Filter by:To determine the nature, extent and molecular mechanisms responsible for impaired fibrinolysis in White, Black, Hispanic and American Indian populations with respect to the presence or absence of diabetes. The overall objective is to determine whether impairments of fibrinolysis underlie subclinical and clinical vascular disease in diabetes in specific populations with and without accelerated microvascular disease.
To elucidate the interrelationship of level of cardiovascular disease knowledge and subsequent clinical health status by merging population-based cardiovascular disease risk factor survey data with patient-level hospital data. The overall goal was to assess outcomes in the positive/negative association between level of cardiovascular disease knowledge and incidence and relative degree of morbidity among a cohort with and without major cardiovascular disease risk factors.
To better understand the excess cardiovascular disease associated with diabetes mellitus.
To elucidate the changes in body size, composition, and configuration occurring in adolescence, because these are important precursors of change in blood pressure and blood lipids.
To elucidate the influence of ethnicity and socioeconomic status (SES) on women's cardiovascular health, using recently completed risk factor and mortality data from the Stanford Five-City Project.
To establish the aspects of ethnicity that are associated with the differential expression of cardiovascular disease processes in African Americans and Caucasian Americans twin children.
To elucidate the biochemical, metabolic, and genetic markers and mechanisms of macrovascular disease in insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM).
To test hypotheses related to gender differences in cardiovascular mortality trends between 1980 and 1991 in two southeastern New England communities which were part of the Pawtucket Heart Health Program.
To analyze the association between an objective measure of "job strain" and risk of stroke, and change in ambulatory blood pressure.
To evaluate the hypothesis that chronic anxiety and/or anxiety disorders resulted in hyperkinetic cardiovascular autonomic regulation, often associated with increased coronary risk.
