One-Time DNA Study for Vasculitis
NCT01241305
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to identify genes that increase the risk of developing vasculitis, a group of severe diseases that feature inflammation of blood vessels. Results of these studies will provide vasculitis researchers with insight into the causes of these diseases and generate new ideas for diagnostic tests and therapies, and will be of great interest to the larger communities of researchers investigating vasculitis and other autoimmune, inflammatory, and vascular diseases.

Dry Needling in Multiple Sclerosis
NCT06394310
Recruiting
The investigators are doing this study to see if a treatment called dry needling improves muscle spasticity (muscle tightness) in people who have Multiple Sclerosis. Dry needling involves using tiny needles, like those in acupuncture, to target some muscles, like calf muscles. It differs from traditional acupuncture as it focuses on treating or managing muscle spots, aiming to reduce muscle stiffness and pain. Dry needling may offer a minimally-invasive and medication-free approach to improve mu... Read More

Sympathetic-vascular Dysfunction in Obesity and Insulin Resistance (Vitamin C Study)
NCT04715022
Recruiting
The main purpose of research is to examine and understanding the development of hypertension in obese adults with insulin resistance. Findings from our studies will identify unique mechanisms that can be targeted to limit increases in vascular dysfunction and reduce the excessively high prevalence of hypertension and risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study is testing the health of the blood vessels and the activity of the nerves that control the blood vessels in adults with insulin re... Read More

Mitigating the Pro-inflammatory Phenotype of Obesity
NCT04934228
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to examine the hypothesize that 4 weeks of sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) inhibition (oral clonidine) will cause a significant reduction in circulating blood concentrations and endothelial cell expression of inflammatory markers (e.g., TNF-α, IL-6). Our study is a prospective study using a randomized, double-blinded design to test 4 weeks of SNA blockade (oral clonidine) compared with a BP-lowering control condition (diuretic, hydrochlorothiazide) or a placebo.
