Exercise-Induced Kidney Blood Flow Response in African American Adults
Study Summary
This trial will study the renal vasoconstrictor response to sympathetic stressors in healthy African American adults prior to development of cardiovascular and renal disease to test the hypotheses that the renal vasoconstrictor response to acute dynamic exercise, as well as a cold pressor and mental stress tests, is exaggerated in healthy young African American adults compared to white adults.

Frequently Asked Questions
What goals is this research attempting to achieve?
"The primary outcome of this trial—which will be assessed through pre- and post-mental stress tests over a 5 minute time frame—will measure the alteration in renal vascular resistance during acute exercise. Secondary outcomes include the absolute change from pre-cold pressor test to 30 second intervals during cold pressor testing, mean arterial blood pressure changes throughout 1 minute increments of mental stress testing, as well as heart rate discrepancies before and after steady state exercising."
Could I be accepted as a participant in this clinical experiment?
"This medical trial is recruiting 32 adolescents aged between 18 to 35 with acute exercise. Candidates must be proficient in English, of African American or White descent, born in the USA, have two parents of the same race as themselves and should usually partake in physical activity for at least 20 minutes daily three times a week without training for competitive purposes."
Are there any opportunities for volunteers to participate in this experiment?
"Clinicaltrials.gov records indicate that this medical study is currently not recruiting patients, having last been updated on June 16th 2022 since its original posting on July 1st 2023. Fortunately, there are still five other trials seeking participants at the moment."
Is enrollment open to geriatric individuals for this investigation?
