Sympathetic Mechanisms in Obesity-Crossover Design
We will study obese hypertensive subjects in a randomized, crossover study to determine if two weeks sympathetic blockade improves endogenous glucose production. Subjects will be studied on 3 different occasions after two weeks of receiving either placebo, amlodipine (vasodilator arm) or moxonidine (study arm). The order of the studies will …
Effect of Sacubitril/Valsartan on Cardiac Function in Hypertensive Patients Stratified by BMI: A Real World Study
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of sacubitril/valsartan on cardiac function assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) in hypertensive patients stratified by BMI.
Sympathetic Transduction in Obesity-associated Hypertension (OB-HTN)
The purpose of this study is to understand how the nervous system communicates to blood vessels to increase blood pressure during stress. The study will also investigate how hypertension and obesity influence the nervous system and vascular function. The study will involve measuring sympathetic nervous system activity and blood flow …
OneSTOP (One-Stop Telehealth Obesity Program) for Multidisciplinary Weight Management and Related Comorbidities
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the use of a care model including teleconsults and the EMPOWER app can induce clinically significant weight loss and metabolic improvements in obese adults with diabetes and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Researchers will compare this model with the …
Cardiovascular Effects of Angiotensin-(1-7) in Obesity Hypertension
Obesity is a global health concern that is associated with high blood pressure and an increased risk for developing cardiovascular disease. The purpose of this study is to find out if the investigational drug angiotensin-(1-7) can improve cardiovascular health in people with obesity and high blood pressure.
Intranasal Dexmedetomidine on Blood Pressure in Elderly Hypertensive Patients Undergoing Cataract Surgery
Cataract surgery in elderly patients with controlled hypertension carries a risk of hemodynamic instability, particularly fluctuations in mean arterial blood pressure (MAP). Dexmedetomidine, a selective α2-adrenergic agonist, offers hemodynamic stabilization and sedation when administered intranasally and provides a simple and non-invasive premedication option. This study evaluates the effects of intranasal …
InTake Care: Development and Validation of an Innovative, Personalized Digital Health Solution for Medication Adherence Support in Cardiovascular Prevention
Inadequate medication adherence (MA) in chronic conditions, including cardiovascular prevention, represents an important risk factor. The use of new IT technologies in this setting is supposed to be useful to improve patients' adherence, but currently available solutions have significant limitations, including lack of personalization and reliance on expensive ad hoc …
Study on Blood Pressure Variability and Frailty in the Older People
Observational prospective single-center, non-profit study. Primary objective of the study: To determine if the hypotensive phenotype, defined as one episode of daytime systolic blood pressure (SBP) \<90 mmHg (or two episodes of daytime SBP \<90 mmHg, if mean 24 h SBP is \<125 mmHg) detected at Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring …
Impact of Sex in the Effect of Dietary Capsaicin on Cardiovascular Health
The investigators long-term goal is to better understand novel interventions to promote cardiovascular health in humans. The goal of the proposed research is to investigate whether there is sex-specificity in the effects of dietary capsaicin on mechanisms regulating nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability, its effect on key markers of cardiovascular (CV) …
Improving Hypertension Control in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a autoimmune disease associated with an increased risk of developing coronary artery disease (CAD) and premature death,. Traditional CAD risk factors like hypertension (HTN) are both very common and poorly controlled among RA patients. Patients with RA face significant challenges in controlling HTN. The goal of …
