Cardiovascular Effects of Angiotensin-(1-7) in Obesity Hypertension
Obesity is a global health concern that is associated with high blood pressure and an increased risk for developing cardiovascular disease. The purpose of this study is to find out if the investigational drug angiotensin-(1-7) can improve cardiovascular health in people with obesity and high blood pressure.
Verifying Remote Monitoring Effect on Net Cardiovascular Outcome; RemoteVerify (RêVe)
This study investigates the impact and safety of wireless monitoring on the prognosis of heart failure patients with implanted pacemakers and defibrillators. It aims to examine the frequency of unplanned early hospital visits and the early diagnosis/intervention of disease exacerbation based on the presence or absence of wireless monitoring. Additionally, …
Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Coeliac Disease: a Series of Studies
This investigation examines the most important cardiovascular risk factors (e.g., metabolic parameters, body composition) and their changes in coeliac disease. The series of studies allow to assess body composition and cardiovascular risk-related metabolic parameters of newly diagnosed and treated coeliac patients in their complexity and to test if they change …
Plant Sterols on Cardiovascular Markers, Microbiota and Sterol Metabolism (Cardiofoodsterol)
Potential cholesterol-lowering effect of a regular intake of a plant sterol (PS)-containing food supplement, in overweight/obese type 1 or 2, normoglycemic/pre-diabetic, with LDL-cholesterol values > 115 mg/dl and not pharmacologically treated participants treated with the PS-containing food supplement or placebo supplement.
Inflammation REduction to Prevent cArdiovascular Injury in Renal Disease (REPAIR)
Phase 1 basket trial including 2 open-label single-arm cohorts: REPAIR CKD cohort and REPAIR Dialysis cohort. Open label colchicine 0.3 mg daily for 8 weeks followed, in patients who tolerated the 0.3 mg dose, by forced titration to 0.6 mg daily for 8 weeks.
Algae Effects in Markers of Cardiovascular Risk and Gut Microbiome
The Western diet, rich in fat and sugar, contributes to cardiovascular risk and alters the body metabolism, specifically through the modulation of the microbiome. Microbiome is considered the "second genome", functioning as an endocrine-like organ. Gut microbiota-derived metabolites, namely trimethylamine- N-oxide and short-chain fatty acids have been associated with atherosclerosis, …
Finerenone Treatment for Diabetic Cardiovascular Autonomic Neuropathy: the FibroCAN Study
Diabetic neuropathy is a serious and common complication of diabetes that currently has no cure. One form of this condition is cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN), which affects about 20% of people with diabetes-an estimated 100 million people worldwide. CAN is a significant risk factor for death and health problems like …
The Electronic Cardiovascular Genetics (eCG) Clinic for Presymptomatic Genetic Counselling
Inherited cardiovascular conditions generally inherit following an autosomal dominant pattern. When a mutation is detected in the proband, relatives can have predictive DNA testing, and - when they are carrier - be monitored and timely treated if needed. Currently, less than half of relatives attends genetic counselling. With the eCG …
The Cardiovascular Consequences of Sleep Apnea Plus COPD (Overlap Syndrome)
Major progress has been made in the area of cardiovascular disease, but we believe that further progress will involve mechanistically addressing underlying respiratory causes including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The most common cause of death in COPD is cardiovascular, although mechanisms are unknown. OSA …
Impact of Earplugs on Mechanisms of Noise-Related Cardiovascular Disease
Noise from cars, planes, and trains affects all people and has been associated with heart disease. Almost 30% of Americans are exposed to harmful levels of noise and noise accounts for the loss of more than one million healthy life years per year in Europe. Noise causes stress and may …
