    Sympathetic-vascular Dysfunction in Obesity and Insulin Resistance (Vitamin C Study)

    Studying how vitamin C affects blood vessel function in obese adults with insulin resistance and

    📍 University of Kansas Medical Center · Kansas City, KS · Get directions →

    The main purpose of research is to examine and understanding the development of hypertension in obese adults with insulin resistance. Findings from our studies will identify unique mechanisms that can be targeted to limit increases in vascular dysfunction and reduce the excessively high prevalence of hypertension and risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD).

    Sympathetic Transduction in Obesity-associated Hypertension (OB-HTN)

    Studying how the nervous system controls blood pressure in obesity and high blood pressure

    📍 University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center · Dallas, TX · Get directions →

    The purpose of this study is to understand how the nervous system communicates to blood vessels to increase blood pressure during stress. The study will also investigate how hypertension and obesity influence the nervous system and vascular function.

    Using PET scans to find blood vessel blockage markers in sickle cell disease

    📍 UPMC · Pittsburgh, PA · Get directions →

    The purpose of this study is to find objective biomarkers of vaso-occlusion (blood vessel blockage) in people with SCD. Using information from earlier studies and work being done, researchers have developed a strategy to image VOC, using positron emission tomography (PET).

    📍 Vanderbilt University Medical Center · Nashville, TN · Get directions →

    We will study obese hypertensive subjects in a randomized, crossover study to determine if two weeks sympathetic blockade improves endogenous glucose production. Subjects will be studied on 3 different occasions after two weeks of receiving either placebo, amlodipine (vasodilator arm) or moxonidine (study arm).
