The goal of this clinical trial is to treat both hypertension and obesity in adults using a food is medicine framework. Participants will be randomized 1:1 to FIM+DASH or usual-care control. The 24-week trial includes a 12-week FIM+DASH intervention followed by a 12-week maintenance period and leverages existing partnerships with community-based organizations for home food delivery and culinary skill-skill building. The main questions it aims to answer are: (1) What is the effect of FIM+DASH vs. usual care control on blood pressure? (2) What is the effect of FIM+DASH vs. usual care control on DASH diet adherence (diet quality), body weight, and waist circumference? (3) How to identify factors associated with the sustainability and scalability of FIM+DASH in real-world settings?

Patients with cancer are at high risk for life-threatening venous thromboembolism (VTE) yet rarely receive anticoagulant prophylaxis due to bleeding risks. Thus, effective prophylaxis in oncology requires a method to reduce VTE without increasing hemorrhage. The primary aim of the Statin Therapy to Prevent Cancer Associated Venous Thromboembolism (STAT-CAT) trial is to test whether rosuvastatin 20 mg daily for 12 months compared to placebo can safely prevent VTE in patients with newly diagnosed or recently relapsed cancer who are at increased thrombotic risk, are not planned to be anticoagulated, and who do not otherwise take statin therapy.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate an investigational ultralow dose positron emission tomography (PET) imaging technique for known or suspected coronary artery disease (for detecting myocardial ischemia or infarction) detection and monitoring. The main question it aims to answer is: Can the investigators optimize the timing, scan duration, and image reconstruction to reduce the radiation dose 10-100 fold of the current clinical standard? Participants will be injected with a radioactive tracer called Fluorine-18 (18F)-flurpiridaz and be imaged on a new type of high sensitivity PET scanner for up to 3 hours

In patients with a myocardial infarction (MI) treated medically alone, the objective of the PANTHEON trial is to evaluate if ticagrelor monotherapy reduces bleeding events, without an increase in patient-oriented ischemic events, compared with standard dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with aspirin and ticagrelor for 12 months.

A study Comparing the Clinical Benefit of Finerenone Versus a Fixed-Dose Combination (FDC) of Extended-Release Torsemide and Spironolactone in Patients with Hypertension and Chronic Kidney Disease.

The goal of this clinical trial is to study whether having a clinical decision support (CDS) tool available to clinician use will more effectively lower BP 4 weeks after an outpatient visit compared with usual care. The main objective is to assess the impact of the CDS tool, that is embedded with the electronic medical record (EMR), that is available during outpatient clinical encounters, on blood pressure (BP) changes among participants with uncontrolled hypertension. Participants will: Visit the clinic 4 weeks, after their initial clinician visit, for a BP check.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether zilebesiran versus placebo reduces the risk of cardiovascular (CV) death, nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), nonfatal stroke, or heart failure (HF) events. This is an event-driven study that will continue until the targeted number of positively adjudicated primary endpoint clinical outcome events (COEs) have been reached.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether adding cilostazol to aspirin or clopidogrel prevents stroke and heart attack in people who have had a stroke or mini-stroke.

Cardiac Rehabilitation is a lifestyle and exercise program for patients with heart disease. Cardiac Rehabilitation is strongly recommended in guidelines, but only 30% of eligible patients attend. New strategies are needed to help more patients attend cardiac rehabilitation. In this study, the investigators will see if using an $50 incentive, case management, text messages, and physical activity coaching combined into a single intervention will help more patients attend cardiac rehabilitation. In preparation for a larger trial, patients will also be randomly assigned to four different ways of seeking their permission to be in a research study. The investigators will see if these approaches affect how many people participate in the research project. The two main goals of this study is to understand: 1. If the consent approach type impacts participation rates in the research study 2. If the multi-component intervention (case management, financial incentives, text messages, and physical activity coaching) improves cardiac rehabilitation participation within 3 months.

Natriuretic peptides (NPs) are hormones produced by the heart and play an important role in maintaining cardiovascular health and have favorable metabolic benefits. Low NP levels are associated with an increased likelihood of the development of cardiometabolic diseases like diabetes and hypertension. NP levels are known to be highly heritable, with up to half of the differences in NP levels being explained by genetics. The investigators aim to describe the genetic architecture of NPs by examining the genetic variants associated with NPs, and generate and validate a polygenic score (PGS) for NPs. The investigators will use this NP PGS to examine the association of genetically determined NP levels with cardiometabolic and cardiovascular outcomes. The investigators will conduct a genotype-guided physiological clinical trial that aims to assess the genetic factors affecting NP levels and their impact on blood pressure and NP response to saline infusion, high-salt diet, and low-salt diet. These findings will help support personal medicine approaches to lower the increasing burden of hypertension in the United States.

This trial tests a promising new intervention to promote post-stroke neural reorganization and functional recovery. The Q Therapeutic (BQ 3.0) is a wearable medical system that produces and delivers non-invasive, extremely-low-intensity and low-frequency, frequency-tuned electromagnetic fields in order to stimulate neuronal networks with the aim of reducing disability and promoting neurorecovery. This trial is a prospective, single-arm, open-label, single center clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of the Q Therapeutic (BQ 3.0) System in the rehabilitation of people with chronic stroke.

To obtain an assessment of the efficacy and safety of renal denervation by dehydrated alcohol injection, USP administered via the Peregrine System™ Infusion Catheter in hypertensive subjects in the absence of antihypertensive medications.
