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, …
Mineralocorticoid Receptor, Coronary Microvascular Function, and Cardiac Efficiency in Hypertension
The investigators' goal is to show that in hypertensive men and women with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) treatment with a mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonist, versus a thiazide-like diuretic, will improve coronary microvascular function and cardiac efficiency, which will associate with improvements in LV structure and function. The investigators will achieve …
Community-based Implementation of Adapted STAC
This study is being done to adapt the Staying Healthy After Childbirth (STAC) intervention for implementation among Black Women and Birthing Persons (WBP).
Morning Versus Bedtime Dosing of Antihypertensive Medication
Previous studies have shown that elevated nighttime blood pressure (BP) was more closely associated with cardiovascular mortality and morbidity than daytime and clinic BPs. With increasingly advanced technology, not only 24-hour ambulatory but also home BP monitors can be used to evaluate nighttime BP. The validation study of the Omron …
Examining the Circadian Timing Effects of the Hypotensive Response to Exercise
The goal of this study is to learn how exercise timing affects blood pressure in adults with elevated or high blood pressure. Exercise can influence the body's natural 24-hour rhythms, including blood pressure patterns. A single exercise session can lower blood pressure for up to 24 hours, but it is …
The Effect of MediYoga on Sleep Quality, Blood Pressure, and Quality of Life in Older Adults with Hypertension:
The goal of this Randomized Controlled Trial is to test if an intervention consisting of Yoga can increase quality of sleep and health related quality of life and decrease BP. Secondary to explore and describe the implementation of a yoga intervention and the participants' experiences and perspectives on the intervention …
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.
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 …
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 …
