Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to use MRI images using the OS-CMR technique to view the differences in the hearts of healthy volunteers and participants with a condition called Metabolic Syndrome. Our objectives for this project are to compare these two groups and to view how health risks, blood test results, and the time since a Metabolic diagnosis can affect heart health.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Diagnostic Test: Cardiac MRI

Detailed Description

Myocardial oxygenation changes during vasoactive breathing maneuvers, observed with oxygenation-sensitive cardiac MRI, will be identified and compared between individuals considered healthy and those fitting the criteria of the Metabolic Syndrome.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Patient Participant

Participants with known Metabolic Syndrome (MetS)

Diagnostic Test: Cardiac MRI
Participants will undergo an oxygenation-sensitive cardiac MRI and, during the scan, perform a vasoactive breathing maneuver composed of a period of paced hyperventilation followed by a voluntary maximal breath hold.
Other Names:
  • Breathing Maneuvers
  • Healthy Volunteers

    NonS-moking participants with no known pre-existing conditions and who do not take any medications

    Diagnostic Test: Cardiac MRI

    Other Names:
  • Breathing Maneuvers
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Global and segmental Myocardial oxygenation reserve (MORE) [Baseline]

      A t-test will be used to assess the difference in global and segmental MORE, at rest, during hyperventilation, and throughout breath hold, between healthy and volunteers and MetS patients.

    2. Relation between Breathing maneuver induced MORE and known MetS risk factors. [Baseline]

      A linear regression will assess the relation between Breathing maneuver induced MORE and known MetS risk factors, biomarkers, and time since diagnosis.
