Swiss Longitudinal Cohort
The planned research project is a prospective population-based cohort study, similar to the well-known Framingham study in the United States. So far, there is no similar research project in Switzerland. It is planned to examine of three Swiss municipalities. Recruitment in a first Swiss municipality (Lostallo/Cama GR) started 2014 and …
AI-POD Clinical Validation Study for Obese Patients
The study is aimed at patients who suffer from severe obesity and receive a computerised tomography (CT) scan of the heart. A total of 1200 patients across Europe are to take part in the study. It is a multi-centre, controlled, open, randomised study. As part of the study, a citizen …
The Heart Outcomes in Pregnancy Expectations for Mom and Baby Study
This is a prospective, observational study which is evaluating the obstetrical, neonatal, and cardiovascular outcomes of 1000 pregnant people with known heart disease to define how best to structure cardio-obstetrics care to optimize outcomes.
Cardiovascular Health & Early Stress
Childhood adversity is highly prevalent, with 59% of the U.S. population reporting at least one adverse childhood experience (ACE). Substantial evidence links childhood adversity to cardiometabolic disease later in the life course, including heart disease, diabetes, and stroke, which are 3 of the top 10 causes of mortality in the …
Exploring of Serum Biomarkers of Delirium After Cardiovascular Surgery
The incidence of postoperative delirium in patients after cardiovascular surgery is very high, which seriously affects the short-term and long-term prognosis of patients, but its mechanism is not clear. Recent studies have found that lactic acid participates in the process of sepsis by inducing histone lactatation in macrophages. histone H3 …
The Munich Cardiovascular Adaptation in Young Athletes Plus Study
The aim of the 3-year longitudinal study is to investigate the cardiovascular system's response to training loads in young athletes. For the first time, these parameters will be examined alongside biochemical and metabolic laboratory measures, as well as body composition. The study focuses on the impact of training frequency and …
Perioperative EEG-Monitoring and Postoperative Delirium in Patients Undergoing Cardiovascular Surgery
Postoperative delirium is common in patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery and associated with poor outcomes. However the pathogenesis of postoperative delirium is poorly understood. Multichannel electroencephalogram is a recognized tool for identifying neurophysiologic states during anesthesia, sleep, and arousal. The aim of the current study is to evaluate the mechanisms and …
Geospatial Analysis of Neighborhood Environmental Stress in Relation to Biological Markers of Cardiovascular Health and Health Behaviors in Women
Background Heart disease is a leading cause of death in the United States. Healthy diet and exercise improve heart health. Some features of where a person lives can lead to stress and decrease chances for exercise. Researchers want to see how these factors may increase the risk of heart disease …
Circulating Vascular Regenerative Cell Exhaustion in Individuals Without Type 2 Diabetes Who Are of South Asian or European Origins
ORIGINS-VRCE-2 is an observational study aimed to assess how blood vessel forming stem cells from individuals without diabetes or a history of cardiovascular disease differ between individuals of South Asian and European ethnicities. The overarching objective of the study is to investigate whether differential vessel reparative stem cell populations and …
Cardiovascular Health Improvement Project
The goal of this project is to establish a biobank of clinical information, DNA, plasma, and aortic tissue samples from patients with cardiovascular disease as well as healthy controls.
