to investigate the analgesic effect of high frequency 10 Hz rTMS on experimental pain measured through quantitative sensory testing (QST) in healthy subjects.
To assess the association between baseline blood pressure and change in neurocognitive functioning after four years, and to assess whether baseline MRI phenotypes are predictive for changes in neurocognitive functioning after four years in the DANTE…
To identify pathogenic bacterial biofilms in UC-patients with and without neoplasia in tandem with host factors such as barrier defects and carcinogenic pathway activation in a prospective cohort study.
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…
The aim of the study is to expand an existing infrastructure for scientific research, i.e. a longitudinal observational study, for investigating physical, emotional, cognitive and social trajectories of functioning, their determinants and their…
Collection of blood and urine samples for estimation of the metabolomic and proteomic intra- and inter-subject variation for an extensive set of biomarkers in healthy male volunteers.
1. To characterize long-term neurologic- and cognitive disorders, audiological and ophthalmological alterations in cCMV-infected children.2. To identify immunological, neurological host factors and virological factors that are predictive of…
The primary objective is to assess neuropsychological function in X-ALD patients without active cerebral demyelinating disease. Data of minors will be compared to matched healthy controls. Data of adults will be compared to reference values. The…
The current study aims to develop a novel approach to assess VO2max without any breathing restriction at the mouth by measuring maximal oxygen uptake in a respiration chamber.
The proposed study will further examine the effects of pregnancy on the human brain, by investigating structural and functional connectivity, local metabolite concentrations and neural activity related to social cognitive and memory processes.…
Primary Objective:First we need to establish that patients with an eating disorder and healthy controls differ in mental imagery. So, the first aim of our research is to compare the nature and characteristics (emotionality, vividness and perspective…
Investigating and comparing two disorders (i.e., OCD and GD) with phenomenological different types of compulsive behaviors central to their pathology can elucidate common mechanisms of compulsivity in psychiatry - core features- as well as specific…
