Blood vessel health in adults with Down syndrome
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study looks at how blood vessels work in adults with Down syndrome compared to those without Down syndrome. It aims to understand heart health better and may help improve future care.

This study looks at how eating patterns and body composition relate to fatty liver in children and young adults with Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome) or other genetic intellectual disabilities. It may help understand who is at risk and how to prevent liver problems.
This study looks at how the nervous system controls heart rate and blood pressure in adults with Down syndrome. It involves some simple tests, like blood draws and placing a small tube in an arm vein, plus possibly some cold water or exercise tasks.
This study looks at how gums and inflammation work in children with Down syndrome by collecting and analyzing biological samples. It may help researchers understand gum health differences and improve future care.
This study includes people of many ages to help researchers learn more about Trisomy (an extra chromosome condition) in those with and without Down syndrome. It may help improve understanding and future care for people affected by chromosome differences.
This study is looking at how the immune system changes over time in people with Down syndrome, and how it may be affected by removal of the thymus gland. The goal is to understand why people with Down syndrome may age faster or have different immune health.
This research study aims to better understand Down syndrome by collecting health information, family history, and sometimes brain imaging or sleep data from children and adults with Down syndrome and their families. The goal is to advance knowledge that could improve health and development for people with Down syndrome.
