A Prospective Longitudinal Observational Cohort Study of Pregnant Women Residing at High Altitude in Bolivia
In this study, the investigators will follow two small cohorts of pregnant women: a cohort of healthy women with uncomplicated pregnancies residing at high altitude, a control group of healthy women with uncomplicated pregnancies residing at sea level, to characterize differences in cardiopulmonary adaptation and nitric oxide (NO) pathway expression …
Micro-doses of Physical Activity for COPD
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a disease of the lungs that makes it hard for people to breath. Those with COPD spend considerably more time sitting and lying and less time performing physical activity than healthy individuals. Those who are the most sedentary have a greater risk of heart …
Sisters of Heart (Hermanas de Corazón): A Community Health Worker Initiative for Improving Heart Health in Migrant Farmworker Women
The goal of this hybrid Type 1 effectiveness-implementation trial is to test the extent to which a peer support and community resource navigation intervention improves psychological well-being, addresses social determinants of health and thus reduces cardiometabolic risk among rural, migrant, low-income farmworker women aged 18-45 years. The main questions it …
Pulmonary Vein Isolation (PVI) Combined With Renal Denervation (RDN) in Atrial Fibrillation (AF) and Hypertension (HTN)
The close relationship between the increase of sympathetic tension, AF, and HTN cannot be ignored. In addition, the significant failure rate of PVI (20-50%) in the treatment of AF makes it very necessary to explore the effect of RDN on AF. Therefore, this study aims to compare the effects and …
EFFECT OF A SUBSTANCE P ANTAGONIST ON THE SECRETION OF ALDOSTERONE IN PATIENTS WITH OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA SYNDROME AND ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is associated with hyperaldosteronism with elevated plasma aldosterone/renin ratio, the physiopathological mechanism of which remains uncertain. This hyperaldosteronism contributes to the development of arterial hypertension and cardiovascular complications observed in patients with OSA, in particular by increasing arterial stiffness and heart rate variability. The frequent …
A Cardiometabolic Health Program Linked With Clinical-Community Support and Mobile Health Telemonitoring to Reduce Health Disparities
The LINKED- HEARTS Program is a multi-level project that intervenes at the practice level by linking home blood pressure monitoring (HBPM) with a telemonitoring platform (Sphygmo). The program incorporates team-based care by including community health workers (CHWs) and pharmacists to improve the outcomes of multiple chronic conditions (reduced blood pressure …
Culturally Adapted Dietary Clinical Trial in PR
This project will determine whether a diet culturally adapted to adults in Puerto Rico can effectively decrease cardiometabolic risk factors. This will help define a culturally-appropriate, feasible, and sustainable diet intervention aimed at reducing cardiovascular, type 2 diabetes, and obesity outcomes.
Remote Fetal Monitoring in High Risk Pregnancies
Antenatal nonstress tests (NSTs) are performed to assess fetal health and are used as a cost-effective test that can be widely administered. However, an NST is operator-dependent due to the nature of Doppler ultrasound and is primarily performed in a clinic and hospital setting. The ability to conduct a clinically …
Preventative Screening and Health Coaching in a Food Insecure Population
The goal of this longitudinal study is to investigate the role of virtual health coaching on mitigation of cardiometabolic disease risk in an underserved, food insecure population. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does longitudinal, individualized health coaching directed at lifestyle modification reduce patient 10-year risk of heart …
PET Image in PAH Patients
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is mortal disease affecting the blood vessels of the lung. Despite its morbid prognosis, PAH is often misdiagnosed or ignored, with an average time of 44 months between onset of symptoms to diagnosis and substantial progression of disease severity. Therefore, a pressing need exists to develop …
