Prescription of Step Counts for Targeted Changes in Body Composition and Cardiometabolic Risk in Overweight/Obese Adults
The prevalence of overweight and obesity remains epidemic in the United States, with some of the highest rates seen in older adults. While this phenomenon is certainly multifactorial, a good deal of evidence suggests that insufficient physical activity (PA) contributes significantly. Pilot data recently collected in a laboratory indicates a …
Telemedical Algorithm-Supported Care for Hypertension
Hypertension is a major global health issue, affecting around 9 million people in Poland. While some studies indicate that telemonitoring benefits patients with hypertension, there is a lack of research evaluating tools that assist doctors in managing these patients. The objective of this study is to assess a blood pressure …
Therapeutic Mechanisms of Epidural Spinal Cord Stimulation
The purpose of this study in patients undergoing routine care epidural spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is to determine 1) whether SCS reduces arterial blood pressure (BP) in patients which chronic low back pain and hypertension, 2) whether higher baseline BP (i.e., hypertension) predicts reductions in pain following SCS, and finally …
Metabolic Effects of Angiotensin-(1-7)
The overall purpose of this study is to learn more about the metabolic effects of angiotensin-(1-7) in the insulin resistant state associated with obesity. Pharmacologic approaches to increase angiotensin-(1-7) levels or its actions are currently in development for treatment of metabolic-related diseases such as obesity and type II diabetes, based …
Community-based Approach to Lowering Stress Through Mindfulness
The goal of this clinical trial is to test a culturally adapted mindfulness-based stress reduction intervention in a community setting for African American adults with high blood pressure (hypertension) and depression. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does participation in a culturally adapted mindfulness-based intervention improve depressive symptoms? …
Empowerment and Mobile Technology in the Control of Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Patients With Ischemic Stroke
The CARDIOSTROKE is a randomized trial comparing mobile-device assisted control of hypertension together with screening of occult atrial fibrillation to standard care in patients with recent ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack.
Project 2: ACHIEVE- HF
This project is part of the ACHIEVE GREATER (Addressing Cardiometabolic Health In Populations Through Early PreVEntion in the GREAT LakEs Region) Center (IRB 100221MP2A), the purpose of which is to reduce cardiometabolic health disparities in two cities: Detroit, Michigan, and Cleveland, Ohio. The ACHIEVE GREATER Center involves four separate but …
Autonomic Regulation of Blood Pressure in Premature and Early Menopausal Women
This is a cross-sectional study in which the investigators will determine the impact of premature/early menopause on MSNA, BP and baroreflex sensitivity in younger (≤49 yr old) and older (≥50 yr old) women. Specifically, aim one will determine mechanisms driving autonomic dysregulation of BP in premature and early menopausal women …
Secondhand Tobacco Smoke and Cardiovascular Disease
This is a double-blind randomized placebo-controlled crossover clinical trial of efficacy and safety of an FDA-approved angiotensin receptor blocker (losartan) to improve cardiopulmonary outcomes in individuals with pre-Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) due to prolonged exposure to secondhand tobacco smoke.
Safety and Efficacy of Ultrasound Renal Denervation in Kidney Transplantation Patients With Uncontrolled Hypertension
This prospective, single-arm, interventional study is designed to assess the short-term and long-term safety and efficacy of bilateral ultrasound renal sympathetic denervation (RDN) of the native kidneys in renal transplant patients with uncontrolled hypertension. Objectives To assess the short-term and long-term changes in ambulatory and office blood pressure (BP) following …
