Nicotinamide Riboside for Treating Elevated Systolic Blood Pressure and Arterial Stiffness in Middle-aged and Older Adults
Aging is the primary risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVD), the number one cause of death in developed societies. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) increase with age and is a key intermediary factor linking aging to increased CVD risk. The primary mechanisms underlying the age-associated increase in SBP is stiffening of …
Exercise Training Influences Gut Microbiota and Cardiovascular Health Through Inflammation Control in Adult Hypertensive Population: the MicroFit Study
Cardiovascular diseases are the number 1 cause of death globally, taking an estimated 17.9 million lives each year (31% of deaths worldwide). Hypertension, with 1.13 billion people affected worldwide, is the leading risk factor for global mortality. Physical inactivity is among the modifiable cardiovascular risk factors. While the beneficial effects …
Sympathetic Mechanisms in Obesity-Crossover Design
We will study obese hypertensive subjects in a randomized, crossover study to determine if two weeks sympathetic blockade improves endogenous glucose production. Subjects will be studied on 3 different occasions after two weeks of receiving either placebo, amlodipine (vasodilator arm) or moxonidine (study arm). The order of the studies will …
Sympathetic Transduction in Obesity-associated Hypertension (OB-HTN)
The purpose of this study is to understand how the nervous system communicates to blood vessels to increase blood pressure during stress. The study will also investigate how hypertension and obesity influence the nervous system and vascular function. The study will involve measuring sympathetic nervous system activity and blood flow …
Safety and Efficacy of Treprostinil (Remodulin®) In Reducing Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury During Kidney Transplantation
The objectives of this study are to test the preliminary safety and efficacy of a two-day peri-operative course of treprostinil in reducing ischemia-reperfusion injury in adult patients receiving a deceased donor kidney transplantation. Treprostinil, a prostacyclin analog, is expected to facilitate the restoration of blood supply to the revascularized kidney …
Melatonin Effects on Cardiovascular Disease Mechanisms in the Menopause Transition: A Randomized Clinical Trial
The purpose of this research is to study the effects of 12 weeks of melatonin supplementation compared to placebo in women who are in the menopause transition (perimenopause) and have high blood pressure.
The Effect of HPI to Reduce Intraoperative Hypotension in Caesarean Sections
During caesarean section, blood pressure variations especially a reduction in blood pressure (or hypotension) can bring harmful effects to mother and baby. This usually occurs after spinal anaesthesia is administered. Usually, the anaesthetist will treat hypotension as it occurs. However, a new medical device is now available to predict hypotension. …
Improving Hypertension Control in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a autoimmune disease associated with an increased risk of developing coronary artery disease (CAD) and premature death,. Traditional CAD risk factors like hypertension (HTN) are both very common and poorly controlled among RA patients. Patients with RA face significant challenges in controlling HTN. The goal of …
Effect of Heated Water-Based Versus Land-Based Exercise Training on Hemodynamic Variables, Functional Capacity and Quality of Life in Older Hypertensive
BACKGROUND: Physical exercise promotion is one of the main global goals of innumerous health and medical societies for preventing and managing noncommunicable chronic diseases (NCDs), being one of the main therapeutic for the patient with hypertension. Exercise in heated swimming pool has emerged as a potential alternative to physical exercise …
OneSTOP (One-Stop Telehealth Obesity Program) for Multidisciplinary Weight Management and Related Comorbidities
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the use of a care model including teleconsults and the EMPOWER app can induce clinically significant weight loss and metabolic improvements in obese adults with diabetes and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Researchers will compare this model with the …
