Targeting the Cholinergic Pathway in HIV-associated Inflammation and Cognitive Dysfunction
Although anti-retroviral therapy (ART) enhances life expectancy and overall quality of life (QoL), HIV-infected individuals are increasingly vulnerable to non-AIDS-related diseases including HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND). Inflammation is a primary mechanism in the pathogenesis of HAND and tobacco use may further exacerbate inflammation. Conversely, nicotine alone has anti-inflammatory effects suggesting …

Cardiovascular Inflammation Reduction Trial (CIRT): A randomized double-blind placebo controlled event-driven trial of weekly low-dose methotrexate (LDM) in the prevention of recurrent cardiovascular events among stable post-myocardial infarction patients with type 2 diabetes or metabolic syndrome
The combination of problems tends to occur together and raise your risk of heart disease and diabetes. Methotrexate is a drug commonly used to reduce inflammation (pain and swelling) in the joints of people with rheumatoid arthritis. It has been noticed that patients taking methotrexate for their arthritis seem to …

An International, Open Label, Randomised Controlled Trial Comparing Rituximab with Azathioprine as Maintenance Therapy in Relapsing ANCA-Associated Vasculitis
Vasculitis is inflammation of blood vessels in your body. The exact cause is unknown, but we do know that it is an autoimmune condition. This means that your body’s own immune system, that normally fights infection, is overactive and is damaging your own blood vessels.

Changes in Bone Quality Sarcopenia and Fat Distribution in HIV/HCV Patients after HCV Therapy
Understanding these associations in HIV+/HCV+ patients, how they differ from those of HCV+ and uninfected persons, and their relations with levels of inflammatory cytokines and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) will shed light on the relations between HIV/HCV infections and musculoskeletal health, fat distribution, and the role of inflammation. It is …

Molecular Imaging of the Underlying Mechanism of Cardiotoxicity in Patients with Light Chain Amyloidosis using Positron Emission Tomography (PET/CT)
In one cohort positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging will be used to measure inducible nitric oxide synthase (NOS) expression in the heart as a marker oxidative stress and inflammation using an investigational radiotracer called 18F-NOS. In the other cohort PET/CT imaging will be used to measure amyloid deposition as …
