Filter by:This is a multicenter, prospective observational study. Will be collecting data from 90 consecutive patients (aged 25- 60 years ) with and without migraine admitted at our Hospital. Primary aim of the study will be to assess the correlation between migraine and proteomic profiling of plasma and their possible correlation with known cardio and cerebrovascular disease and Cardiovascular (CV) risk factors.
The Investigators will create a clinical database and a Biobank of stem cells derived from the blood of participants with cardiovascular disease. The Investigators will recruit participants from diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds with equal representation from both sexes. The Investigators expect to create stem cells and analyze the blood for protein biomarkers and genetic causes of cardiovascular disease. The stem cell biobank and clinical data will be a powerful tool for studying cardiovascular disease.
To explore how estrogen deficiency impacts the blood pressure (BP) and sympathetic nerve activity (SNA), and how it impacts the production of the key pro-inflammatory mediators such as Tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and interleukin-6 (IL-6). It is hypothesized that estrogen deficiency increases BP, SNA and the pathway activities of the key pro-inflammatory mediators. Those effects are impacted through the downregulation of the estrogen receptor.
This is a first-in-human, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose study in healthy volunteers. Kylo-11 will be evaluated in approximately 60 subjects to assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic effects.
Caffeine is one of the most widely consumed substances worldwide. This study looks to test and measure the changes in different biomarkers in the blood before and after having caffeine using capillary and venous blood sampling methods. A biomarker is a measurable indicator of biological processes. The primary goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate participant rate and adherence. It will also learn about how caffeine affects different biomarkers that may be related to cardiovascular disease. Finally, it will assess the accuracy of the capillary blood samples compared to the venous blood samples. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the feasibility of recruiting and retaining participants? - Are the study procedures appropriate to be translated to a larger future study? Researchers will compare caffeine to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if Participants will: - Be randomly assigned to the control group or the caffeine group. Individuals in the control group will be taking a placebo pill with no effect and those in the caffeine group will be taking 400mg of caffeine in pill form. - Be asked to undergo a fast of at least 8 hours overnight before taking two placebo pills or the 400 mg of caffeine via two caffeine pills. They will be required to stay fasted for 6 hours after taking the pill as well. The total time fasted will be at least 14 hours. - Have blood collected using three different methods before taking the two pills, 3 hours after taking the pills and 6 hours after taking the pills. The 3 methods include intravenous (IV) blood sampling, finger prick and collection on Whatman 903 Protein Saver Card and collection using the TASSO+ device. The TASSO+ blood collection device is a small capillary blood collection device that is designed to be easy to use and able to be used outside of a hospital/lab setting. Whatman 903 Protein Saver Cards are special filter paper with five circles for samples, that are designed for the collection and storage of blood.
A prospective, open label, multi-center, single arm, observational study designed to evaluate the acute safety and device performance of the Sapphire 3 0.85, 1.0 and 1.25mm diameter coronary dilatation catheter in predilatation of Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) lesions during percutaneous coronary intervention. One hundred seventy (170) subjects will be enrolled with a target of one hundred fifty-three (153) evaluable subjects by the angiographic core laboratory at up to 15 clinical sites with the Sapphire 3 0.85, 1.0 and 1.25mm diameter PTCA dilatation catheter to pre-dilate CTO lesions in coronary arteries during their index procedure. All subjects will be screened according to the protocol inclusion and exclusion criteria and will be followed through study completion, which is defined as 24-hours post-procedure or hospital discharge, whichever comes first.
Epicardial fat thickness, carotid intima-media thickness, and augmentation index from arterial stiffness indicators are increased in children with T1DM compared to the healthy control group. These results support the idea that children with T1DM present significant changes in important subclinical indicators for the development of cardiovascular disease.
Bacoxy_I study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a standardized Bacopa monnieri extract, Bacopa-400®, on vascular oxidative stress.
The CONNECT: "Developing a learning COmmunity to increase eNgagemeNt and Enrollment in cardiovascular Clinical Trials" is comprehensive, participant-centered learning community that provides tailored education on cardiovascular (CV) health and research participation; connects community members to CV-related research; and disseminates CV-related study findings. The overreaching goal of CONNECT is to improve participation of underrepresented communities in CV research, including as women, Black adults, and Latino adults, through increasing participants' clinical trial awareness, trust in biomedical research, and willingness to participate in clinical trials. CONNECT will use digital and community-engaged approaches to identify and recruit 1000 adults with cardiovascular disease or a cardiovascular disease risk factor to join CONNECT. Participants who join CONNECT will receive tailored educational information on CV health and research participation via text message. Participants will also have the opportunity to be matched to ongoing CV research studies based on basic demographic information and areas of interest. The educational information will be sent to participants for 12 months. The investigators hypothesize that CONNECT will increase participants' clinical trial awareness, trust, and willingness to participate in clinical trials and that the proportion of Black and Latin adults and women enrolled in trials that partner with CONNECT will be higher following the use of CONNECT for recruitment.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test two advices on alcohol drinking in more than 10.000 Spanish adult drinkers (men of 50 or more years and women of 55 or more years). The main question it aims to answer is to test the non-inferiority advice of a moderate alcohol drinking pattern on all-cause mortality and other chronic disease like cardiovascular disease, cancer or type 2 diabetes. Participants will receive during 4 years an advice to drink alcohol following a Mediterranean Alcohol Drinking Pattern (MADP): consuming alcohol in moderation, avoidance of binge drinking and preference for red wine. Researchers will compare those who will receive a MADP advice with those who will receive an advice on abstention to see if the advice on MADP is not inferior than the abstention advice to prevent all-cause mortality and other chronic diseases.
