The present PhD thesis focuses on the investigation of ADAS and the older driver. Even though, recent research investigated the effects of ADAS on driving performance, little is known about the long-term effects of the systems on performance.…
Main objectives are to investigate the cognitive effects of alternating endurance-strength training in APOEe4 carriers and non-carriers in early stage dementia and to identify a dose-response relationship of the cognitive effects of exercise.…
This project aims to determine the effects of an extensive exercise program in MCI patients with respect to the progression of the disease
Primary Objective: Our primary objective is to test the feasibility of the online In-MINDD intervention through a primary care-based feasibility RCT. We hypothesize, that providing persons with information on their health profile and access to…
Our aim is to investigate the cognitive effects of an interactive cycling training in early stage dementia patients (in comparison to an aerobic cycling training and a control group).In addition we will investigate whether the effects of training…
To study the short term effects of a pharmacological dose of fish oil on cognitive performance and on cerebral blood flow. Furthermore, we want to investigate whether carriers of the APOE*4 allele respond differently to fish oil treatment compared…
In the current study, the effect of oral health care and normal diet on quality of life of elderly persons suffering from dementia.The results from the baseline assessment will be used as cross-sectional data to establish correlations between the…
Part 1: Main objective: Investigate the relation between level of physical (in)activity and cognition in healthy elderly and to examine the possible moderating effects of (Apolipoprotein E e4) APOEe4 status and IGF-1 and BDNF levels and blood…
We aim to assess whether aerobic exercise leads to increased cerebral perfusion in patients with vascular cognitive impairment.
The main objective of the study is to investigate the effects of three different passive exercise interventions (Therapeutic Motion Simulation (TMS), Whole Body Vibration (WBV) and a combination of TMS and WBV) on quality of life and physical daily…
We want to study the effects and cost-effectivity with an randomised controlled trial in which we compare participants with dementia (and their informal caregiver) in daycentres which offer exergaming with participants in daycentres that offer…
To test the feasibility of supplying a tailored, digital health app, designed to increase insight in how to reduce one*s dementia risk, in the general practice. Secondly, we aim to explore the usability of experience-sampling method (ESM) technology…
