The main objective of the current study is to assess the impact of dietary collagen supplementation on human tendon protein synthesis.
Previous studies have shown that the origin of trained innate immunity lies in the bone marrow and is determined by epigenetic and metabolic reprogramming in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. In this study, we investigate whether long-term…
The objective of this study is to further unravel the complexity of human milk and its variations over lactation stages and between individuals.
Main objective: 1. Determine the feasibility, in terms of system fidelity and acceptability, of remote, image-based monitoring in cardiac surgery patients on a general ward. Secondary objectives: 1. The validity of remote, image-based heart- and…
To study the kinetics of the vaccine-induced antibody response against HPV16/18 after a two-dose schedule by measuring these antibody responses at approximately 7, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108 and 120 months following the first dose of HPV-…
To establish the test-retest reliability of the 13C-PBT for measuring Phe hydroxylation in patients with PKU.
The primary objective is to assess diagnostic accuracy of MRDTI/BTI for first and recurrent CVT in patients referred for MRI/MRV in the setting of routine clinical setting. The secondary objectives are to optimize MRDTI/BTI sequences for imaging…

The aim of this research proposal is to examine the effect of different ISIs on mTc-MEPs.Primary research question: What is the effect of different interstimulus intervals (ISIs) on mTc-MEP thresholds, peak-to-peak amplitudes, and area under the…
The aim of this study is to determine if mindfulness-based early intervention reduces internalizing symptoms in help-seeking youth and prevents their development into (serious) psychiatric illnesses. In addition we will examine putative changes in…
The aim of this current proposal is to compare test methods for determining TFS performance, to establish detection thresholds for both CI users and normal hearing subjects and to produce normative data for the computer model and machine learning…
The primary objective is to explore whether central sensitization and/or abnormal CPM responses are present in (a subgroup of) patients who will receive shoulder arthroplasty for osteoarthritis, and whether shoulder arthroplasty produces change in…
The main objective of this study is to determine whether tubal flushing with oil-based contrast during HSG results into more pregnancies leading to live births when compared to tubal flushing with ExEm-foam during HyFoSy, and whether this approach…
To gain insight in the disease mechanisms of IBD, the immune system, gut and oral microbiome, environmental factors, the intestinal mucus barrier, intestinal epithelium, nutritional factors and metabolome will be studied in unaffected siblings of…
