The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of aerobic fitness on the ability of able and disabled older adults to perform daily functional activities. Subjects are tested in their oxygen use patterns as they perform a series of functional tasks (such as walking on stairs) and following a 24-week training program focused on improving the ability to perform daily tasks likely requiring aerobic fitness (such as walking on stairs).
This study will test whether a self-management (SM) intervention, compared to usual care, will reduce the risk for adverse clinical outcome in patients with mild to moderate heart failure.
To examine the role of depression on risk for cardiovascular disease in twins.
To investigate the inverse association between socioeconomic status (SES) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study cohort.
To extend mortality followup through 25 years for two cohorts of men in the Multiple Risk Factor intervention Trial (MRFIT): the 361,662 men screened and the 12,866 men randomized, and to pursue the general aim of elucidating unresolved research issues on the epidemiology, natural history, etiology, prevention, and control of major chronic diseases, particularly cardiovascular and neoplastic diseases and diabetes.
To investigate the effects of different amounts of exercise on both cardiorespiratory fitness and risk factors for cardiovascular disease in sedentary, overweight, mildly hypertensive, but healthy, postmenopausal women aged 45 to 75 years.
To evaluate the trends in the incidence of venous thromboembolism, to determine the risk factors for venous thromboembolism in patients with medical and surgical illness, and to evaluate the efficacy of the anticoagulant therapy in reducing venous thromboembolism.
To determine whether retinal arteriolar changes (generalized narrowing, focal narrowing and arterio-venous nicking) and retinopathy were associated with 10-year stroke-and ischemic heart disease-related mortality.
This study will assess whether alternative, high phytoestrogen dietary interventions result in favorable effects on biological parameters that have been associated with hormone-dependent cancers, cardiovascular disease, and osteoporosis.
