Primary Objective: • To investigate whether or not persistent complaints and poor outcome after mTBI be explained by an interaction between physiological and psychological factors. In other words, the aim is to investigate whether a more optimal…
Identification of genetic risk factors for development of type 2 diabetes, diabetes related diseases and complications. Furthermore the examination of the relationship between genetic variation, biochemical factors, environmental factors (obesity…
This study is focused on determination of risk factors associated with preeclampsia and intrauterine growth restriction, both develop in early pregnancy. These pregnancy complications are associated with cardiovascular diseases in later life. We…

The main aim of this study is to assess the prevalence of allergic and non-allergic health problems in veterinary students in different phases of the veterinary education. On later stage, genetic predisposition for allergies will be studied. In the…
The goal of this study is examining the acute effects of insulin on microcirculation in hypertensive insulinresistant subjects and investigate if angiotensine II influences these effects. Amendement: The goal of the amendement is to exame the…
To examine the effect of surgical trauma on mucosal perfusion, intestinal epithelial damage, the inflammatory response and potentially sepsis, following surgery remote to the abdomen in adults, children and neonates,
The primary objective of this study is to define differences in the inflammatory response, coagulation, and fibrinolysis in CABG patients with either MECC or conventional CPB.
To enumerate and characterize CTC in patients with solid malignancies before and, if applicable, after initiation of systemic treatment in order to improve the insight in the pathogenesis of metastases, and in mechanisms conferring resistance…
The purpose of this study is to further unravel the genetic origin of these individual diseases and their relation at genes level.
The aim of this research is explaining the difference between worrying and rumination in adolescents. The following research question is investigated: On which dimensions can rumination and worrying be distinguished?For answering this question, a…
The main aim of this follow-up study is to assess the incidence of respiratory disorders, like allergy, asthma and asthma like-syndrome, in association with the interaction of environmental and genetic risk factors in veterinary students. In order…
1. to investigate whether the known chronic inflammatory and hyperoxidative state in patients with severely increased LDL is associated with dysfunctional HDL.2. to investigate whether CVD in FH is associated with dysfunctional HDL.
In this experiment we test two hypotheses regarding brain systems involved in alexithymia: (1) reduced activation of prefrontal areas during verbal processing of facial emotional expressions in working memory, and (2) compromised recruitment of…
to determine the correlation of fetal hyperinsulinemia (measured by urine c-peptide) and maternal indicators of glucose-regulation with neonatal birth weight and postpartum glucose concentration of macrosomic infants of non-diabetic mothers
The aim of this study is to investigate the differences and similarities in AVH in healthy subjects and in patients with different psychiatric disorders. In addition, the underlying biological mechanisms of AVH will be studied in detail:1)…
Central research questions in this study are:1) To what extent are elementary school children exposed to traumatic events?2) What type events did these children experience (e.g. accidents, acts of violence, severe disease, death of a loved one)? 3)…
The main objective of this study is to find an answer to the question: " What is the role of self-discrepancies in patients with chronic low back pain and more specifically, in their activity level?" The answer to this question offers more…
The central goal therefore, is to identify mechanisms contributing to an improved mitochondrial fat oxidative capacity after physical activity and consequently identify the mechanisms which are responsible for the development of clinically overt…
Aim of this study is to identify how pregnancy complications can be predicted from the interplay between psychological, social and somatic risk factors. We hypothesize that the personality trait neuroticism predisposes to complications of pregnancy…
