Primary:To assess the non-inferiority of the sedative properties of continuous intravenous (i.v.) clonidine compared to continuous i.v. midazolam in mechanically ventilated children and adolescents (0 - <18 years) admitted to a paediatric…
Primary Objective:The primary objective in the current trial is to use graph theory to examine how the organization of the functional brain network may be altered by the administration of methylphenidate. The main question we intend to answer in…
We aim to examine, in the impaired older population, whether a treatment using methylphenidate, a DA re-uptake inhibitor that enhances DA, improves attention and memory.
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether ACE inhibition results in an improvement of microvascular glycocalyx-thickness in patients with type 1 diabetes. The secondary objectives are to investigate whether this (hypothesized)…
The objectives of this study are to establish whether methylphenidate PD effects can be measured using neurocognitive tasks, to describe the drug concentrations of methylphenidate in saliva, to describe the PK/PD relationship using the obtained…
The objective of this project is to study the role of dopaminergic mechanisms in apathy, mood and HDD in patients with PD. What is the involvement of the dopaminergic neurotransmitter system in motivation and reward processes in PD and the clinical…
Primary:The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of LDX administered as a daily morning dose (30, 50, and 70mg/day) compared to placebo over the course of 7 weeks. This study will enrol children and adolescents (6-17 years of…
To test the hypothesis whether treatment with an ACE inhibitor in young prehypertensive adults reduces blood pressure 2 years after cessation of active treatment and to determine whether this treatment can reduce left ventricular mass and…

To replicate and extend the findings of the recent methylphenidate study in which methylphenidate was found to enhance episodic memory performance; To explore whether this effect of methylphenidate is primarily mediated by its dopaminergic action.
Primary objective of the study: 1. To report on the effectmodification by age of MPH treatment on the outgrowth of the DA system using state-of-the-art Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) techniquesSecondary objectives:1. To report on the…
Primary Objective: To study the change on performance on executive function and memory function (as measured on Neurocart), after an active challenge with methylphenidate (monoaminergic) and galantamine (cholinergic), compared to placebo, in…
The primary aim is to investigate whether six weeks augmentation with clonidine of the antipsychotic treatment will reduce positive and negative symptomatology of treatment resistant schizophrenia patients. Important secondary goals of this project…
The main objective of this study is to compare the acute effects of methylphenidate on behavioral and cognitive functioning in 6 to 12 year old treatment naïve children compared to the effects after nine months of treatment with methylphenidate in…
Primary Objective: To determine the effectiveness of methylphenidate in reduction of ADHD symptomatology, operationalized by personalized goals that are important to the patient and its environment, in individuals with late-diagnosed PKU. Secondary…
