To fully characterize skeletal muscle strength and endurance, phenotype and muscle fiber type-specific satellite cell content in frail elderly as compared to those elderly that do not classify as frail according to clinical criteria.
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effect of - short vs. long - oro-sensory exposure combined with a gastric load - low vs. high in energy -, on gastric emptying rate. As secondary outcome we want to investigate the effect of…
The objective of the current proposal is to further explore the pathophysiological changes that occur in patient with an IGSF1 mutation, using an established method for assessing hormone secretory characteristics.
to find evidence for frontal inhibition during planning of explicit movements just as seen in patients with conversion disorders.
The primary objective is to determine if there is an association between the presence of vertebral and/or rib anomalies and congenital malformations, aneuploidy or adverse fetal outcome, in order to assess whether detailed evaluation of the…
Primary Objective: To define a top set of genes that most reliably (r >=0.95) distinguish psoriasis from normal skin. We will define this set from differential methylation genes to indicate potential biomarkers.Secondary Objective(s):…
