Filter by:This study aims to decrease the racial gap in high blood pressure in African American and Latinx patients in Rush University Medical Center clinics.
50 patients with verified new-onset Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension are randomly allocated to standard weight management (dietician counselling) or trial intervention consisting of subcutaneous injections with Semaglutide for 10 months combined, in the initial 8 weeks following diagnosis, with a Very Low Calorie-Diet (max 800 kcal/day)
This single-arm trial of the Cardiovascular Risk Reduction Among People Experiencing Homelessness (CV-Homes) intervention alone (n=8) will test the perception and feasibility of anticipated study procedures.
Systemic arterial hypertension is a disease characterized by high blood pressure levels. It has a high prevalence, is a precursor of cardiovascular diseases, resulting in high costs to the health system and increased mortality. Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a low-frequency pulsed electrical current widely used for analgesia. Recently, it has been proposed as a non-pharmacological strategy for blood pressure control. The aim of this study is to verify the effect of low-frequency TENS when applied in different anatomical sites on blood pressure, autonomic control and endothelial function in hypertensive patients.
There is strong evidence suggesting that endoplasmic reticulum stress contributes to neurogenic and vascular hypertension in various animal models, however this has never been explored in humans. Therefore, this project will fill this gap by performing a single-blind, placebo-controlled trial in humans with hypertension.
The objective of this project is to elucidate the effect of L-Citrulline (L-CIT) supplementation on vascular function at rest and during rhythmic handgrip exercise and functional sympatholysis via lower-body negative pressure in postmenopausal women with elevated blood pressure and hypertension.
The study aims to describe the clinical characteristics and clarify the predictors of the short- and long-term outcomes of RHF patients, further assist the diagnosis, risk stratification and treatment of RHF.
The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a postpartum physical activity intervention after a pregnancy complicated by a Hypertensive Disorder of Pregnancy. The study will also assess the effects of the remote postpartum intervention on blood pressure. To do this, we will recruit individuals that are 3-6 months postpartum a pregnancy complicated by a hypertensive disorder to participate in a 4-month health coaching intervention aimed to promote physical activity and was informed by formative work done previously.
Out-of-office blood pressure is more strongly associated with cardiovascular risk than office blood pressure. Licorice is known to raise blood pressure, but no previous studies have measured the effects on home blood pressure. The aim of this study is to analyze the association between licorice intake and home blood pressure.
This randomized, blinded, sham-control trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a novel focused power ultrasound mediated inferior perirenal adipose tissue modification therapy for essential hypertension.
