Summary: Hypertension (HTN) has a greater impact on African Americans (AA) than any other U.S. racial group. Uncontrolled blood pressure (BP) contributes to higher rates of disability, death, and health resource use among AA. HTN is the single most influential risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), as well as a risk factor for the incidence of stroke, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, and dementia. ...

Summary: This is a research study to test the safety and effectiveness of using the drug alpelisib together with chemotherapy (nab-paclitaxel) and a drug called L-NMMA in patients with HER2 negative metastatic or locally advanced metaplastic breast cancer, who have not responded to previous treatments. Participants in this study in addition to the standard care chemotherapy will also receive the drug alpel...

Summary: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the second most common form of stroke, with an incidence of around 3000 cases per year in Hong Kong. Although it only accounts for around 20-30% of all strokes, ICH is the most severe form of stroke, contributing to 50% of all stroke mortality and the greatest disability burden in stroke. For those who survive their ICH, they are at high risk of ICH recurrence, st...

Summary: We will study obese hypertensive subjects in a randomized, crossover study to determine if two weeks sympathetic blockade improves endogenous glucose production. Subjects will be studied on 3 different occasions after two weeks of receiving either placebo, amlodipine (vasodilator arm) or moxonidine (study arm). The order of the studies will be determined using computer-generated randomization. Pat...

Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the short-term effects of three commonly prescribed antihypertensive drug classes (beta-blockers, ACE inhibitors, and calcium channel blockers) on postural balance and fall risk in adults with newly diagnosed primary hypertension. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do different antihypertensive drugs affect objective balance performance and fa...

Summary: Study design: Prospective, multicentric, randomized, comparative study Study duration: between 4 and 19 weeks depending on the study group.
