Polygenic Risk Score Implementation and Stratification for Managing Blood Pressure
In a multi-ethnic population, a genome-wide polygenic risk score (PRS) for systolic blood pressure (SBP), incorporating over one million common genetic variants, predicts blood pressure (BP) traits and the risk of adverse cardiovascular events beyond traditional risk factors. Delivering SBP PRS information to young and middle-aged adults with hypertension (HTN) …
Ketone Ester And Salt (KEAS) in Older Adults
Most Americans consume excess dietary salt based on the recommendations set by the American Heart Association and Dietary Guidelines for Americans. High dietary salt impairs blood pressure control by affecting systemic blood vessels and the kidneys. These changes contribute to excess salt consumption being associated with increased risk for chronic …
Effect of Bariatric Surgery on Cardiac Function in Patients With Hypertension
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of bariatric surgery on cardiac function assessed by echocardiography in patients with hypertension.
Steroids-Based Screening for Primary Aldosteronism
This prospective, single-center observational study aims to evaluate whether a steroid-based screening method can more accurately identify Primary Aldosteronism (PA) in hypertensive patients who remain on their usual antihypertensive medications, compared with the conventional aldosterone-to-renin ratio (ARR). PA is a common, potentially curable subtype of secondary hypertension that carries increased …
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 …
Conical Forearm and Cylindrical Upper Arm Non-Invasive Blood Pressure (NIBP) Measurements in Pregnant Patients
The diagnosis of hypertensive disease during pregnancy is predicated on strict blood pressure thresholds: 140/90 on at least two occasions measured four hours apart for both gestational hypertension and preeclampsia. An improvement in diagnostic accuracy of even 5mm Hg would be significant, as reflected by the US Association for the …
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 …
Overnight Dexamethasone in Primary Aldosteronism Screening
The goal of this observational study is to learn whether screening for primary aldosteronism can be improved among patients on chronic blood pressure-lowering medications by ordering intake of 1 mg of dexamethasone prior to hormonal examinations. Primary aldosteronism is a condition, in which an adrenal gland steroid aldosterone is released …
Optic Nerve Sheath Ultrasound in Giant Cell Arteritis
The Sonographic Assessment of the Optic Nerve Sheath in Giant Cell Arteritis (SONIC-GCA) study will evaluate the performance of the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD), measured via ultrasound, to diagnose and monitor GCA. SONIC-GCA builds upon our previous pilot studies and will answer the following questions: What is the performance …
The Effects of Dietary Nitrate in Patients With Hypertensive Kidney Injury
The study aims to study the effects of diatery nitrate in patients with hypertension and hypertensive kidney injury. The study is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded crossover trial. 14-20 patients with hypertension and CKD I-III will be randomized to receive either nitrate or placebo delivered in the form of beetroot juice. …
