Artery aging risk markers study
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at markers of artery aging in people already taking part in the Paris Prospective Study III. It may help understand how arteries change with age.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You must have signed a consent form for this new part (PPS3-2).

This study looks at how having COVID-19 may affect your blood vessels over the following months. It may help doctors understand long-term “vascular aging” and who is most at risk, based on how sick you were during your COVID illness.
This study looks at how stiff your arteries are by measuring pulse wave velocity. It may help doctors better understand your blood pressure and risks. You'll wear a blood pressure monitor for 24 hours and have a few additional measurements taken.
This study looks at how well your arteries are working after a stroke and how rehabilitation may help. It uses a simple, painless test (pulse wave velocity) to check artery stiffness.
This study looks at how blood vessel stiffness and a simple blood test (TyG index) relate to blood pressure changes over 24 hours. It may help doctors understand heart risks better without using any new drugs.
This study looks for ways to predict preeclampsia (a pregnancy complication that can raise blood pressure and harm organs) early by measuring how stiff certain blood vessels are. If you’re considered higher risk, this could help identify problems sooner so your care team can watch you more closely.
This study looks at how the stiffness of your carotid artery (the main artery in your neck) relates to memory problems. It involves a brain MRI that you may already have planned, and results could help doctors better understand certain types of dementia.
