Filter by:Stroke survivors frequently suffer disabilities including motor and cognitive problems, impairments in speech and vision, depression, and several other disabilities that worsen their quality of life. Some will recover fully after stroke and others will have permanent impairments. Few studies show trajectories of recovery in different domains after stroke, hence recovery time-lines are not fully known. Also, the whole range of mechanisms leading to recovery are not precisely known (1). To monitor those mechanisms one can utilize biomarkers. In parallel to the studies of recovery, studies on time series of biomarkers after stroke are limited (2). Hence, a crucial first step to increase knowledge on biomarkers of stroke recovery is to gain a better understanding of the time course of both stroke recovery and biomarker patterns. Biomarkers can later be used for outcome predictions after stroke.
The study aimed to evaluate the association between the obesity grade and the age of the first acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The effect of cardiovascular (CV) risk factors and the age of first ACS in patients with severe obesity was also examined. Consecutive patients with diagnosis of first episode of ACS were prospectively enrolled in 2014 to 2024.Cardiovascular risks of patients will be determined according to clinical and laboratory evaluation and patients were categorized by their body mass indices (BMI). Independent variables that effected the age of first ACS were examined by linear regression analysis
Tongji-Ezhou study (TJEZ) is a prospective cohort study launched at 2013 in EZhou city, Hubei province, with the goal of recruiting and assessing 10,000 individuals and then following them for at least 2 decades. In addition, blood samples would be collected every 3-5 years among 6000 of them to investigate the nutritional biomarkers and potential determinants of chronic diseases such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and cardiovascular disease.
To examine the impact of health determinants at the individual (e.g. health related behaviors) and societal level (e.g. environmental factors, health related policy, quality of health systems) on health outcomes (e.g. death, non-communicable disease development) across a range of socioeconomic and health resource settings. Additional components of this study will examine genetic factors for non-communicable diseases. This will be examined both through a cross sectional component, and prospectively (cohort component).
Prospective study. Starting from 2014 all newly appointed 1st year cadets in Naval Academies will be enrolled until the class of 2025. Physical examination, food frequency questionnaire, physical activity questionnaire, anxiety/depression questionnaire, medical history will be filled out at first interview. Specific blood tests will be performed. Every participant will be interviewed every three years and will complete the same questionnaires. Follow up period is determined ten years after last class enrollment
This is an prospective study conducted in a Chinese heart failure population. The study investigates the effects of cardiovascular disease risk factors such as lifestyle behaviors,biomarkers and intermediate diseases on heart failure prognosis.
