Our primary objective is to investigate whether oxytocin administration can affect empathy and emotion recognition in healthy and antisocial adolescents. We expect that oxytocin will enhance empathy and emotion recognition in both healthy and…
To investigate the impact of the multispecies probiotic product Ecologic*Barrier on neurocognitive measures of emotion and executive functioning.
Investigating the neural mechanisms underlying the anticipation of food reward induced by visual cues related to different foodcharacteristics in healthy males would provide 1) brain activity patterns that can be associated with the anticipation of…
To investigate the effects of anodal and cathodal tDCS on gambling compared to sham stimulation. Additionally, changes in EEG activity will be explored.
In a series of randomized control trials (RCTs) the following hypothesis will be tested: Intranasal administration of oxytocin and vasopressin affect neural and behavioral responses to infant signals and threat to the infant.* Oxytocin and…
The proposed experimental pilot study focuses on harm reduction in a specific subpopulation, i.e. in patients with schizophrenia (long-term psychotic disorder) with a suboptimal response to the currently available interventions, smoking a lot of…
The effects of intravenous TRH administration on brown adipose tissue activity in healthy, lean men.
To investigate whether BAT tissue can be activated by intravenous administration of TRH. Secondary objectives are to determine whether intravenous TRH increases the degree of cardiovascular sympathetic stimulation and the response of skin…
The present study has 1 primary and 1 secondary objective:1: The primary objective of the present study is to analyse the effects of supplementation with ITFs of different chain lengths and RSC on hepatitis B vaccination efficacy. The main parameter…
With the proposed study we aim to gain insight into the effects of oxytocin (OT) on both parents* and grandparents* sensitive, empathic, and protective responses to their (grand)children, and in the neural origins of these responses.The primary…
To compare postprandial plasma amino acid concentrations over time after ingestion of a fixed amount of protein from different dairy products in healthy adults.
To test if acute NK boosts muscle mitochondrial function in vivo in patients with VLCADD in order to establish a rational basis for therapeutic use in this disorder. A secondary objective is to gather data to test the working hypothesis that the…
To investigate the effects of in-phase and anti-phase bilateral frontal theta tACS (5 Hz) on gambling behaviour and endogenous frontal theta activity.
To assess the clinical and cost effectiveness of the anterior approach, compared to the conventional posterolateral approach for THA in terms of physical functioning and health-related quality of life
The current study investigates whether the ASPI-score is sensitive to context in which the ASPI is administered. Because the ASPI was designed to measure the capacity to experience sexual pleasure, it is expected that the ASPI score will not vary…
The primary objectives are (1) to investigate the feasibility of online courses targeting nutrition and food-related behaviour and (2) to investigate whether the feasibility of the online courses is related to depressive symptoms. The secondary…
The main objective of this study is to investigate the effect of cerebellar tDCS on impulsivity in healthy adults.
- To assess whether the implementation of a deep neuromuscular block (NMB) (PTC 1-2) combined creates optimal surgical conditions as measured by the surgeon (using the 5-point Leiden surgical rating scale) versus a moderate neuromuscular block (TOF…
To investigate acute effects of a single 40 mg dose hydrocortisone, compared with placebo, on stress and various aspects of attention and other cognitive processing of emotionally relevant stimuli in healthy anxious young females. The main question…
Primary aim: To determine the effects of oro-sensory exposure stimulation through mastication duration and sweetness intensity on the endocrine and metabolic cephalic phase responses.Secundary aim: To determine whether the magnitude of cephalic…
To investigate the direct role of local beta oscillatory activity in the frontal cortex during a reversal learning paradigm.
