Efficacy of Carbohydrate Loading in Diabetic Type 2 Patients Undergoing CABG Surgery on CPB
Enhanced recovery after surgery protocols aim to optimize perioperative care and improve surgical outcomes. Preoperative carbohydrate loading has demonstrated benefits in reducing insulin resistance and improving patient outcomes. While non-diabetic patients benefit from this approach, its efficacy in diabetic type 2 patients undergoing CABG remains less understood. This study aims …
Results of the Use of Two Stentrievers Simultaneosly Compared With One as a Primary Treatment in Acute Ischemic Stroke
Several studies have demonstrated that simultaneous treatment with two stentrievers (STs) as rescue treatment is very effective, with high recanalization rates even in this group of patients where other revascularization techniques have failed. There has been no observed increase in hemorrhagic complications. Recently, a prospective study has been published where …
Vascular Mechanisms, Functional Outcomes, & Exercise Among Persons With Multiple Sclerosis With Hypertension
The goal of this study is to determine if 12 weeks of cycling exercise training at home will improve three parameters: 1) blood pressure, 2) cognition, and 3) walking ability among persons with multiple sclerosis who have high blood pressure, when compared to a group that engages in a 12-week …
Impact of Intensive Treatment of SBP on Brain Perfusion, Amyloid, and Tau (IPAT Study)
The purpose of this study is to determine if intensive lowering of systolic blood pressure (SBP), using FDA approved medications (antihypertensive), reduces Alzheimer's Disease pathology (i.e., excessive brain amyloid and tau protein deposition) in older adults at high risk for memory decline or dementia.
The Path to Optimal Black Maternal Heart Health: Comparing Two CVD Risk Reduction Interventions (Change of HEART)
The overarching goal of our proposal is to reduce disparities in perinatal cardiovascular disease risk factors among Black women utilizing a community-driven, social ecological framework.
bpMedManage: Digital Technology to Support Adherence to Hypertension Medications
The purpose of the bpMedManage study is to rigorously test the efficacy of a smartphone technology to help improve high blood pressure medication adherence among older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in a 16-week randomized controlled trial. A total of 100 older adults will be recruited. There will be …
Transverse Versus Longitudinal Groin Incision in Vascular Surgery
The purpose of the study is to examine whether incision type has an influence on the development of groin wound complications after operation in the groin in vascular surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does a transverse incision in the groin lead to fewer surgical site complications …
Copenhagen Mesenteric Stent Study - A Randomized Trial of Stent Versus Covered Stent Treatment for Chronic Mesenteric Ischemia
Chronic mesenteric ischemia (CMI) is often caused by narrowings in the arteries providing blood to the intestines. Endovascular stent placement is considered the preferred treatment for this condition. Guidelines increasingly support the use of so called covered stents (CS) in stead of bare stents (BMS) for this use but the …
Medication Adherence Program
Randomized controlled trial testing the efficacy of the Supporting Tailored Adaptive change and Reinforcement for Medication Adherence Program (STAR-MAP), a health coaching approach that aims to improve antihypertensive medication adherence, blood pressure control, and quality of life. Participants (n=402) >=50 years old with a diagnosis of hypertension, uncontrolled blood pressure, …
Addressing Medication Non-adherence in Patients With Poorly Controlled Hypertension Using Urine Mass Spectrometry
Hypertension is the single largest contributor to cardiovascular disease and death. While adequate control of hypertension reduces risk of disease, many patients have uncontrolled hypertension. This is often due to medication non-adherence. Left undetected, patients are prescribed additional medications, and referred to multiple specialists for investigations - leading to increased …
