Filter by:To analyze cardiovascular disease mortality and total mortality in the NAS-NRC Twin Registry using a new methodology that allowed for censored observations of outcomes, environmental covariates, and unmeasured genotype-environment interactions.
To identify risk factors for idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy and to examine prognostic factors over a follow-up period of two to three years.
To examine the relationships of obesity and fat patterning with morbidity and mortality in Black Americans.
To determine the incidence of type II diabetes and cardiovascular disease among Mexican-American and non-Hispanic whites in a 15 to 24 year follow-up of the San Antonio Heart Study 1 participants. Also, to perform a 15 to 24 year mortality follow-up of the cohort and to examine the "Hispanic paradox".
To study the relationship between diabetes and various macro- and microvascular complications in Oklahoma Indians.
To assess the association of immunogenetic factors with onset of coronary heart disease and the interrelationship of these factors with standard coronary heart disease risk factors.
To determine the role of apolipoprotein B and apolipoprotein A1 in the etiology of coronary artery disease.
To determine factors beyond obesity which contribute to diabetes and cardiovascular risk in Mexicans and Mexican Americans. To test the hypothesis that at any given level of adiposity Mexican Americans will be more insulin resistant than Anglos and that the insulin resistance in Mexican Americans is proportional to the degree of Native American ancestry.
To continue the comprehensive research program on the epidemiology of cardiovascular and other major chronic diseases, including cancer and diabetes, in four Chicago population cohorts. The four cohorts include the Chicago Heart Association Detection Project in Industry cohort, the Peoples Gas Company cohort first examined in 1958-1959, the Peoples Gas Company cohort first examined in 1959-1962, and the Western Electric Company cohort.
To document the role of the genotype in the cardiovascular and metabolic responses to aerobic exercise-training and the contribution of inherited factors in the changes brought about by regular exercise for several cardiovascular disease and diabetes risk factors. A consortium of laboratories from five institutions in the United States and Canada are carrying out this study.
