Lipid study in healthy blood donors
Treatments studied
This research study looks at tiny particles in the blood called microparticles and their fat content. It aims to understand these particles in healthy people, which helps in future research on diseases.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be a healthy volunteer who can donate blood
- You need to agree to participate (give your non-opposition)
- You must not be pregnant or breastfeeding
- You must not be under legal guardianship or unable to make decisions for yourself
- You cannot be under 18 years old

This study looks at how fats (lipids) in your blood affect blood cells called platelets, which help with clotting. It includes both healthy people and those with high cholesterol or other fat issues.
This study uses a heart ultrasound (echocardiography) to see how the heart changes when healthy volunteers donate blood. If you're a healthy adult who can donate blood, you may help researchers understand more about blood donation's effect on the heart.
This study collects blood samples from donors with excess weight or related health issues to better understand fatty liver disease. If you are a blood donor between 40 and 65, and have overweight, high blood sugar, abnormal cholesterol, or high blood pressure, you may be able to help.
This study collects small blood samples (and sometimes samples during treatment) to help researchers understand diseases involving the heart, inflammation, and blood vessel function. It may help improve future tests and treatments by giving scientists usable human data.
This study looks at how certain fats (called bioactive lipids) relate to immune cells in healthy people. By comparing people with and without inflammation, researchers hope to understand how these lipids might help detect or treat inflammatory conditions.
This study looks at how a person’s immune cells interact with bacterial germs. You’d be screened as healthy and may donate blood (and possibly tissue), with samples stored for future research.
