This multicenter, prospective cohort study evaluates early cardiac dysfunction in adult survivors of childhood cancer. The hypothesis of this study is that cardiac dysfunction can be detected earlier when using speckle tracking echocardiography as novel echocardiographic technique compared to conventional echocardiography.
The overall objective of this study is to investigate Fabry-related cardiomyopathy and the use of native T1-mapping, coronary microvascular function, cardiac inflammation, and cardiac injury in an effort to improve the ability to detect disease. The study aims to achieve this by: Investigating the association between cardiac inflammation, fibrosis, and …
Cardiovascular disease has become the leading cause of death early after liver transplantation (LT). The aging LT population is accompanied with the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia. Furthermore, cirrhosis has been known to cause alterations in the systemic haemodynamic system and cardiac muscle …
Coronary heart disease (CHD) combined with chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects a substantial portion of the population and carries a significant disease burden, often leading to poor outcomes. Despite efforts to strictly control traditional risk factors, the efficacy in improving outcomes for patients with both CHD and CKD has been …
The goal of the Cardiovascular Health Equity Through Food (CHEF) program is to make it easier for participants and families to cook and eat healthy foods during and following childhood cancer treatment with the long-term goal of supporting heart health.
The investigators will conduct a feasibility and pilot efficacy randomized controlled trial to test the usability and user satisfaction of an evidence-based digital health tool the investigators developed for physicians to use to Prioritize Personalize Prescribe EXercise (P3-EX) to patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors. The investigators will recruit …
Nattokinase has been confirmed by many experiments to have a thrombolytic effect, but there are currently very few studies on nattokinase's effect on gut microbiota, sleeping status, and age-related cognitive function. Therefore, this study intends to explore the effect of nattokinase on cardiovascular disease risk factors, intestinal microbiota, sleep status …
Heart failure (HF) is a growing health and economic burden around the globe, and it remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among the general population. HIV is recognized as an independent risk factor for HF, due to direct and indirect effects. Furthermore, people living with HIV (PLWH) now …
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase IIa clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of YN001 in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and erectile dysfunction
The purpose of this study is to measure the change in high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), a marker of inflammation in the body, with clazakizumab compared with placebo in adults who have elevated hsCRP and at increased risk for cardiovascular event. Participation in the study will last about 9 months.
