Imaging the Pathogenesis of Cerebral Small Vessel Disease
Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) can lead to vascular cognitive impairment and dementia (VCID). The hallmark of CSVD is the appearance and progression of white matter hyperintensities (WMH) on MRI. The goal of this study it to recruit and follow individuals at risk for WMH progression and use serial MRI …
KIdney aNd blooD prESsure ouTcomes in Childhood Cancer Survivors (CCS)
Background: Childhood cancer survivors (CCS) are at elevated risk of chronic health conditions. Chemotherapies can cause recurrent acute kidney injury which may progress to kidney fibrosis, chronic kidney disease (CKD) or hypertension (HTN). CCS surviving to adulthood are at ≥3 times the risk (vs. non-CCS) for CKD, HTN and lower …
Multi-marker Approach for Risk Assessment in PAH
Prospective registry including incident patients and prevalent patients which pretends to identify clinical characteristics, treatment trends in-hospital and ten years follow-up outcome through major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in a China population with well characterized PAH.
PulmonAry hyperteNsion DiagnOsis: a National cohoRt reseArch
Understanding Delays in the Diagnosis of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension and Rare Diseases in Brazil: A Multicenter Observational Study --- Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare, progressive, and life-threatening disease that affects the arteries of the lungs and the right side of the heart. Early diagnosis is essential to initiate …
Myocardial Work Evaluation in Patients With PAH
Right ventricular function is a key determinant of survival in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension, with right heart failure being the leading cause of death. ERS/ESC guidelines recommend evaluating RV function at diagnosis and at first reevaluation under treatment to estimate the one-year mortality risk. However, few RV function markers …
Arlington Longitudinal Optimal Healthy Aging Study (ALOHA)
The Arlington Longitudinal Optimal Healthy Aging (ALOHA) Study is a community-based research project led by the Marymount University Center for Optimal Aging (MCOA). The study is designed to help older adults in the Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) area maintain independence, mobility, wellbeing and brain health as they age. …
Quantifying 18kDa TSPO Expression in the Lung in Pulmonary Artery Hypertension (PAH)
The aim of this study is to determine whether there is an increase in the TSPO PET signal (measured with the radioligand [11C]PBR28) in the lungs of patients living with PAH relative to age matched controls. If so, TSPO PET may be a useful technique to non-invasively monitor response to …
Validation of a Machine Learning Predictive Model to Distinguish Post-capillary Pulmonary Hypertension
In this study the diagnostic accuracy of a diagnostic tool for the diagnosis of post-capillary pulmonary hypertension will be investigated. The diagnostic tool was designed based on artificial intelligence, using machine learning on a database of 344 patients with group 1 or group 2 pulmonary hypertension. The tool uses 20 …
PROOF OF CONCEPT STUDY ON THE EFFICACY OF INHALATORY TARGETED IMATINIB NANOFORMULATIONS IN PULMONARY HYPERTENSION AND POST-INFLAMMATORY FIBROSIS.
The PROMPTLY study is a proof-of-concept research project evaluating the efficacy of XHALIP, an innovative inhalable formulation of Imatinib, in treating pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and post-inflammatory fibrosing lung diseases (LFD). Main Objective To demonstrate the ability of XHALIP to improve the prognosis of PAH and LFD by reducing pulmonary …
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 …
