- This federal Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), provides $285,195 to Brigham & Women's Hospital to refine the process of identifying patients with uncontrolled hypertension and test an intervention for antihypertensive self-titration. The goal is to adapt and implement a strategy where patients can safely and effectively manage their own blood pressure medication dosages in the U.S....
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (CFDA 93.837 - Cardiovascular Diseases Research) provides $763,858 to Brigham & Women's Hospital, a subsidiary of the Partners Healthcare System, to assess the impact of improving cardiovascular disease (CVD) care for adults with diagnosed diabetes in diverse global settings. The project aims to develop a cardiovascular simulation model, PREDICT-DM, and use it to evaluate the clinical impact, costs, and...
- The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) awarded a $623,433 Project Grant under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) to Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) to implement and evaluate the "Community Vital Signs (CVS)" strategy. This 4-year project aims to increase rates of blood pressure screening and connections to care for hypertension in 12 community-based sites and 12 healthcare facilities across 12 Nigerian cities. The project leverages...
- This $2,981,544 Project Grant awarded by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) will fund research to assess the impact of asymptomatic cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection on cardiovascular disease risk in people living with HIV. The research team at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) will leverage data from a prior clinical trial of the CMV-specific antiviral drug letermovir, as well as a case-cohort...
- The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) awarded a $185,760 Project Grant under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) to Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU). The project, titled "Leveraging Informatics to Optimize Cardiovascular Risk Prediction in Women", aims to support the principal investigator in developing skills in informatics, epidemiology, and preventive cardiology to advance cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk assessment for women. The...
The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) awarded a $589,297 Project Grant under CFDA 93.837 - Cardiovascular Diseases Research to Temple University to evaluate the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a pharmacist-led intervention called INTEGRATE-RX. The intervention aims to improve cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcomes among persons living with HIV (PLWH) by: (1) integrating clinical pharmacists for CVD medication initiation and maintenance, (2) providing pharmacist-coordinated access to CVD essential medicines, and (3) implementing pharmacist-coordinated peer support for medication delivery and psychosocial counseling. The project will be conducted from August 2025 to July 2030 and includes a human-centered design phase to refine the intervention and evaluate its acceptability and appropriateness with various stakeholders.
