1 Essential Arterial Hypotension and Allostasis Registry

The essential arterial hypotension and allostasis registry is a prospective, observational research that has the purpose of demonstrating that essential blood pressure (BP) disorders and the associated comorbidities are a result of the inappropriate allostatic response to daily life stress. This required a functioning brain orchestrating the evaluation of the threat and choosing the response, this is a mind-mediated phenomenon. If the response is excessive it contributes to high BP, if deficient to low BP, and the BP itself will identify the allostatic pattern, which in turn will play an important role in the development of the comorbidities. To do so, consecutive patients of any age and gender that visit a cardiologist's office in Medellin, Colombia, are recruited. Individuals are classified according to their arterial BP and allostasis and follow them in time to see what kind of diseases develops the most (including BP) in the follow up according to the categorization of the characteristic chosen and after adjustment for confounder's variables. In addition, stress events with their date are registered. HYPOTHESIS The causes of the diseases are multifactorial. Physical, biochemical, psychological, social, and cultural dimensions of development dynamically interact to shape the health development process. A person´s health depends on their: 1. Biological and physiologic systems 2. External and internal environment (a) physical, b) internal behavioural and arousal state as registered by the brain. 3. Their interaction. The allostatic mechanisms to the internal and external stressors (allostatic load) involves a network composed by: 1. Functional systems; mediated by: 1. The Autonomic Nervous System 2. The endocrine system 3. The immune system 2. Structural changes: whenever the internal and/or external stressors are long lasting and/or strength enough, they may induce changes in: 1. Epigenetic, endophenotypes, polyphenism. 2. Plasticity 3. The interaction between a) and b). The network response do not affect exclusively the BP, propitiating the development of comorbidities, which may prompt strategies for prevention, recognition and ultimately, treatment. The allostatic model defines health as a state of responsiveness. The concept of psycho-biotype: The allostasis is the result of both: biological (allostasis) and psychological (psychostasis) abilities. It is proposed that both components behave in similar direction and magnitude. Immune disorders may be associated with the development of cancer. High BP population has a higher sympathetic and lower vagal tone, this has been associated with a decrease in the immune´s system function. Resources and energy depletion: Terms like weathering have been used to describe how exposures to different allostatic loads gradually scrape away at the protective coating that keeps people healthy. It is postulated that High BP individuals have more resources and energy.

2 Dietary Prevention of Heart Failure in Hypertensive Metabolic Syndrome

Tens of thousands of Veterans have heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), and suffer poor quality of life, frequent hospitalizations, and high death rates. Older Veterans and those with high blood pressure, obesity, and the metabolic syndrome (abnormal cholesterol and resistance to insulin's effects) are particularly at risk for HFpEF. However, it is not clear why only some Veterans in this risk group eventually develop HFpEF. Extensive information from experimental animal models and some human studies suggests that dietary patterns in vulnerable 'salt-sensitive' people could contribute to the risk for HFpEF. Reducing salt intake and increasing overall dietary quality in at-risk Veterans could prevent heart and blood vessel damage that ultimately leads to HFpEF. Reducing the development of HFpEF, which currently has no definitive treatment, is highly relevant to the VA's mission to emphasize prevention of disease and population health.

3 Using the Electronic Health Record to Identify and Promote Goals-of-Care Communication for Older Patients With Serious Illness

The objective of this protocol is to test the effectiveness of a Jumpstart intervention on patient-centered outcomes for patients with chronic illness by ensuring that they receive care that is concordant with their goals over time, and across settings and providers. This study will examine the effect of the EHR-based intervention to improve quality of palliative care for patients over the age of 65 with chronic, life-limiting illness with a particular emphasis on Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). The specific aims are: 1) to evaluate the effectiveness of a novel EHR-based (electronic health record) clinician Jumpstart guide, compared with usual care, for improving the quality of care; the primary outcome is documentation of a goals-of-care discussion during the hospitalization. Secondary outcomes focus on intensity of care: ICU use, ICU and hospital length of stay, costs of care during the hospitalization, and 30-day hospital readmissions; and 2) to conduct a mixed-methods evaluation of the implementation of the Jumpstart intervention, guided by the RE-AIM and CFIR frameworks for implementation science, incorporating quantitative assessments of effectiveness, implementation and maintenance and qualitative assessments of clinician perspectives on barriers and facilitators to future implementation and dissemination.

4 Integrated Distance Management Strategy for Patients With Cardiovascular Disease (Ischaemic Coronary Artery Disease, High Blood Pressure, Heart Failure) in the Context of the COVID-19 Pandemic

Management of known patients with cardiovascular disease (in particular the whole spectrum of atherosclerotic ischaemic coronary artery disease, essential hypertension under treatment, and also patients with chronic heart failure under medication) and with other associated chronic pathologies, with obvious effects on the management of the pandemic with modern / distance means (e-Health) of patients at high risk of mortality in contact with coronavirus. Given the Covid-19 Pandemic, all the above complex cardiovascular patients are under the obligation to stay in the house isolated and can no longer come to standard clinical and paraclinical monitoring and control visits. Therefore, a remote management solution (tele-medicine) of these patients must be found. The Investigators endeavour is to create an electronic platform to communicate with these patients and offer solutions for their cardiovascular health issues (including psychological and religious problems due to isolation). The Investigators intend to create this platform for communicating with a patient and stratify their complaints in risk levels. A given specialist will sort and classify their needs on a scale, based on specific algorithms (derived from the clinical European Cardiovascular Guidelines), and generate specific protocols varying from 911 like emergencies to cardiological advices or psychological sessions. These could include medication changing of doses, dietary advices or exercise restrictions. Moreover, in those patients suspected of COVID infection, special assistance should be provided per protocol.

5 An Open-label, Single-dose, Randomized, Two-way, Two-period Crossover Study to Compare the Pharmacokinetics and Bioavailability of a Novel Furosemide Regimen Administered Subcutaneously Versus the Same Dose (80 mg) Administered Intravenously in Subjects With Chronic Heart Failure

The proposed study aims to compare the pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of intravenous and subcutaneous Furosemide. Although these regimens are not intended to be bioequivalent, they are both expected to achieve therapeutic plasma levels and induce effective diuresis. The test formulation in this study is a buffered solution, Furosemide Injection Solution at 30 mg/mL at pH 7.4 (range 7.0 to 7.8) and is intended for SC injection according to the instructions in the protocol. A commercial formulation of Furosemide Injection, USP will serve as the reference drug in this study, which will be administered by IV bolus. It contains furosemide 10 mg/mL in solution at alkaline pH of 8.0 to 9.3 and is marketed for IV and IM injection. The primary objective of the study is to estimate the absolute bioavailability of furosemide administered by subcutaneous infusion compared with an equivalent dose of furosemide administered by IV bolus administration.

9 Impact of COVID-19 on the Benefit of Cardiac Rehabilitation

The COVID-19 attack is polymorphic with otorhinolaryngological, pneumological, cardiac, digestive, neurological, muscular attacks with a higher mortality in subjects with comorbidity [> 70 years old, cardiovascular history in particular Arterial hypertension (hypertension ), heart disease…]. This polymorphism is linked to vasculitis and the immune response. Patients with cardiovascular disease are particularly at risk of decompensating, particularly due to the increased metabolism induced by viral infection and reduced cardiovascular capacities. On the cardiovascular level, two sides can be considered. On the one hand, cardiovascular disease (hypertension, coronary artery disease) is a comorbid factor. On the other hand, the myocardial damage reflected by the increase in troponin or an alteration of the ejection fraction is a very clear risk factor for death or severe form. Cardiovascular involvement is particularly high in hospitalized and deceased patients. The odds ratio calculated in a meta-analysis of severe forms of covid-19 with hypertension is 3 [1.9; 3.1], for cardiovascular pathologies of 2.93 [1.73; 4.96]. Recommendations were made for pulmonary rehabilitation but not for cardiovascular rehabilitation. Cardiac rehabilitation is indicated in most cardiovascular pathologies (after acute coronary syndrome, after coronary angioplasty, in heart failure, after coronary or valve heart surgery, etc.). It consists of a multidisciplinary approach combining therapeutic pharmacological adjustment, physical activity, therapeutic education in order to improve physical capacities for exertion and reduce morbidity and mortality. The physical exercises can be endurance or resistance type. Capacity gain at the end of rehabilitation is measured by visual scales, quality of life questionnaires, and a stress test at the start and end of rehabilitation. Most often, rehabilitation centers only do the stress test and estimate through questioning for subjective improvement. The hypothesis is that patients who contracted COVID-19 would have lower cardiac capacities after recovery from the infection than patients without COVID-19 or that their capacity for recovery would be less. There could be a difference in recovery after cardiac rehabilitation between the two populations regardless of whether the cardiac damage requiring rehabilitation was triggered by COVID-19 or was pre-existing.
