Mortality related to cardiovascular disease in the US is improving. Yet the rate of decline is less for women than for men. Women's health is unique due to the varying reproductive stages, and differences are further heightened by sex-specific molecular and cellular characteristics of the heart and vasculature. These biophysiological …
The purpose of this research study is to determine whether blood pressure treatment regimens with spironolactone are better than blood pressure treatment regimens without spironolactone at lowering blood pressure in hemorrhagic Stroke survivors. This study will randomize a total of 200 patients, 100 of each white and nonwhite patients, between …
The research study is being conducted to determine the utility of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in identifying inflammation of arteries supplying blood to the head, brain, and eyes, which may be useful in the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of giant cell arteritis (GCA; temporal arteritis). Study participants are eligible if …
Mortality related to cardiovascular disease in the US is improving. Yet the rate of decline is less for women than for men. Womens health is unique due to the varying reproductive stages, and differences are even greater due to gender-specific characteristics of the heart and vasculature. While women have some unique risk factors, …
The purpose of this research study is to assess whether lowering of your cholesterol blood level can reduce your risk for major cardiovascular events (for example, heart attack or stroke) when evolocumab is taken in addition to your current medical therapy as directed by your doctor, which may include a …
The Laboratory for Cognition and Neural Stimulation (LCNS) is currently recruiting individuals who have suffered from stroke and are now experiencing aphasia, a loss or impairment of language abilities, for a clinical trial. The purpose of this study is to determine if Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), a form of non-invasive …
This is an event-driven, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to determine whether methotrexate reduces heart attacks, strokes, or death in people who have already had at least one heart attack and have type 2 diabetes or metabolic syndrome. Metabolic syndrome is defined as a combination of problems including a large …
The purpose of this study is to compare edoxaban with warfarin to see if it is safe and effective in preventing thromboembolism (formation of a clot [thrombus] in a blood vessel that breaks loose and is carried by the blood stream to block another vessel) and strokes which results when …
Randomized (flip of the coin 50/50) study of heart failure (HF) patients with moderate aortic valve stenosis (narrowing) will be either treated with a transcatheter valve replacement (TAVR) or continue with medical management. Subjects will be followed for 2 years. We will collect information regarding death and major events such …
This is a research study designed to look at the safety and effectiveness of the TriGUARD 3 cerebral embolic protection device in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). The purpose of the study is to assess whether the TriGUARD 3 can prevent death, stroke, more subtle signs of brain …
