Key outcomes to be examined include...
- This Project Grant award from the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute (CFDA 93.837 Cardiovascular Diseases Research) aims to study the effects of structural racism on disparities in environmental exposures and cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcomes. The $123,368 award to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York (UEI LVVEB3CF8MB8), effective September 16, 2025 through August 31, 2030, will leverage New York's all-payer hospital database and integrate it with primary data...
- This Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) will support a study examining the link between stressful life events and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. The $156,858 award, granted on February 1, 2025, will enable the University of Pittsburgh to utilize deidentified data from 656 healthy adults to investigate how brain and behavioral measures of negative affect and cognitive reappraisal...
- The Project Grant award of $692,846.00 from the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute's Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) will fund the "Better Heart Study" at the University of Pennsylvania. The study aims to utilize behavioral science strategies to increase hypertension diagnosis and treatment in India, where hypertension prevalence remains high and many individuals are undiagnosed or not receiving care. The project will test two scalable behavioral...
- This $734,722 Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (CFDA 93.837 - Cardiovascular Diseases Research) supports a randomized controlled clinical trial to assess the impact of disclosing systolic blood pressure polygenic risk scores on blood pressure control, healthy lifestyle adherence, and cardiometabolic health among 300 hypertensive adults aged 18-55 in the United States. The study aims to evaluate whether providing individuals with information about their...
- The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute awarded a $133,125 project grant to Northwestern University under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) to investigate the relationship between early life social determinants of health, epigenetic changes, and young adult blood pressure levels. The overarching goal is to identify potential epigenetic mechanisms that mediate the association between social determinants and the development of hypertension, a key risk factor for...
This Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (CFDA 93.837 Cardiovascular Diseases Research) to Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey is for a study titled "Psychosocial and Cultural Determinants of Cardiometabolic Health Among Older Chinese Americans". The $721,720 study aims to investigate how psychosocial stress and sociocultural factors affect cardiometabolic health in older foreign-born Chinese Americans over a 4-year period. Key focus areas include examining day-to-day associations between psychosocial stressors, biobehavioral processes, and blood pressure, as well as evaluating the moderating roles of sociocultural factors on the long-term effects of psychosocial stress on cardiometabolic health. The project's findings are expected to guide the development of culturally-relevant interventions to promote cardiometabolic health in this understudied Asian American population.
