With the proposed study we aim to gain insight into the effects of oxytocin (OT) on both parents* and grandparents* sensitive, empathic, and protective responses to their (grand)children, and in the neural origins of these responses.The primary…
Primary aim:In recently traumatized individuals (at the latest on day ten post trauma exposure) with a high initial level of distress, we aim to assess the effectiveness of intranasal OT in preventing symptoms of PTSD at one months post intervention…
This proposal centers on hormone-behavior dynamics in paternal caregiving, with the goal of gaining a better understanding of the development of human paternal caregiving. There is limited information on the hormonal basis of caregiving patterns in…
Our study aims at investigating whether male adults with ASD differ from healthy male adults in their neurophysiological responses to positive and negative empathy-evoking pictures when taking oxytocin intranasally once. To this end we will compare…
To study whether the administration of oxytocin leads to stronger empathic responses on 3 different empathy-related tasks compared to a placebo.
In this functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) study, the primary objective is to examine the acute effects of intranasal OT administration on emotional- and reward-related brain processes in PTSD patients compared to traumatized healthy…
To investigate whether discontinuation of Syntocinon® infusion after the onset of active labour decreases caesarean section rates compared to usual care; continuation of oxytocin until the baby and placenta is born.
The primary objective of the study is to prospectively confirm the safety and effectiveness profile of Coil treatment in consideration of the findings of previous Randomized Controlled Trials.Secondary objectives are determination of responder rates…
Objectives: 1) To investigate whether attachment security, autonomy-connectedness, and childhood experiences moderate effects of social support during stress; 2) To investigate the influence of oxytocin on the ability to be close to others (in an…
The objectives of the study are to gain more knowledge on 1) the effect of the LVRC treatment on patient-based outcomes like physical activity, 2) the underlying physiological mechanism of the treatment, and 3) the predictors of response to the…
To evaluate the effects of intranasal oxytocin versus placebo on social behaviour and also on eating behaviour in children with PWS.
Objective of the study is to evaluate the performance of the CERAB configuration using Bentley covered stents.
The aim of the study is to understand whether enhanced oxytocin levels lead to increased eye contact between patient and physician, and if this in turn improves the patient-physician relationship as perceived by the patient.
The aim of this study is to improve our understanding of the mechanisms underlying altered social performance monitoring from a pharmacological perspective by directly comparing the effects of dopamine and oxytocin on individual and social…
