The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of supplementation of a high oral dose of omega-3 fatty acids on hepatic steatosis and glucose metabolism in morbidly obese patients undergoing laparoscopic Roux-Y gastric bypass surgery (LRYGBP).
Controlling the glycemic impact of food products may reduce glycemic and insulinemic responses. This may result in a decreased inhibition of fat oxidation rate and lower plasma TAG concentration. A higher postprandial fat oxidation may result in…
The primary objective of the study is to determine the gain in effectiveness of TE compared with P when applied to remove excess iron during maintenance therapy of HH patients.
To reduce intraoperative blood loss and enhance tolerance of the FRL to I/R injury during right hemihepatectomy under vascular exclusion by means of in situ hypothermic perfusion with retrograde outflow (R-IHP) of the FRL.
The primary objective of the trial is to investigate if the optical tissue stylet technology can reliably discriminate intra-vascular (venous) from non-vascular punctures. Diffuse reflectance spectra will be acquired for these two situations, with…
The main objective of the study is to investigate whether of the biolimus eluting and biodegradable polymer NOBORI* stent is non-inferior or even superior to the everolimus eluting XIENCE-V/XIENCE-PRime/PROMUS* stent in daily practice.
To investigate if there is a correlation between the peak GH concentrations after ingestion of gelatin protein and the peak GH concentrations after the two standard tests (GHST) in order to discriminate between GHD and non-GHD. To investigate the…
The objective of the proposed project is to compare the effectivity of GEXP in vivo with that of standardized physiotherapy in CRPS-I patients with pain related fear.
To characterize the glycaemic and insulinaemic responses of regular camel milk and camel milk powder in healthy adults.
1. To investigate whether a single-blind, randomized controlled trial in patients with a TIA or minor stroke addressing secondary prevention, healthy life style and cognition is feasible and not too demanding for the patient.2. To investigate…
The main objective of the study is a head tot head comparison of the everolimus coated XIENCE-V* stent with the paclitaxel coated TAXUS* stent in order to observe whether there is a difference in clinical outcome between both stents. Efficacy of…
In this study we attempt to determine if there is any difference between cannulation of the RIJV using the blind landmark technique or the ultrasound technique performed by a trainee in anesthesia (in his/her second year of education) with…
Patients with Type 2 diabetes have been shown to have an increased risk for developing cancer, especially obesity related cancers. There is some evidence that within the class of sulfonylureas there is a difference in cancer risk; gliclazide could…
To investigate whether the clinical outcome is similar after the implantation of the Resolute Integrity stent versus the Promus Element stent (non-inferiority test).
We hypothesize that exogenous, enterally provided glutamine contributes substantially to the de novo synthesis of arginine in critically ill patients.
The two strategies (Venlafaxine and subsequent Lithium addition in non-responders to Venlafaxine; Imipramine and subsequent Lithium addition in non-responders to Imipramine) are comparable in efficacy and time to response.
Spinal anesthesia induces several alterations in normal brain processes. Firstly, loss of afferent information increases pain sensitivity. In our previous study on the effects of spinal anesthesia (P11.221) we showed that subjects felt more pain…
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of the implementation strategy on level of implementation of palliative care and the effects on patient, informal caregiver and professional outcomes. It is hypothesized that implementation of…
The primary goal of this research project is to evaluate the implementation of VR to PCIT. We expect to find that PCIT-VR will ameliorate positive parenting skills, leading to faster skill mastery. We believe that if the positive parenting skills…
