Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This initiative focuses on collecting and analyzing biomarkers from blood, urine, and stool samples of subjects with cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. It aims to create a biorepository that facilitates collaboration between clinicians and basic scientists at the Cleveland Clinic Main Campus and the Lerner Research Institute. By leveraging this resource, the study seeks to enhance research on vascular diseases and improve understanding of their underlying mechanisms. The goal is to address the fragmented care and under-researched nature of these conditions.
