To investigate whether a specifically designed multispecies probiotic mixture (ecologic 825®), as adjuvant therapy, can contribute to an improvement of intestinal permeability, microbiota composition, disease activity and inflammatory markers in…
The primary objective is to evaluate whether 2.5 µg VD3 analogue (Zemplar® * Abbvie) in multiple subcutaneously administered doses induces a more favourable (read: anti-inflammatory) systemic immune modulation both in general parameters and allergen…
Primary Objective(s): 1. To obtain preliminary data on whether (and to which extend) adjuvant chemotherapy for colon cancer results in (a) deterioration of contractile muscle properties and increased muscle fatigability, (b) increased inflammation…
Primary objective: Investigate the effects of acute stress on resting state and task-induced connectivity in the brain of healthy individuals and unaffected siblings of schizophrenia patients. Secondary objectives: - Correlate the endocrine stress…
The purpose of the present study is to investigate the effects of light therapy (with two different light boxes) on depression in people with intellectual disability (IQ *70 ) compared to standard care (care as usual).

By relating valid learning fMRI phenotypes to the earliest expression of psychopathology and response to non-pharmacological self-management treatment, the project will contribute to the new innovative field of practical neuroimaging in the earliest…
The primary objective is to test the hypothesis that a protein-rich nutritional supplement (containing 45 g of dietary protein) prior to surgery acutely increases skeletal muscle and bone protein synthesis rates in older patients undergoing a hip…
The main objective of this study is to assess whether ICD therapy in dialysis patients reduces sudden (arrhythmogenic) cardiac death. The first secondary end point is to compare total mortality death between the two groups. An other is to evaluate…
To study the effectiveness of gut-directed hypnotherapy in the treatment of IBS-like symptoms in patients with inflammatory bowel disease.
The primary objective is to compare the haemostatic effect of VHA-guided transfusion strategy versus optimized CCT guided transfusion strategy in haemorrhaging trauma patients. The secondary objectives of the study are to determine the effects of…
To gain further insight into the interaction and possibly shared pathophysiological mechanisms of female-specific cardiovascular risk factors and events we will quantify white matter hyperintensities on brain MRI and assess endothelial function in…
The primary objective is to determine if MK-7 supplementation leads to stabilization or attenuation of ongoing calcium deposition, quantified by 18F- NaF PET/CT imaging in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Primary objective: To investigate the effect of supplementation of a single intramuscular dose of 80 mg triamcinolone on the level of MPT-induced dynamic hyperinflation, in adult asthma patients with demonstrated dynamic hyperinflation. (Part 1)…
