Stress and heart health in young people
Part of Heart & circulation, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how early life stress affects heart health in young people. It compares two age groups to see how stress early in life might influence cardiovascular risk.

This study looks at how depression and stress connect to heart health in women going through the late stages of menopause. It may help researchers understand what factors affect heart risk during this life stage, including how symptoms and daily life relate to heart measurements.
This study looks at how stress shows up in the body during early pregnancy and whether it’s linked to preterm birth (birth before 37 weeks). You may be asked about your stress and health to help researchers understand who is at higher risk.
This pilot study tests whether a stress-reduction program can improve heart-related outcomes for adults who feel highly stressed. You may be invited because the study focuses on how stress affects the body—especially the heart.
This study looks at whether stressful neighborhood conditions are connected to heart-health blood markers and everyday health behaviors. It mainly enrolls healthy women in Washington, DC to help researchers understand how environment may affect cardiovascular risk.
This trial tests how beta-blockers affect your body's reaction to stress. You'll take a beta-blocker or placebo and then do a stress task, so researchers can measure inflammation and other responses.
This study tests whether early-life stress affects blood vessel function in young adults by looking at a type of cell stress called oxidative stress. It involves measuring how well your blood vessels work and may help understand why some people have higher heart risks.
