RECRUITING

Reversing Glucose and Lipid-mediated Vascular Dysfunction

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The purpose of our study is to understand the extent to which the blood vessels are affected by glucose and fat (lipids) in lean healthy adults and if these changes in the blood vessels contribute to the development of high blood pressure.
