Effect of Midodrine vs Abdominal Compression on Cardiovascular Risk Markers in Autonomic Failure Patients
The purpose of this study is to learn more about the effects of abdominal compression and the medication midodrine, two interventions used for the treatment of orthostatic hypotension (low blood pressure on standing), on hemodynamic markers of cardiovascular risk. The study will be conducted at the Vanderbilt University Medical Center …
Air Pollution and Cardiovascular Disease in Qatar: an Interventional Study to Reduce Blood Pressure
The main objective is to determine if in-home portable air cleaners provide persistent reductions in PM2.5 exposures and improvements in systolic blood pressure and biochemical parameters over 4-weeks in patients with metabolic syndrome residing in Qatar.
Cardiovascular Function and Response to Stimulation Within the First Year After Spinal Cord Injury
The study aims to explore how cardiovascular function changes in the first year after a spinal cord injury, and to see how different treatments, like spinal stimulation through the skin (transcutaneous spinal stimulation), affect blood pressure. The main questions are: How does stimulation affect blood pressure over the year? What …
Effect of DASH Diet and Progressive Muscle Relaxation on Cardiovascular Risks in Postmenopausal Women
This study will be conducted to investigate the effect of DASH diet and Progressive muscle relaxation on cardiovascular risks in postmenopausal women.
Effect of Vitamin D on Cardiovascular Metabolic Risk in Overweight/Obesity Adolescents in China
The goal of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to investigate the effects of vitamin D3 supplementation on cardiometabolic risk in Chinese adolescents with overweight/obesity and vitamin D deficiency. The main question it aims to answer whether vitamin D3 supplementation can improve cardiovascular metabolic health. Participants in the intervention group …
Melatonin Effects on Cardiovascular Disease Mechanisms in the Menopause Transition: A Randomized Clinical Trial
The purpose of this research is to study the effects of 12 weeks of melatonin supplementation compared to placebo in women who are in the menopause transition (perimenopause) and have high blood pressure.
Cardiovascular Responses to Exercise in People Living With HIV/AIDS: Effects of Exercise Training
Patients living with HIV (PLWHIV) have compromised muscle metaboreflex, which can cause exercise intolerance. This randomized controlled clinical trial will verify the effects of regular exercise on autonomic and hemodynamic responses to muscle ergoreflex activation in these patients. PLWHIV without regular physical exercise will be randomly assigned into an exercise …
Cardiovascular and Renal Endpoints With Flozins - an Observational Prospective Study in CKD HFpEF Patients
The main aim of this study is to holistically assess the cardiovascular and renal outcomes in HFpEF CKD patients with and without SGLT2 inhibition, with focus on the endothelial disfunction, MACE and mortality using clinical evaluation, flow mediated dilatation, carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity, intima-media thickness, echocardiographic parameters, NMR metabolomics and …
Improving the Heart Health of Home Health Aides
The goal of this early-stage study is to support the heart health of home health aides, a workforce that provides care for adults at home but whose own health has been historically poor. To do this, the study will use Life's Essential 8 (LE8), a program developed by the American …
Plant Stanol Esters and Preventing Asthma Symptoms
Plant stanols are known to lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. However, studies have suggested that these compounds also influence the immune system. Asthmatic responses are predominantly T helper (Th)2 cell dependent, while plant stanols were previously found to activate Th1 cells and shift the immune response away from the Th2 cell …
