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.
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.
Heart failure (HF) is a global, public health issue that affects more than 63 million people worldwide; this burden is expected to increase substantially as the population ages. Despite advancements in treatment, a HF diagnosis still leads to significant morbidity and mortality; there is also an immense impact on patients' health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Dapagliflozin was recently granted approval for heart failure by the European Commission, regardless of ejection fraction and whether the patient has diabetes. Real-world observational data are necessary to describe dapagliflozin use in real-world settings in order to assess treatment patterns, HF symptoms and their impact on physical limitation, HRQoL and work productivity, as well as health care utilization of patients treated with dapagliflozin in this setting under local treatment standard conditions in Germany.
The goal of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial is to investigate the immunological effects of influenza vaccination outside of the influenza season on arterial inflammation in patients with a recent acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The primary objective is to compare the effects of influenza vaccination to those of a placebo in reducing post-myocardial infarction coronary inflammation as measured by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does influenza vaccination reduce arterial inflammation as measured by CCTA at week 8 after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in comparison to baseline? Does influenza vaccination modulate systemic inflammation as measured by blood biomarkers and in-vitro challenge tests at week 8 after PCI in comparison to baseline? Researchers will compare the effects of influenza vaccination with those of a placebo.
The association between Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) and Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is well established. Traditional risk factors for CVD and CKD are similar, with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) being the most prevalent risk factor. However, CKD is underdiagnosed and undertreated in patients with CVD. Further understanding of the combination of CKD in CVD patients is important to formulate prevention and treatment strategies for CVD patients and high-risk groups, reduce adverse events in CVD patients, and prevent progression of CKD to End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD).
POWER Health is a randomized clinical trial with a two-arm parallel design whose objectives are 1) to study metabolic flexibility and autonomic function (both capacities that describe cardiovascular health) in a sample of postmenopausal oncological women vs postmenopausal untreated controls (CT); and 2) to analyze the impact of two different 8-week physical exercise supervised interventions: HIIT training vs strength training focused on muscle power, on both cardiovascular capacities in these populations.
The objective of this protocol is to investigate the effect of consumption of a commercially available energy drink beverage on blood pressure, heart rate, and energy metabolism
100 women with karyotype verified TS, previously examined at 4 study visits during a 19-year period will be asked to participate in a 5th study visit. Healthy age-matched females will be included as controls in a ratio 2:1. The aim is to examine and quantify the cardiovascular and lymphatic system in women with TS. The investigators will study a possible causal mechanism between the known pathologic phenotype and alterations in these systems to understand, prevent or treat the life-threatening complications in TS.
The goal of our pragmatic clinical trial is to compare how well three different strategies might do to reduce risk factors for cardiovascular disease in patients experiencing health disparities. The three different strategies are: 1) text messages, 2) interactive chatbot messages, and 3) chatbot messages with proactive pharmacist support. To measure cardiovascular risk factors, the investigators are using the American Heart Association's Life's Essential 8 (LE8) factors-blood glucose, cholesterol, blood pressure, physical activity, body mass index, diet, and smoking. This study focuses on improving cardiovascular risk factors for individuals facing health disparities, such as ethnic minorities, limited English proficiency, and low-income groups. These groups are more likely to be seriously affected by cardiovascular diseases. Self-management, or an individual's roles in managing their own chronic disease, includes lifestyle changes, medication adherence. Improving patients' self-management has been shown to improve health behaviors, better disease control and improved patient outcomes. The main question this study aims to answer is if one of the strategies (texting, chatbot, or chatbot with pharmacist support) may improve patient self-management and patient outcomes. The investigators will enroll up to 2,100 patients from three health systems that serve large populations experiencing health disparities: Denver Health, Salud Family Health Centers, and STRIDE Community Health Center. The results might help researchers and health care systems find the best ways to involve patients with health disparities to managing their chronic cardiovascular disease.
