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.
Who can take part
- You were born between 2009 and 2011.
- 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).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at metabolic health in young children (ages 5 and up) who have permanent congenital hypothyroidism (a thyroid condition present from birth). The goal is to understand if these children have higher risks for conditions like obesity or diabetes, which may help doctors provide better care.
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 trial tests if a hormone called BNP (a protein from the heart) can help doctors better understand your sudden heart problem. It may guide treatment or predict recovery.
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.
This study is measuring a heart-related substance called NTproBNP in healthy people to set a normal reference range for a test kit. Participants must be generally healthy with no major heart, kidney, or metabolic conditions.
This study looks at how genetic markers (DNA) relate to heart health and “metabolic” health (how your body manages sugar and fat). You may be asked to provide genetic samples and follow study health checks and protocols to help researchers understand who is at higher risk.
