Natural History of Noncirrhotic Portal Hypertension
Background: \- Noncirrhotic Portal Hypertension (NCPH) is caused by liver diseases that increase pressure in the blood vessels of the liver. It seems to start slowly and not have many warning signs. Many people may not even know that they have a liver disease. There are no specific treatments for …
Mobile Health Program for Rural Hypertension
Hypertension (HTN) is the leading modifiable cause of cardiovascular disease. Rural individuals experience challenges of the rural health divide: geographic distance from providers, social isolation, limited social resources, and high rates of low health literacy. This study evaluates a home-based blood pressure monitoring (HBPM) program that provides longitudinal health education, …
SHAPE of Portal Hypertension in Children
Early diagnosis of portal hypertension is difficult as symptoms rarely manifest until the later stages of liver disease. Both cirrhotic and non-cirrhotic portal hypertension can result in life-threatening complications, the most frequent of which is bleeding from esophageal varices. In children, variceal bleeds are associated with mortality rates of 1-3 …
LDA and LMWH vs LDA Alone in High-risk Patients for Preeclampsia Prevention
Preeclampsia is a major cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Low-dose aspirin started in the first trimester reduces the risk of preeclampsia in high-risk women. Low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) has shown potential benefits in addition to aspirin for preventing preeclampsia through its anticoagulant, anti-inflammatory, and endothelial …
Giessen Pulmonary Hypertension in Lung Cancer Registry
The aim of this study is to investigate the frequency and implications of pulmonary hypertension in lung cancer patients. To do so, data will be collected from all lung cancer patients at the university hospital Giessen. All data will be analyzed for possible hints of pulmonary hypertension as a comorbidity …
CPAP for the Treatment of Supine Hypertension
This study aims to learn about the effects of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on people with autonomic failure and high blood pressure when lying down (supine hypertension) to determine if it can be used to treat their high blood pressure during the night. CPAP (a widely used treatment for …
The Venous Distension Reflex and Orthostatic Hypertension
This research is being done to find out whether distension of veins in legs will cause a rise in blood pressure (orthostatic hypertension).
Spironolactone to Improve Pregnancy-Associated Hypertension Trajectories
The hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (preeclampsia and gestational hypertension) are associated with increased long-term maternal risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Recent evidence suggests that activation of the mineralocorticoid receptor promotes ongoing susceptibility to hypertension in women following hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. In addition, women with overweight/obesity are at increased risk …
Hypertension and Cerebrovascular Hemodynamics in General Anaesthesia
During anesthesia, blood pressure-raising medications are often required to achieve an adequate blood pressure level. However, there is limited knowledge about what constitutes an adequate blood pressure to ensure sufficient blood flow to the brain. This project aims to map the relationship between blood pressure and brain blood flow using …
Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension After Pulmonary Embolism
to detect the incidence of CTEPH patients. Primary outcome To predict CETHP in symptomatic patients after pulmonary embolism episode. Secondary outcome: On Echocardiography revealed RV dysfunction which are peak TR Velocity , the RV/LV basal diameter ratio, flattening of the IVS, RV acceleration time and/or midsystolic notching, IVC diameter with …
