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…
Primary Objective: The treatment result expressed as the proportion of successful treatments per treatment arm (successful = VUR <= grade 1 and/or no urinary-tract infections 6 months after the operation) does at least not show a significant…
1. comparison between pre- and postoperative serum levels incretines and bile acids (after RYGB).2. comparison between S-RYGB and LBPL-RYGB with respect to incretines and bile acids.
To gain further insight into the interaction and possibly shared pathophysiological mechanisms of female-specific cardiovascular risk factors and events we will quantify white matter hyperintensities on brain MRI and assess endothelial function in…
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…
Primary: To determine the effects of MIH on circulatory, inflammatory and metabolic aspects of host response to sepsis.Secondary: To determine if MIH prevents and/or decreases the severity of ICU-AW in septic shock.
To determine the effect of a structured diagnostic-therapeutic strategy to detect and treat previously unrecognized or unestablished heart failure in primary care as compared to care as usual.
Primary objectives:To establish the lowest effective dose using physiological and subjective measures of sexual arousal.To evaluate and compare the pharmacokinetics of testosterone and its metabolites following administration of three (3) doses (0.…
The objective of this study is to assess whether oral exposure to beer and non-alcoholic beer elicits similar reward responses in the brain in a setting where only beer is expected. This knowledge will give fundamental insight in whether alcohol is…
Primary Objective• To validate the existing demarcation formula (consisting of psychometric and biological markers) which predicts the sensitivity to Lybrido or Lybridos in women with female sexual interest/arousal disorder (FSIAD with or without…
Primary Objective: To compare the standard IM rod with the flexible IM rod in terms of post-operative sagittal contour of the distal femur. Secondary Objective(s):To compare the standard IM rod with the flexible IM rod in terms of post-operative…
This study will form the basis for future studies that are planned to investigate chemosensory disturbances in elderly and testicular cancer patients who are undergoing cisplatin based chemotherapy within the University Medical Center Groningen.…
The objective of this study is to evaluate the additional value of novel anemia markers (RET-HE, RPI, sTfR, sTfR/log(ferritin), transferrin/log(ferritin)) in a prospective, randomized study design. Our hypothesis is that the novel anemia markers can…
Investigating the neural mechanisms underlying the intensity and pleasantness coding of flavours in healthy volunteers would provide 1) dissociation of the brain activity patterns related to flavour intensity and pleasantness and 2) insight into how…
The aim is to study the long-term functional and radiological results (i.e. cuff integrity) of arcromioplasty in patients with SIS after a 8-13 year follow-up period.
The primary objective of this study is to investigate whether serum taken from volunteers subjected to 30 minutes of helium inhalation can protect different cell types against hypoxia-reperfusion induced damage and to investigate the role of…
Primary Objectives:This study consist of:1) a prospective cohort study in which all patients with esophageal cancer, selected for esophagectomy, and willing to be included in this cohort, are followed to assess their complications, short en long…
The main objective of the study is to gain a deeper understanding of the functioning of the human brain regarding the temporal evolution of the brain activity associated with taste, specifically about taste acceptance. In order to do so, we will…
The aim of this study is to determine the immediate effects of oral alcohol consumption in healthy volunteers on gut wall integrity as measured by Intestinal Fatty Acid Binding Protein (I-FABP) and Lipopolysaccharide Binding Protein (LBP) These…
This study is to answer two questions. First the acceptability and ease of use of the modified version of he Delphi Screener in general and in different body positions. Second the confirmation of a sufficient yield of cervicovaginal cells by self…
