Delivering Food Resources & Kitchen Skills (FoRKS) to Adults With Food Insecurity and Hypertension
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the impact of a home-delivered foods and kitchen skills program on health and nutrition in adults with high blood pressure and food insecurity. Researchers will compare Food Resources & Kitchen Skills (FoRKS) and Enhanced Usual Care (EUC) to evaluate the effects …
Hydrocortisone Therapy Optimization During Hypothermia Treatment in Asphyxiated Neonates
This is a prospective, single center, pharmacokinetic study of intravenous hydrocortisone therapy for systemic low blood pressure during hypothermia treatment in asphyxiated newborns. Patients will be allocated to hydrocortisone supplementation while receiving conventional inotropic therapy as needed. The hypothesis is that a detailed study of hydrocortisone pharmacokinetics during therapeutic hypothermia …
Inspiratory Muscle Strength Training for Lowering Blood Pressure and Improving Endothelial Function in Postmenopausal Women: Comparison With "Standard of Care" Aerobic Exercise
High blood pressure (BP) is the major modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and related health conditions, particularly among postmenopausal (PM) women. In adults age ≥50 years this risk is primarily driven by above-normal systolic BP (SBP ≥120 mmHg), as diastolic BP plateaus, then decreases in older adulthood. Although …
Effect of Dapagliflozin on Microvascular Function in Women With Symptoms of Coronary Artery Disease
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effects of a drug (in the drug class called sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors) in women who have symptoms of ischemic heart disease. The main questions the study aims to answer are: Does blood flow in the heart improve with study …
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Imaging of Cholesterol Trafficking: Clinical Evaluation of [18F]FNP-59 in Normal Human Subjects (Groups 2, 3 & 4)
This study will evaluate the feasibility of using a sub-therapeutic dose of a fluorine-18 analogue of NP-59 ([18F]FNP-59) to image the adrenal gland. Some participants are healthy normal subjects but have undergone interventions to manipulate hormones while other participants have known adrenal pathology.
OPtimizing Technology to Improve Medication Adherence and BP Control (OPTIMA-BP)
Hypertension (HTN) has a greater impact on African Americans (AA) than any other U.S. racial group. Uncontrolled blood pressure (BP) contributes to higher rates of disability, death, and health resource use among AA. HTN is the single most influential risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), as well as a risk …
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Imaging of Cholesterol Trafficking: Clinical Evaluation of [18F]FNP-59 in Normal Human Subjects (Group 1)
This exploratory, first-in-man, phase 0 study will evaluate the feasibility of using a sub-therapeutic dose of a fluorine-18 analogue of NP-59 ([18F]FNP-59) to image the adrenal gland in healthy normal subjects. The researchers believe that [18F]FNP-59 would greatly improve the imaging characteristics, by providing a PET imaging cholesterol analogue with …
The Effect of Two Different Doses of Noradrenaline on Hypotension Caused by Spinal Anesthesia for Cesarean Section
To compare two infusion rates of norepinephrine for prophylaxis against post-spinal hypotension during caesarean delivery.
Effectiveness of Inspiratory Muscle Training for People with Ischemic Heart Disease Revascularized by Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty.
Myocardial Ischemia (MI) consists of the narrowing of the internal lumen of the arteries that perfuse the heart. As the section of the artery decreases, so does the blood flow and therefore the supply of oxygen to the myocardium, which can cause angina pectoris or even an acute myocardial infarction. …
Blood Pressure Following Isometric Exercise in Inactive Adults
This study investigates how isometric exercise training (IET) affects blood pressure in physically inactive adults. Isometric exercise involves sustained muscle contractions without movement-for example, pushing against a fixed object. Previous research has shown that IET may help reduce blood pressure, but the mechanisms involved are not fully understood. The purpose …
