Innovative Biomarkers of Cardiovascular Complications Associated With Second-generation Bruton Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor Treatments: a Single-center Cohort Study
Second-generation Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKIs) (zanubrutinib, acalabrutinib) are recently discovered oral targeted therapies used to treat hematological disorders such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia, mantle cell lymphoma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and Waldenström's macroglobulinemia. These treatments significantly increase survival rates for these diseases, but over the years, we have observed the emergence …
InTake Care: Development and Validation of an Innovative, Personalized Digital Health Solution for Medication Adherence Support in Cardiovascular Prevention
Inadequate medication adherence (MA) in chronic conditions, including cardiovascular prevention, represents an important risk factor. The use of new IT technologies in this setting is supposed to be useful to improve patients' adherence, but currently available solutions have significant limitations, including lack of personalization and reliance on expensive ad hoc …
Study on Optimal Temperature During Cardiopulmonary Bypass (THERMIC-4)
In order to perform heart surgery, a machine called cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), or more commonly known as a heart-lung machine, is used to maintain the circulation of oxygenated blood needed by the rest of the body and its organs. Historically, when a patient is connected to CPB, their body is …
Fish Oil, Metformin and Heart Health in PCOS
Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) have high testosterone levels which is associated with altered insulin-glucose metabolism and an adverse blood lipid profile, predisposing them to the development of Type II Diabetes and Cardiovascular Disease (CVD). This study will investigate the use of dietary fish oil supplementation as a safe …
Gauging Outcomes of Total Milk Ingestion on Lipid and gControl
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death for adults in the United States. The cardiovascular impact of milk consumption remains a matter of long-standing scientific debate. Current guidelines for Americans recommend three daily servings of fat-free or low-fat (1%) dairy over full-fat options due to concerns that saturated …
SEDentary Lifestyle, Mortality and Major Adverse Clinical Outcomes in Chronic KIDney Disease
The goal of this study is to learn if a simple home exercise program can benefit patients with advanced chronic kidney disease. There is also an observational part of the study without an exercise program. The study will record patients' mortality, cardiovascular events, emergency department visits, hospital stays, need for …
VTE Incidence After Rivaroxaban + Aspirin or SAPT After Lower-limb Revascularization
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) has a high prevalence in patients with multiple comorbidities undergoing complex surgical procedures. Sometimes, extended prophylaxis for VTE with KLMWH or direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) is necessary. Currently, there is no consensus in the literature regarding the use of DOACs for extended VTE prophylaxis in patients undergoing …
GENESIS: Genotype Guided - Natriuretic Peptides - Cardiometabolic Health Study
Natriuretic Peptides (NP) are hormones produced by the heart, and they have a wide range of favorable metabolic benefits. Lower levels of these hormones are associated with an increased likelihood of the development of diabetes and poor cardiometabolic health. Obese and Black individuals have ~30% lower levels of NP and …
Focused Power Ultrasound Mediated Inferior Perirenal Adipose Tissue Modification Therapy for Essential Hypertension (PARADISE HTN-III)
This seamless two-stage phase II/III clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a novel focused power ultrasound mediated inferior perirenal adipose tissue modification therapy for essential hypertension. Stage 1 is a phase II, multicenter, open-label, randomized trial to determine the optimal treatment strategy. Stage 2 is a …
Impact of Fast-rotation Coronary CT in Patients Undergoing Aortic Stenosis Workup
This study aims to evaluate the clinical value of a novel CT gantry supporting a .23 second rotation time and systematically compare it with 0.23 second rotation time, in patients with clinically indicated aortic CTA in the workup of aortic stenosis. Patients will be randomly assigned .23 or .28 sec …
