NCT03531879
The purpose of this study is to better understand the association between the postprandial biomarker responses after a food challenge with the development of cardiovascular diseases in healthy subjects
NCT00324545
(1) What effect does behavioral counseling for vegan, for low to moderate fat, and for lowered carbohydrate diets have on coronary blood flow? (2) What are the effects of different diet protocols when caloric intake and exercise are equalized? (3) Do people, so counseled, maintain their modified behaviors after they have completed their diet program? (4) How does targeting different diets affect secondary indices associated with heart disease such as weight, lipid, inflammatory, and thrombotic factors?
NCT00960505
The proposed research will demonstrate that alternate day modified fasting (ADMF) is a suitable alternative to daily calorie restriction (CR) for weight loss, weight maintenance, and heart disease prevention. Since many overweight and obese individuals find it difficult to adhere to daily CR, this diet option may improve adherence with these dietary restriction protocols. This, in turn, will allow a greater percent of the overweight and obese population to lose weight, maintain weight loss, and prevent future occurrences of coronary heart disease.
NCT01276691
The investigators hypothesize that 1. an acute treatment of low-dose aspirin will lead to a) decreased resting platelet activation, platelet aggregation, and clotting potential, b) increased fibrinolytic potential following fire fighting, c) no significant effect on endothelial function or arterial stiffness versus the placebo condition. 2. chronic treatment with low-dose aspirin will lead to a) decreased resting and fire fighting induced platelet activation, platelet aggregation, clotting potential, b) increased fibrinolytic potential, and c) increased endothelial function and decreased arterial stiffness in response to live fire fighting versus the placebo condition. 3. short-term fire fighting activity will result in: a) a reduction in arterial function (reduced endothelial function, increased augmentation index and an attenuated arterial stiffness response); b) a disruption in hemostasis that is characterized by an increase in platelet number and function, an increased coagulatory potential and altered fibrinolytic potential; and c) an elevation in procoagulatory cytokines, systemic inflammation, monokine chemoattractant protein, and matrix metalloproteinases.
