Future Research Opportunities
Basic | Clinical | Population | |
---|---|---|---|
SDoH | Identify mechanisms of SDoH influence on CVD risk and pathogenesis | Develop multi-level interventions to reduce health disparities | Leverage cohort studies and novel data sources to further evaluate CVD-SDoH associations |
Resilience | Identify the molecular drivers of resilience and factors that influence ARDS/ALI recovery | Develop multi-level interventions that promote resilience in vulnerable populations | In cohort studies, assess longitudinal impacts of adverse environmental conditions on resilience |
CVH | Identify biomarkers in childhood, and trajectories through adolescence, to examine associations of early life environment with CVD risk | Develop interventions to improve dietary and medication adherence for older patients with HF | Elucidate impacts of adverse pregnancy outcomes on CVH trajectories |
HTN | Leverage imaging and single-cell technologies to assess HTN-induced changes at cellular- and tissue-levels | Develop clinical trials for early intervention and new treatments for diverse hypertensive patient populations | Develop deeply-phenotyped cohorts for improved HTN risk and treatment prediction |
HF | Elucidate HF pathophysiology after onset of atrial fibrillation | Develop improved algorithms for clinical decision-making processes for advanced HF | Conduct deep phenotyping studies to define HFpEF subtypes |
VCID | Develop animal models that recapitulate progressive changes in human dementia | Develop clinical trials that test efficacy of CVD interventions for VCID | Elucidate population-level differences in VCID risk and trajectory. |
