The primary objective is to assess bone structure parameters and bone strength by high resolution peripheral quantitative CT evaluation (HRpQCT) and physical activity in relation with subsequent falls, fractures and mortality in patients with a…
Primary objective: To investigate the effect of supplementation of a single intramuscular dose of 80 mg triamcinolone on the level of MPT-induced dynamic hyperinflation, in adult asthma patients with demonstrated dynamic hyperinflation. (Part 1)…
The main objective of this study is to assess whether ICD therapy in dialysis patients reduces sudden (arrhythmogenic) cardiac death. The first secondary end point is to compare total mortality death between the two groups. An other is to evaluate…
To explore the inflammatory changes of a PCSK-9 inhibitor compared with placebo on postprandial lipemia and postprandial leukocyte activation, oxidative stress and endothelial function in men with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
1. We want to study the success rate of OAHM withdrawal in patients with chronic migraine related to support by a headache nurse, and onabotulinum toxin A injections during the withdrawal period, and the influence of comorbid depression.2. We want…
The primary objective is to confirm the hypothesis that Maraviroc stimulates immune recovery; the ssecondary objective is to explore, by virologic and immunologic investigations, the underlying mechanisms of this hypothesis.
To assess clinical parameters and biomarkers in blood and urine in predicting bacteremia, need for hospital admission, clinical and bacteriologic cure and mortality in patients with fUTI.To determine whether a 7-day duration of antibiotic treatment…
We would like to evaluate the beneficial effects of fibrate treatment on muscle mitochondrial and cardiac function in patients with NLSDM.
What is the gingival healing effect of a rubber bristles interdental cleaner compared to an interdental brushes after an 3-week non-brushing period (experimental gingivitis) measured with the Bleeding on Marginal Probing (BOMP) index in a group of…
The proposed study aims to examine: I. whether MDD-patients with a high TRD-level have diminished reward/reinforcement learning, dysfunctional dopaminergic, glutamatergic and/or GABA-ergic neurotransmission (relative to no-TRD patients/controls) II…
What is the effect of the use of a maltitol sweetened chewing gum compared to a gum base and no gum in during a 28 days on the composition of the supragingival plaque microbiome in healthy non dental students *18 years old?
To suppress low-level viremia to a level below 50cp/mL in patients using cART by switching their current non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) or PI to DRV boosted with ritonavir (RTV) (DRV/r). Secondary objectives are to reduce the…
Primary objective: to compare changes in endothelial function in patients with obesity related hypertension after 8 weeks of treatment with aliskiren, moxonidine and HCTZ. Secondary objectives: to compare changes in the following parameters in…
The goals of the proposed study are: (1) to further elucidate the relations between impulse control, motivational strength of drug cues, and brain activation patterns (using fMRI); (2) to examine the relative strength by which these processes are…
Reduce previously learned positive associations with alcoholic drinks by administring propanolol after reactivation of the alcohol-related memory associations.
To compare the rapidity of onset and the extent of oxidative stress lowering of atorvastatin with that of an (in terms of LDL lowering) equipotent dosage of simvastatin.
To investigate the effects of exposure to low intensity monochromatic blue light compared to the effects of standard light trherapy in the treatment of SAD and winterblues
To study the possible beneficial effect of simvastatin on accumulation of triglycerides in the myocardium of patients with DM2 and the effect on vessel wall thickness using magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy
-To evaluate the effects of IVIg on the humoral and cellular immune system.-To identify biomarkers which are associated with the effect (on muscle strength and sensory modalities) of IVIg. To investigate the value of these biomarkers in other…
The objective of the study is two-fold:First, we want to improve the design of the study for future extension, by critical evaluation of the efficacy, the instruments used and the outcome measures. Second, we want to assess the cognitive and…
