1. To determine the rate of splanchnic utilization of glutamine, proposed to be conditionally essential for premature infants.2. To quantify the rate of splanchnic oxidation of dietary glutamine, which is supposed to be one of the major fuel…
- Measuring attentional effects central processing of somatosensory and noxious, brief electric, stimuli.
To compare the development of sensory specific satiety for sweetness after consumption of energy containing and low energy soft drinks. Moreover, we investigate whether SSS depends on the method of administration / oral processing, which influences…
In the present Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) RHI experiment will be sought for the hypothesis that multiple body representations exist underlying different goals. More specifically, we theorize that these body representations have somewhat…
1. To adjust and validate our forearm model for ischemia reperfusion injury, in order to used it for assessment of ischemic postconditioning.To adjust our forearm model for ischemia reperfusion injury, in order to used it for assessment of ischemia…
Collection of baseline features, by in vivo confocal microscopy, of the normal cornea with respect to corneal reflectivity and pachymetry.
The aim of this study is to gain insight into the perspectives of adolescents with diabetes type 1 on how support from friends can be helpful in selfmanagement of diabetes. This can serve as a basis for the development of structural interventions to…
The objective of this project is to find out if TPMT genotyping prior to thiopurine use is cost-effective in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in need of immune suppression.
HypothesisSexual function in female systemic sclerosis patients is impaired as a result of fibrosis of the genital tract, fatigue, chronic pain, Raynaud*s phenomenon and contractures. AimThe aim of the study is to investigate sexual function and its…
The main objective is to study the neural background of episodic bindings and pro active control with an event-related fMRI experiment.
To obtain a calibration measure for driving in the DASS driving simulator and secondly to obtain a calibration measure for measuring ERPs during driving in the DASS driving simulator. Therefore, simulated driving and attentional processes during…
Aim of this study is to investigate the level of functioning and the quality of life of children and young adults, six to eight years after major trauma.
To quantify splanchnic and whole body aspartate metabolism in premature neonates.
To obtain comprehension in the development of quality of life during and after clinical rehabilitation and the factors that influence it. This leads to the following questions:Primary questions(1) What is the progress of mental health and well-being…
The basic question of this project is to what extent the (long term) functional behavior of critical paretic lower leg muscles during standing and walking can be understood and predicted by (early) assessment of the integrity of the corticospinal…
The main objective is to understand the role of the noradrenergic system in human cognition by testing specific hypotheses about task performance in D*H patients. A secondary objective is to understand whether and how cognitive function is…
to study the effect of estradiolapplication on gonadotropin relaese in young and older men in the abscense of circulating testosterone.
To reduce the consumption of oral corticosteroids (OCS) in patients with severe asthma while maintaining asthma control, in order to decrease the incidence of long-term steroid-induced side effects and to improve quality of life (QoL). The specific…
The aim of the study is to test the synergistic effect of resistant starch, capsaicin, and protein on energy expenditure, substrate oxidation, and satiety. Furthermore, to investigate whether an 80% energy requirement high-protein diet containing…
The objective of this study is to make a first step in clarifying the information needs regarding the end of life.
