Individuals with schizophrenia have important and persistent deficits in multiple neurocognitive domains as well as in the Social Cognition (SC). SC refers to the mental operations underlying social behavior, and it is understood as a multidimensional construct that comprises emotional processing (EP), social perspective and knowledge, attributional bias and theory of mind (ToM) or mentalizing. Mentalizing and EP skills have been the two most studied subdomains of SC in schizophrenia. Both domains have been found to be impaired in chronic schizophrenia patients as well as in patients in early stages of the illness. In this context, although negative symptoms may play and important role, females seem to perform better than males in ToM and EP tasks, suggesting the presence of gender differences in the SC skills in patients with schizophrenia. However, to our knowledge, there are no studies that have explored the gender-related differences between cognitive and affective ToM and its relationship with the EP performance in schizophrenia patients of recent diagnosis comparing with healthy subjects. In this line, the main objective of this project is to analyze the influence of gender in the cognitive and affective ToM abilities, in a group of patients with schizophrenia in early stages of the illness comparing with healthy subjects. Secondarily, this study pretends to explore the association between EP skills and affective ToM tasks performance in males and females with and without recent diagnosis of schizophrenia.
Accumulating evidence from epidemiological and human intervention studies indicates that the cardiovascular health benefits of diets rich in fruits and vegetables are (in part) related to their (poly)phenol content. Cranberries are rich in (poly)phenols compounds, in particular anthocyanins, but also phenolic acids. At present, a small number of randomized controlled trials investigating the effects of berry (poly)phenols on validated surrogate markers of cardiovascular disease risk has shown promising results. However, to date, very few human studies have specifically investigated the effects of cranberry (poly)phenols on cardiovascular function in healthy subjects. To our knowledge, no study has investigated the time and intake-dependent effect of cranberry consumption on vascular function in healthy subjects. This information is necessary for the planning of long-term studies aiming to assess the potential beneficial effects of cranberries, using optimal amounts at optimal time points. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the potential role of cranberry (poly)phenols in the modulation of vascular function by monitoring changes in vascular function together with the major (poly)phenol derivatives/metabolites in plasma and urine.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether there are differences in postprandial metabolic indices following interesterified fats used in commercial spreads versus the corresponding un-interesterified blend.
To investigate the relationship between the combined Lu AF35700 and Lu AF36152 plasma concentration and D2 dopamine receptor occupancy up to 172 hours after oral dosing of Lu AF35700
To explore a neurophysiological marker (electroencephalography) of cognitive effect of vortioxetine
The purpose of this study is to determine whether high-fat meals rich in palmitic acid in the sn-2 position decrease lipaemia in men aged 40-70 y with higher than optimal fasting triacylglycerol concentrations.
The long term objective is to develop a new male hormone Dimethandrolone Undecanoate (DMAU) as a male hormonal contraceptive. The study has two parts. The first is a dose escalating study in healthy to assess the safety and tolerability of single dose oral administration of DMAUin healthy men.(Completed) The second is to study the safety and tolerability of DMAU after 28 days of repeated daily dosing of DMAU in healthy men. (Currently Recruiting) In both parts the investigators will also study the pharmacokinetics of Dimethandrolone (DMA) in the serum after oral administration of DMAU.
The study was conducted to investigate the effect of a calcium phosphate supplementation on the secretion of incretins.
This study is being done to study the healthful benefits of eating garlic. Previous studies suggest that garlic may help prevent cancer. The investigators are recruiting healthy volunteers to participate in a study to determine the ways in which eating garlic may reduce cancer risk.
