BNP in Teens with Metabolic Syndrome
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study is looking at how heart function tests taken in the first month of life relate to metabolic syndrome (a group of conditions like high blood pressure and blood sugar) in teens. Researchers will use data already collected from when you were a baby.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You had a BNP (a heart-related blood test) during your first month of life.
- You had an echocardiogram (heart ultrasound) during your first month of life.
- You are now an adolescent (around 13–18 years old).

This study looks at how metabolic syndrome affects the heart's upper chambers, which can help prevent strokes. It tests if certain heart changes are linked to kidney and metabolic issues.
This study looks at how congenital hypothyroidism (a condition where the thyroid gland doesn't work properly from birth) affects metabolism in children before puberty. It aims to understand if these children have a higher risk of metabolic problems, which could help with future care.
This study checks on participants from an earlier child health study to see how their health is as they grow through puberty. It looks for early signs of long-term conditions like diabetes or heart disease.
This study looks at how fitness, sleep, and diet during childhood affect heart and metabolic health in teenagers and young adults. It uses data and samples already collected from participants in earlier studies.
This study is measuring the normal levels of a heart hormone called NT-proBNP in healthy people to help doctors better understand heart failure tests. If you join, you will provide a blood sample and have some basic health checks.
This study looks at cardiovascular (heart and blood vessel) health in children who were born preterm or at full term. It may help researchers understand early-life factors that affect heart and metabolic health later.
