Addressing Barriers to Achieving Cardiometabolic Disorders Prevention and Treatment Goals for PLWH in the SE US
This study has 3 aims. Aim 1: Identify social determinants of cardiometabolic health and determine facilitators and modifiable barriers in achieving treatment goals. Aim 2: Assess PLWH knowledge, skills, and confidence for self-management of cardiometabolic disorders. Aim 3: Tailor a self-management support and education intervention with stakeholder input to address …
Evaluation of High Dose Prednisolone Pharmacokinetics in the Acute and Chronic Setting
This is a pilot study to investigate serum prednisolone profiles in: Patients on high doses of prednisolone for any inflammatory disorder, both in the acute and chronic setting. Patients stepping up from or down to prednisolone therapy in association with a course of high dose methyl-prednisolone or dexamethasone. The study …
AOrtic Surgery: Systemic Inflammatory Response Versus Sepsis
The goal of the prospective observational study is to evaluate the immunological background of inflammatory response often seen after open thoracic aortic surgery. Patients scheduled for this type of procedure will undergo a series of blood testing (preoperatively, and several times postoperatively). The blood samples will be used for a …
Coronary Flow and Myocardial Viability: the FloVITA Study
Evaluation of fractional flow reserve (FFR) is a key method for assessing ischemia with a view to guiding revascularization strategy following acute coronary syndrome. A stenosis that appears to be severe by angiography may cause limited ischemia (with an FFR value >0.80) due to the incapacity of the necrotic zone …
Mechanisms for Atrial Fibrillation in Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common rhythm disorder and involves an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and death, impaired quality of life and a high proportion of healthcare consumption. An important risk factor is obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, it is not fully understood why OSA induces AF. It …
MEMRI and Kidney Disease
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common and costly.1 Although patients who suffer an episode of AKI may recover, many will go on to develop cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Cardiovascular disease is an important complication of AKI.2 Similar to AKI, CKD and kidney transplantation and kidney donation associations …
Imaging the Pathogenesis of Cerebral Small Vessel Disease
Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) can lead to vascular cognitive impairment and dementia (VCID). The hallmark of CSVD is the appearance and progression of white matter hyperintensities (WMH) on MRI. The goal of this study it to recruit and follow individuals at risk for WMH progression and use serial MRI …
Clinical Transcriptomics in Systemic Vasculitis (CUTIS)
Multi-center observational study to evaluate the histopathology and transcriptome of cutaneous lesions in patients with several different types of vasculitis.
KIdney aNd blooD prESsure ouTcomes in Childhood Cancer Survivors (CCS)
Background: Childhood cancer survivors (CCS) are at elevated risk of chronic health conditions. Chemotherapies can cause recurrent acute kidney injury which may progress to kidney fibrosis, chronic kidney disease (CKD) or hypertension (HTN). CCS surviving to adulthood are at ≥3 times the risk (vs. non-CCS) for CKD, HTN and lower …
Advances in Telephone-based Cognitive Screening Procedures
Background Cognitive screening procedures via performance-based tests represent an essential, albeit preliminary, element within the diagnostic and interventional process as addressed to patients with chronic neurological disorders. Furthermore, in these populations, cognitive screening measures are often employed as outcomes in epidemiological settings, as well as endpoints in clinical trials. Therefore, …
