Cardiometabolic Effects of Pecan Snacking in Prediabetes

Prediabetes

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of replacing snacks higher in saturated fats and added sugars with pecans on blood sugar control, heart health and diet quality in individuals with prediabetes. Participants will be randomized into one of two groups. Group 1 will consume 1.5 oz of pecans per day in place of normally consumed snacks higher in saturated fat and added sugars for 16 weeks. Group 2 will be asked to continue consuming their current diet for 16 weeks. Measures will be taken to evaluate blood sugar, heart health and dietary intake at the beginning and 16 weeks later.

Philly CEAL- DECIDE+ Adaptation

Disparities · Community Health Workers · Cardiovascular Diseases

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) disproportionately affects racial/ethnic minorities and underserved populations in Philadelphia. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an enhanced community health worker (CHW) program that combines the evidence-based DECIDE self-management intervention with structured CHW consultations to improve CVD self-management skills and address social needs. Using a Type 1 Hybrid Effectiveness-Implementation Design, we will recruit 500 Philadelphia residents aged 35-75 with CVD risk factors and unmet social needs. Participants will be offered the DECIDE+ intervention (9 bi-weekly group sessions plus alternating CHW consultations) or continue with standard CHW services. The primary outcome is CVD self-management skills measured by the Self-care of Chronic Illness Inventory Maintenance scale. Secondary outcomes include health behaviors and resolution of social needs. Implementation outcomes will assess CHW experiences, community advisory council impact, and factors influencing participation. Propensity score methods will be used to compare changes in outcomes between DECIDE+ participants and those receiving standard CHW services. Mediation analyses will examine pathways through problem-solving skills, self-efficacy, and social needs resolution. Mixed methods will evaluate implementation outcomes. This study will provide evidence on the effectiveness of integrating an evidence-based self-management program with CHW services to address both clinical and social needs. This study has the potential to generate important and impactful findings that can advance health equity and the science of effective community health worker programs. By rigorously evaluating the real-world implementation of a city-wide CHW-delivered chronic disease self-management program that also addresses collaborative approaches and support to addressing social needs, our findings can provide a roadmap for other communities looking to implement evidence-based interventions to reduce health disparities. Demonstrating improved CVD self-management behaviors and reduced social needs among Philadelphia residents receiving the DECIDE+ intervention would provide compelling evidence for the synergistic benefit of these services, and to sustain and scale up this model. OBJECTIVES: We propose both effectiveness and implementation questions to guide our work: Effectiveness of CHW Engagement: 1. Is the DECIDE intervention with CHW consultations (DECIDE+) effective in improving CVD self-management skills compared to the standard and limited CHW engagement? 1. Do DECIDE+ sessions improve CVD self-management skills by strengthening problem solving and self-efficacy? 2. Does participation in CHW consultations improve CVD self-management skills by meeting social needs? Implementation Questions: 2. What key sociodemographic and psychosocial factors influence client participation in the study? 3. How do CHWs perceive the impact of facilitator training on their a.) knowledge, attitudes and practices in supporting clients b.) personal health management, and c.) job satisfaction? 4. How does the CAC facilitate resource mobilization to enhance access to services that address social needs in Philadelphia's communities?

Perivenous Dexamethasone Therapy: Examining Reduction of Inflammation After Thrombus Removal to Yield Benefit in Acute Femoropopliteal DVT

Thrombosis, Deep Vein · Iliofemoral; Thrombosis

This is a study of a medical procedure that utilizes a commercially available catheter (the Bullfrog® Micro-Infusion Device) to locally deliver a commercially available anti-inflammatory drug (dexamethasone sodium phosphate injection) around the deep veins after DVT recanalization, where DVT symptoms were present for up to 14 days prior to recanalization. The goal of the study is to see if local anti-inflammation helps prevent re-thrombosis of the blood vessel and improvement in symptoms for up to 24 months after the initial DVT recanalization procedure.

Characterization and Natural History of Williams Syndrome and Other Chromosome 7q11.23 Variants

Williams Beuren Syndrome · Williams Syndrome · Williams Beuren Region Duplication

The goal of this observational natural history study is to better characterize development, transition to adulthood, health and behavior of individuals diagnosed with Williams syndrome (WS) or carrying other variants of 7q11.23 chromosome and to build a DNA and tissue biobank with samples donated by affected individuals. The study has multiple arms focused on different aspects of WS. Participants with genetic diagnosis of WS or other variants of 7q11.23 and their family members are eligible to participate. Study participants may participate in one or multiple arms of the study: 1. Natural History Genotype-Phenotype Study to test the hypothesis that health, behavior, and developmental variability observed in WS is determined by genetic factors and to characterize those genetic changes. Participants of all ages are eligible to participate. Either a blood or saliva sample is required for participation. 2. Biobank: the research team is building a biobank enabling the development of new laboratory tools and models to study WS and test new treatment approaches. A blood sample is required for participation. Participants of all ages are eligible to participate. 3. Development arm of the study aims to delineate the development of language, cognition, personality, literacy and mathematics skills, and adaptive behavior from very early childhood through adulthood in individuals who have WS or Dup7. The purpose of this study also includes determining the predictors of specific aspects of development (e.g., word reading ability, language ability, spatial ability) for individuals with WS or Dup7. Affected individuals of all ages are eligible to participate. 4. Transition to Adulthood study aims to understand how young adults with WS make a successful transition out of high school into adulthood and to help them in this journey by providing a comprehensive psychosocial transition coupled with a medical transition plan. Individuals ages 14-25 years old are eligible to participate. Study requires three in person visits. 5. Health Outcomes, Resilience, Independence, and Executive functioning in Neurodevelopment (HORIZON) aims to characterize physical, mental health, cognitive, social, adaptive, aging, and quality of life outcomes for adults with WS, stress and resilience for caregivers, and the interplay between caregiver stress and resilience with outcomes for adults with WS. 6. Sleep and Activity Study aims to expand knowledge on sleep difficulties experienced by individuals with WS and to better understand the connection between sleep, activity (movement through the day), prescribed medications and other traits in WS.

PREvention of CardIovascular and DiabEtic kidNey Disease in Type 2 Diabetes

Type2Diabetes · ASCVD

PRECIDENTD is a randomized, open label, pragmatic clinical trial designed to compare rates of the total number of cardiovascular, kidney, and death events among two alternative treatments for patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and either established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) or at high risk for ASCVD. To accomplish this objective, we will randomly assign 6,000 patients with established T2D and ASCVD or high-risk for ASCVD in a 1:1 allocation to sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) or glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA). Participants will be followed for the occurrence of the trial primary endpoint of the total (first and recurrent) number of episodes of myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, arterial revascularization, hospitalization for heart failure, development of end-stage kidney disease, kidney transplantation, and mortality, counting all events from randomization until end of study.
