Filter by:The aim of the present study is to determine the prevalence of cardiometabolic and infectious disease in La Reunion (french oversea department and region of France). Known or suspected risk factor for these diseases will also be assessed, such as microbiota, cognitive impairement, social inequalities, and genetics.
Cancer and cardiovascular disease are the global leading causes of death. These two disease entities are multifactorial disease that are caused by several factors. The aim of this prospective cohort study was to investigate the status of risk factors profiles and health related behavior in Korean population, and to discover novel risk factors associated with the occurrence of endpoint events.
In the context of physical exercise, there is no evidence of the acute and continued use of beetroot juice with a previously recommended dose of nitrate (NO3) (>300mg) on the cardiovascular performance of hypertensive and postmenopausal women. We will investigate the effects of beetroot juice rich in NO3 acutely (first day: 140mL/800mg) and during a week with daily doses (second to the seventh day: 70mL/400mg) on blood pressure, heart rate (HR), cardiac autonomic control, EF, inflammatory, hormonal, and stress biomarkers oxidative stress and enzymes involved in nitric oxide synthesis and mitochondrial regulation, under resting conditions, as well as mediated by submaximal aerobic exercise sessions. Through a randomized, crossover, triple-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial, 20 physically inactive hypertensive women will undergo an acute and 7-day trial, each with two intervention protocols: 1) placebo and 2) beetroot; in which will ingest beet juice with or without NO3 in its composition with a 7-day washout interval. On collection days, exercise will be performed on a treadmill for 40 minutes at a speed corresponding to 65-70% of VO2peak. The collection of variables (cardiovascular, autonomic, and blood samples for molecular analyses) of the study will take place at rest (120 minutes after ingestion of the intervention), during exercise (40 minutes), and in the effort recovery stage (during 65 minutes) based on previously validated protocols. The collections were arranged so that the measurement of one variable does not interfere with the other and that they have adequate intervals between them.
Hypertension - a chronic condition of elevated blood pressure (BP) - is a highly prevalent condition. However, effective prevention and management of hypertension remain challenging under the current standard of care (SOC). There has been a growing recognition that one-off, irregular office BP measurements are not sufficient and that regular home BP monitoring will likely be an adjunct to conventional office BP measurements. By using artificial intelligence (AI), via the CURATE.AI platform, the goal is to use patients' BP data to rapidly generate personalized anti-hypertensive dose titrations. The main aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of CURATE.AI-assisted dose titration.
The present study aims to investigate whether care improvement in patients after catheter ablation/cardioversion compared with standard care can be realized by using a digital eHealth platform with connected mobile sensors through early detection of atrial fibrillation recurrence and patient empowerment.
This study tests the efficacy of a dyadic intervention to mitigate the adverse health consequences of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS- CoV-2 )(COVID-19) in African American (AA) adults with pre-existing chronic health conditions and their informal carepartners (IC). Socioeconomically disadvantaged, older, and Black/African American from rural regions are burdened with greater rates of chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular disease, and stroke.
Recently, large clinical intervention studies have demonstrated the cardiovascular protective effects on of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) such as empagliflozin, dapagliflozin, and canagliflozin in reduction of cardiovascular and all-cause mortality, coincident with a significant reduction in heart failure hospitalizations. Therefore, SGLT2i had been recommended as a therapeutic drug for diabetic patients to reduce the occurrence of cardiovascular events. However, the mechanism of these benefits remains unclear at the present time. Myocardial fibrosis is not only an important physiopathological mechanism of heart failure, but also has been shown to be closely associated with the risk of heart failure-related hospitalization and death, especially in patients with T2D. However, whether SGLT2i can exert cardioprotective effects by improving myocardial fibrosis remains to be further investigated. In recent years, the development of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) technology enables to detect focal and diffuse fibrosis in myocardial tissue, which makes it possible to systematically explore the role of SGLT2i on myocardial fibrosis. Although several studies including EMPA-HEART, SUGAR-DM-HF have explored the effects of SGLT2i on cardiac structure and function, these studies didn't reach consistent results. In addition, more scarce studies have investigated the effects of SGLT2i on both focal and diffuse fibrosis. At present, whether SGLT2i treatment can change the relevant indicators of myocardial fibrosis in people with diabetes and cardiovascular risk factors has not yet been reported. In addition, previous studies mainly focus on empagliflozin and dapagliflozin, and studies on canagliflozin are still very scarce. Therefore, this study intends to explore the effects of canagliflozin on myocardial fibrosis and other structures and functions of the heart in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and high cardiovascular risk factors.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether NightWare therapeutic intervention improves biomarkers of vascular aging and autonomic function in adults with nightmares related to PTSD.
This study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of cryoballoon ablation comparing with medical therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation and heart failure with different ejection fraction categories.
This is a prospective, multi-center, single-arm, open-label, First in Human clinical trial to provide preliminary evidence for the safety and efficacy of the novel IoNIR stent system.
