To obtain an estimate of the prevalence of chlamydia and gonorrhoea among men and women aged 18 to 34 years.
To compare acylated and unacylated ghrelin concentrations in pregnant women with GD and without GD.
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…
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.
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.…
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…
To investigate the impact of the multispecies probiotic product Ecologic*Barrier on neurocognitive measures of emotion and executive functioning.
1. To validate accelerometer cut-points to asses physical activity and sedentary behavior of breast cancer survivors. 2. To investigate the validity of accelerometers, inclinometers, heart rate and oxygen consumption to assess time spent in…
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…
Collection of skin tissue and blood samples from patients with mild to moderate psoriasis for efficacy testing of a reference compound, for subsequent testing of a new therapeutic in a humanized mouse model.
The aim of the project is to study the effect of "UCB1577571 en CA050_01953" on typical skin features of psoriasis. This information can establish the most effective compound, right formulation and dose for further clinical research.
The main objective is to investigate the preparatory process in left primary motor cortex in relation to hand choice during whole-body motion.

1. To investigate short- as well as long-term outcomes in patients who underwent CAWR in the Academic Medical Center and St Marks Hospital London between 2004 and 2015 with hernia recurrence as primary outcome. Secondary outcomes involve morbidity,…
To investigate the effects of anodal and cathodal tDCS on gambling compared to sham stimulation. Additionally, changes in EEG activity will be explored.
The project has three main scientific objectives: (1) To investigate how speech processing with CIs affects listeners* mental representations at lexical and sub-lexical levels, as well as the flow of information between these levels; (2) To study…
In a series of randomized control trials (RCTs) the following hypothesis will be tested: Intranasal administration of oxytocin and vasopressin affect neural and behavioral responses to infant signals and threat to the infant.* Oxytocin and…
The primary objective of the proposed study is to examine the neural substrate of cognitive and social-emotional apathy in patients with schizophrenia. Secondary, we intend to explore the concentration of brain metabolites and structural differences…
