The objective of this study is to assess whether or not apical surgery that is carried out with the help of a microscope has a higher success rate than apical surgery without the use of a microscope. No RCT is found in present literature (Del Fabbro…
Primary Objective: The aim of this study is to determine a cut-off score at the PQ-16 with the CAARMS for better detection of adolescents 12-18 years at risk. Secondary Objective(s): To study the course of UHR in adolescents 12-18 years over a one…
To compare the digestibility, bioavailability and subsequent muscle protein synthetic response to casein, with casein protein provided in an isolated manner versus casein in a milk matrix, in healthy elderly subjects
The first objective of this study is to gain insight in which neurocognitive and neurobiological processes underlie the development of externalizing behavior (in specific aggressive behavior) in the first two years of life. The second objective is…
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…
The proposed study will test whether the intervention-based parenting assessment of the parents* capacity to improve (VIPP-APP; Video-Feedback intervention to promote Positive Parenting for the Assessment of Parenting Potential) contributes to…
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 aim of this study is to compare the image quality, diagnostic confidence and patient discomfort when using either positive (50 ml Télébrix Gastro + 950 ml water ) or negative 1000 ml water only in outpatients undergoing a contrast-enhanced…
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).
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…
To study the effectiveness of gut-directed hypnotherapy in the treatment of IBS-like symptoms in patients with inflammatory bowel disease.
(1) To compare adenoma miss rates (AMR) between Endocuff Vision-assisted colonoscopy (EAC) and conventionalcolonoscopy (CC)(2) To compare adenoma detection rates (ADR) between EAC and CC(3) To assess whether a proposed increased ADR and reduced AMR…
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 goal is to investigate the added value of having a cytotechnician on-site while performing EUS-FNA of a lymph node.
The primary objectives are to investigate whether L-carnitine infusion may rescue lipid-induced insulin resistance and whether L-carnitine infusion is improving metabolic flexibility in the state of lipid-induced insulin resistance. Furthermore,…
The UPGRADE-RT trial will investigate whether de-escalation of the elective radiation dose and introduction of an intermediate dose-level in the treatment of head and neck cancer will results in less radiation sequelae and improved quality of life…
We hypothesize that stepwise dose of intravenous infusion of nitroglycerin reverses clinical abnormalities of peripheral circulation in patients with circulatory shock and that this can lead to improvement in survival rate. In addition, we expect…
We aim to investigate whether pulsatile flow in patients subjected to CPB preserves postoperative microcirculatory perfusion by prevention of a prothrombogenic profile and endothelial activation as are both present under non-pulsatile flow…
To determine the effect of a structured diagnostic-therapeutic strategy to detect and treat previously unrecognized or unestablished heart failure in primary care as compared to care as usual.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of supplementation of a high oral dose of omega-3 fatty acids on hepatic steatosis and glucose metabolism in morbidly obese patients undergoing laparoscopic Roux-Y gastric bypass surgery (LRYGBP).
