The proportion of successful patients, defined as an improvement in LARS category, will be 25% larger in the experimental group than in the control group (in which 10 % improvement is assumed).
To evaluate the effectiveness of eccentric calf muscle exercise therapy compared to strength training of the upper extremities (control group) in patients with chronic midportion Achilles tendinopathy.
The test product supports normal physical growth in healthy term infants
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 project aims to investigate peripheral and central neuroplasticity following an early (<13 weeks after injury) and intensive (8 weeks of 6 hours of additional therapy) upper extremity motor training program (EIUMT)…
Phase 2 pilot-study: to examine feasible exercise dosages in patients with mCRC and collect data on preliminary effects on clinical outcomes.Phase 3 trial: to collect data on the efficacy of exercise on 1) chemotherapy dose modifications and 2)…
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…
To evaluate the safety, feasibility and efficacy of an 8-week remotely supervised home-based maintenance exercise training program following pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with COPD.
To investigate the impact of different doses of handgrip exercises (moderate vs high intensity) and stimuli (exercise vs ischemia) on the ability to protect endothelial damage from ischemia-reperfusion injury in healthy humans. A secondary goal is…
The aim of the RADICES study is to investigate the effects of a 12-week exercise and nutrition intervention for patients with metastatic oesophageal or gastric cancer. The intervention will be completely tailored to the condition and nutritional…
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
Primary objectives1. To determine the effect of a tailored exercise program by using the widely implemented exercise app *Physitrack* on experienced pain and fatigue in patients with FSHD.2. To investigate the relationship between perceived pain…
Primary objective: determine whether HAPTOS intervention results in earlier attainment (postnatal days) of full enteral feeding and/or full oral feeding (postmenstrual age) compared to standard care. Secondary objectives: To determine whether…
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…
Primary: To investigate the effect of a 4-week VR-exergame intervention on handgrip strength in patients staying in the ICU for 48 hours or longer compared to standard rehabilitation practices.Secondary: To investigate the longer term effect of a 4…
