Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Olostar Tablet on blood pressure and lipid profiles, obtain safety-related information for subgroups that failed to participate in the clinical trials, and to evaluate variables that affect treatment effectiveness.
The aims of this study are to determine the types and severity of previously undiagnosed sleep deficiencies in otherwise healthy Somali Americans, apply a research framework to define psychosocial, behavioral, environmental, and biological mechanisms mediating sleep deficiencies in Somali Americans, and examine the relationship between sleep deficiencies and increased blood pressure in Somali Americans.
The CATCH cluster randomized trial will test the implementation and effectiveness outcomes of implementing and scaling up a team-based care strategy for blood pressure control in Colombia and Jamaica.
Portal hypertension contributed to the main complications of liver cirrhosis. Currently, hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) was the reference standard for evaluating portal pressure in patients with cirrhosis. However, the practice of HVPG is limited to require the extensive experience and highly specialized centers. In recent years, non-invasive methods were proposed to predict the degree of cirrhotic portal hypertension. Liver stiffness is currently the most widely used method for noninvasive assessment of portal hypertension. The renewing Baveno VII recommended that liver stiffness ≥ 25 kPa by transient elastography is sufficient to identify clinically significant portal hypertension (specificity and positive predictive value > 90%). Although liver stiffness has a good predictive value for evaluation of clinically significant portal hypertension, it is difficult to apply in primary hospitals due to expensive equipment. Recently, a multicenter study has shown that artificial intelligence analysis based on ocular images can aid to screening and diagnosis hepatobiliary diseases. The patented technology of collecting and analyzing diagnostic images of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) based on mobile phone terminals has been realized. This technology mainly includes image acquisition, quality control and analysis, and clinical information collection. Liver cirrhosis belongs to the diseases of bulging and accumulation in TCM, and the most common symptoms are the liver and gallbladder damp-heat and liver stagnation and spleen deficiency. The main contents of inspection diagnosis in TCM for liver disease include the images of the tongue, eye and palms. In our study, the patented technology of TCM based on artificial intelligence is applied to establish a precise evaluation model of traditional Chinese and western medicine for portal hypertension with cirrhosis by combining the macroscopic characteristics of images and microscopic pathological indicators.
This is a randomized, double-blind, two-treatment, single-period, parallel design, multiple dose at multiple clinical trial sites designed to demonstrate bioequivalence with clinical endpoint in subjects with chronic open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension in both eyes. Test Product - Bimatoprost ophthalmic solution, 0.01% of Amneal EU, Limited Reference Product - LUMIGAN® (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution) 0.01% of Allergan, Inc.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of Baduanjin on blood pressure in individuals with high normal blood pressure (SBP 130-139 mmHg, and/or DBP 85-89 mmHg), as well as on glucose and lipid metabolism, quality of life, psychology, exercise, immune inflammation, endothelial function, and arterial stiffness.
Sodium is an essential nutrient for humans, but excessive sodium consumption is causally associated with high blood pressure and increase risk of cardiovascular diseases. Dietary sodium consumption of greater than the recommended daily amount of 5 grams of salt or 2,000 mg of sodium is a major risk factor for CVD-related mortality. From recent national survey, Thai people had consumed more than 9.1 g of salt per day, which was nearly two times above WHO reference level. Dietary salt reduction was unsuccessful because of lacking awareness, and the higher threshold to detect salt taste in chronic high salt ingestion. To create awareness in the community, we should be educated, managed the environmental for salt reduction, and used salt meter to detect sodium content in daily food. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of intervention; education, reformulation, environmental change and used salt meter compared with standard treatment alone in terms of salt intake reduction and blood pressure.
This research is being done to learn if a smartphone app with and without a just in time adaptive intervention (JITAI) can help patients with hypertension manage their sodium intake and improve their blood pressure.
High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, affects nearly half of all Americans and increases the risk for heart disease and stroke. Only about half of people with high blood pressure have it under control. New methods to control blood pressure are needed to reduce heart attack and stroke rates. The purpose of this study is to test whether a digital program that includes personalized health coaching and remote patient monitoring with a connected blood pressure cuff, all delivered on a smartphone or website, can improve blood pressure control compared with usual care among patients with high blood pressure.
GoFreshRx is a randomized trial, testing the effects of a home-delivered DASH-patterned grocery intervention on blood pressure in Black adults actively treated for hypertension, residing in Boston area urban food deserts.
