Text Education About Cardiovascular Health and HIV (TEACH-HIV)
The overall objective is to evaluate the efficacy of educational text messages to reduce cardiovascular risk among persons living with HIV (PLWH).
Cholesterol and Inflammation Lowering Via Bempedoic Acid, an ACL-inhibiting Regimen in HIV Trial (CLEAR HIV Trial)
This is a randomized placebo-controlled study in treated and suppressed HIV-infected individuals aged ≥40 years with either known CVD or 1 CVD risk factor to study the effect of Bempedoic acid (BA) on safety, arterial inflammation as assessed by FDG-PET/CT, lipids, inflammation, immune activation, cardiometabolic indices, and non-calcified plaque (NCP) …
Emergency Medicine Cardiovascular Risk Assessment for Lipid Disorders Trial
Emergency Medicine Cardiovascular Risk Assessment for Lipid Disorders (EMERALD) is a protocolized intervention based on American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association and US Preventive Services Task Force guidelines designed to initiate preventive cardiovascular care for emergency department patients being evaluated for acute coronary syndrome. The overarching goals of this proposal …
Polygenic Risk-based Detection of Subclinical Coronary Atherosclerosis and Change in Cardiovascular Health
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to assess the impact of disclosing a high polygenic risk result for coronary artery disease on change in cardiovascular health over one year.
Fractional Flow Reserve-guided Stenting Versus Medical Therapy in Atherosclerosis Renal Artery Stenosis
Although randomized trials have demonstrated there is no benefit of renal-artery stenting in addition to medical therapy for patients with atherosclerosis renal artery stenosis, many patients indeed gained benefit in daily practices after stenting, such as reduction in blood pressure and recovery in renal functions. One important gap is that …
Real-Time Atherosclerosis Activity After Thoracic Radiotherapy Using Sodium Fluoride Positron Emission Tomography
The prospective single-arm pilot study, ATHERO-RT: Real-Time Atherosclerosis Activity after Thoracic Radiotherapy using Sodium Fluoride Positron Emission Tomography, will aim to: To deploy first-in-kind application of fluorine 18-sodium fluoride (18F-NaF) PET (Positron Emission Tomography) /MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) imaging to detect real-time atherosclerosis activity at the time of cancer diagnosis …
Effects of Switching From Cigarettes to Tobacco Heating System on Coronary Atherosclerosis Progression
Objective To evaluate the impact of heated versus combustion tobacco products on progression of atherosclerosis in patients with CAD unable(unwilling) to quit smoking. Rationale Despite the efforts to curb smoking and full awareness of its deleterious health impact, smoking remains a significant contributor to morbidity and mortality. Some health impact …
Test 2 Treat: Can we Improve the Testing and Treatment of High Cholesterol in Patients Who Have Been Hospitalized for a Cardiac Event by Providing Education to Doctors and Patients?
The goal of this implementation trial is to learn if providing education to doctors and patients who have had a heart event works to prevent future heart problems. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does educating the doctors in a health system improve how often patients in the …
Polygenic Risk-based Detection of Subclinical Coronary Atherosclerosis and Intervention With Statin and Colchicine
The goal of this double-blind randomized controlled trial is to determine how treatment with high intensity statin, low-dose colchicine, and their combination modulates progression and composition of coronary atherosclerosis in individuals with high polygenic risk for coronary artery disease.
Effects of a Healthy Nordic Diet on Atherosclerosis in Patients with Coronary Heart Disease
Diet can play a key role in atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease (CHD), but little interventional data exists, and the mediators of possible anti-atherosclerotic effects of diet are unclear. The investigators will investigate if a healthy Nordic diet (HND) reduces plaque volume, coronary artery calcification (CAC), and plaque inflammation (FAI) …
