Filter by:This non-randomized, open-label extension study will provide post-trial access to pelacarsen (TQJ230) to participants in Germany with hyperlipoproteinemia(a) and established cardiovascular disease who have successfully completed the double-blind parent study (CTQJ230A12302).
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to investigate the lipid-lowering effect of fenugreek seed consumed as a tea in patients with hyperlipidaemia, but without diabetes over an 8-week intervention period. Alteration of plasma microRNAs (e.g. microRNA-122 and microRNA-34a) will further be analysed for establishing as non-invasive therapeutic biomarkers of hyperlipidaemia. Participants will be asked to attend three study at baseline, 4 and 8 weeks in the Centre for Public Health. Each visit will involve the collection of demographic information, anthropometric measurements, blood pressure and fasting blood samples. Participants allocated to intervention or control will be asked to self-administer tea twice a day at a 12 hour interval over the 8-week study period. Researchers will compare the results of the consumption of fenugreek seed tea to the control black tea to see if fenugreek has any effect on lipid levels.
Type I hyperlipoproteinemia (T1HLP, also known as familial chylomicronemia syndrome or FCS) is a rare diseasewhere the blood triglycerides (fats) are very high. It is caused by lack of certain enzymes and proteins in the bodythat are important in disposing circulating fats from blood. Treatment of T1HLP patients who have very high levels of blood fats (≥ 1,000 mg/dL) is challenging as conventional triglyceride-lowering medications, such as fibrates and fishoil, are ineffective. The purpose of this trial is to study the long-term efficacy and safety of orlistat for reducing blood triglyceride levels in patients with T1HLP.
The aim of the study is to identify children and families that are at risk for cardiovascular disease because of a condition known as familial hyperlipidemia. This condition may increase the risk of cardiac events such as hardening of the arteries anywhere in the body which can result in heart attacks, strokes, and death over ten fold. Children have already been assessed in the Healthy Hearts screening program and identified as having elevated cholesterol. A buccal smear will identify whether the familial hyperlipidemia condition exist in your child. If the child's test shows that they have the specific gene for familial hyperlipidemia and shows a genetic tendency towards premature heart disease, we would encourage genetic testing for as many blood family members as possible. The study plan is to determine whether the Healthy Hearts screening program is a more effective way of identifying students at risk since it is estimated that less than 10% of those individuals with the problem have been identified. If it is effective, then it will be incorporated as part of the standard screening process in the Healthy Hearts program. Aim 1: Is a school screening program a more effective method to identifying those at risk for familial hyperlipidemia? Aim 2: What percent of children with elevated cholesterol ≥ 200 mg/dl have familial hyperlipidemia?
This randomized, cross-over design, controlled trial will assess the effects of 8 weeks of daily inclusion of 2 whole eggs in the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) eating plan, compared with their exclusion, on cardio-metabolic risk markers and diet quality in hyperlipidemic adults.
Determination of FH status by genetic testing in school age children who have demonstrated elevated cholesterol on baseline screening.
"Phospholipovit" vs placebo in patients with combined hyperlipidemia
Epilepsy is a disabling and lethal neurological disease which affect 3.47 million Americans. Significant health care disparities exist in people with epilepsy (PWE). Hypertension and hyperlipidemia are highly prevalent and often go undertreated, and cardiovascular (CV) mortality is higher in people with epilepsy (PWE) than the general population. Preliminary data from our group shows that PWE have higher ACC-ASCVD risk scores than an age matched NHANES cohort without epilepsy. Preliminary data also demonstrate mortality rates in PWE due to hypertension, stroke, and diabetes are rising in the US, counter to the US general population. This proposal seeks to test the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a new care model for the underserved PWE in a public health setting. In this new model, neurologists guided by standardized treatment algorithms (ACC-ASCVD estimator+) propose and initiate pharmacological interventions for hypertension and hyperlipidemia.
Investigators aimed to evaluate efficacy and safety of early Initiation of evolocumab and combination lipid-lowering agent (statin + Ezetimibe) on lipid profiles changes in patients with ACS undergoing PCI
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of co-administration of DWC202206 and DWC202207 in patients with concomitant hypertension and hyperlipidemia.
