Filter by:The purpose of the study was to investigate the potential interaction between ivabradine and bisoprolol in healthy subjects.
Purpose: The overall hypothesis of the study is that the benefits attained in the EMPA-OUTCOME were, at least in part, mediated by a glucose-independent mechanism. Thus, to demonstrate the existence of the postulated non-glucose dependent effects, the researchers will investigate the safety and efficacy of empagliflozin versus placebo on top of guideline-directed medical therapy in heart failure patients with reduced ejection fraction without diabetes.
The purpose of this study is to determine that effects of an intervention called High-resolution, relational, resonance-based, electroencephalic mirroring (HIRREM), on Stage 1 Primary Hypertension (systolic BP 130-139, and/or diastolic BP 80-89).
An adequate physical activity level has important effects on cardiovascular health of children. However, the scientific literature suggests that few children meet the physical activity recommendations to obtain these cardiovascular benefits which may have immediate and long term consequences in public health. High intensity interval training (HIIT) has emerged as an effective strategy for improving physical and mental health in children. To note that HIIT can be completed in a shorter period of time and its results in physical health seem to be equivalent to those obtained in longer sessions of traditional aerobic training. However, there is no information about the dose of HIIT needed to obtain significant effects on cardiovascular health of children. The adoption of healthy dietary habits is also important in the prevention of obesity and cardiovascular diseases. School-based programs including physical activity and nutritional education have been recommended as important components of programs aiming to prevent obesity and cardiovascular diseases.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of a home-based high intensity interval training intervention on exercise among low active adults (defined as engaging in exercise 90 minutes or less per week). Participants will be randomly assigned to a HIIT-based intervention or a wait-list control each lasting 12 weeks (participants in the wait-list control condition will have the option of receiving the HIIT intervention following the 12 weeks).
The main goal of the OptimAT study main goal is to validate a PBPK model for 3 direct oral anticoagulants (rivaroxaban, apixaban, dabigatran) and 3 P2Y12 inhibitors (clopidogrel, ticagrelor, prasugrel) in hospitalized patients.
The investigators present an interesting co-incidence of Gated wall abnormality in the inferolateral wall in normal sestamibi myocardial perfusion images with J wave in the inferior derivations of the ECG in a patient. The subsequent coronary angiography demonstrated 80% mid right coronary artery (RCA) stenosis, which was intervened with a drug-eluting stent. The investigators conclude that even though the myocardial perfusion is normal, the association of gated wall abnormality with J wave presentation within the same location should be further evaluated.
This study will test the effectiveness of mailed, smartphone urinalysis kits to improve albuminuria screening compliance and detection of albuminuria.
To investigate the prospective association between a vegetarian diet and chronic degenerative diseases in two cohorts of Taiwanese Buddhists
N-acyl-phosphatidylethanolamine (NAPEs) and their active metabolites, N-acyl-ethanolamides (NAEs) are lipid satiety factors that are normally biosynthesized in the intestinal tract in response to food intake. Reduced levels of NAPEs and NAEs have been found in obese individuals, and increasing plasma NAPE and NAEs levels may be beneficial to obese individuals trying to lose weight or to keep off weight gain after losing weight. We have found that oatmeal has large amounts of NAPEs, and based on previous mouse studies, we hypothesize that a single dose of dietary oatmeal is sufficient to double plasma NAE from baseline, possibly inducing satiety and increasing basal metabolic rate. To test this hypothesis, we will feed volunteers a single weight-based serving of oatmeal while monitoring its effects on serum glucose, NAPE and NAE levels as well as on subjective satiety.
