objective is to investigate the effect of oral tributyrin on plasma endotoxin in patients with acute pancreatitis.
The main objective is to study the effect of the nutritional intervention versus the control product on white matter development (as assessed using tract based spatial statistics of fractional anisotropy) using a DTI scan at the corrected age of…
The primary objective is to compare the effects of daily beta-alanine supplementation or a placebo supplement on exercise tolerance (cycle endurance time). The secondary objectives are:1) To compare the effects of daily oral beta…
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effect of dried chicory root (WholeFiber) during 6 weeks on fecal SCFA levels in intermediate to high-risk melanoma patients after surgical treatment with no concurrent adjuvant treatment.…
Main objective: Develop a protocol to reproducibly infect mosquitoes with blood from human study participants undergoing asexual blood stage CHMI with the P. vivax clone PvW1.Secondary objectives: Maximize mosquito infection rate with PvW1 by I)…
The primary objective is to estimate functional immune response in isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs; ratio of pro-inflammatory; i.e. PGE2, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, IFN*, TNFα, CCL2 and CCL5, and anti-inflammatory markers; i.e., IL-4 and…
The present study compares the postprandial amino acid uptake kinetics between a commercially available (fermented) yoghurt versus a commercially (full fat pasteurized) milk matched for protein and volume.
This project aims to improve physical performance in older patients, by offering a personalized combined nutritional intervention with a physical activity training program. The intervention starts at hospita! admittance, and is continued after…
