The aim of the study is to provide information on the interaction between socioeconomic factors, daily physical activity, nutrition and lifestyle on loss of muscle mass and muscle function in patients with heart failure.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate prospectively the safety and performance of the MOBYBOX System in the veno-arterial configuration in patients with cardiorespiratory failure or in the veno-venous configuration in patients with severe respiratory failure.
This study is testing a lab-made antibody called ePGT121v1-LS that targets a specific part of HIV. Researchers will give it by vein (IV) and under the skin (SC), both on its own and together with two other antibodies, VRC07-523LS and PGDM1400LS, which target different parts of the virus. They will …
This study aims to discover circulating microRNAs (associated with drug doses and levels) that can be used to characterize the overall immune state in pediatric heart transplant patients and predict patients that will go on to develop infection and rejection. MicroRNAs (miRs) are small, non-coding RNA molecules that regulate gene …
Heart disease is the leading cause of death globally, accounting for 16% of the world's total deaths. The number of cases is expected to increase as our population ages. Heart disease also results in large economic burden. It costs the United States about $219 billion per year. Some patients have …
The main purpose of this study is to determine whether differences in myocardial reserve predict clinical outcomes for heart failure patients.
This study aims to determine whether a 6-month multilevel intervention involving problem-solving training, exercise training and support from community health workers is more effective in improving outcomes for individuals with low socioeconomic status, type 2 diabetes, obesity, and early cardiac dysfunction than receiving education and access to a community exercise …
Preliminary data suggests that patients suffering from advanced refractory heart failure (HF) could benefit from single low dose whole heart external beam radiotherapy (EBRT). Objective: To explore in our center the efficacy of administering a EBRT treatment of 5Gy to the whole heart in patients with advanced and refractory HF. …
Imagine having heart failure, a condition where the heart struggles to pump blood, making daily life hard. People with heart failure often don't feel well and end up going to the hospital a lot. Many of these people could feel better with extra help, but there aren't many programs that …
Heart failure is a chronic condition that causes congestion and frequent hospitalizations. Diuretic doses are usually adjusted based on clinical judgment without an objective measure of response. This study will test the feasibility of using point-of-care urine sodium measurements to guide up-titration or down-titration of loop diuretics in ambulatory patients …
