Risk factors and health impact in people with genetic thoracic aortic disease

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 is an observational survey that collects clinical history and patient-reported information to map behavioural and cardiovascular risk profiles in people with genetic aortopathies. Data will include lifestyle factors, pregnancy-related events, menopausal status, psychological measures, eating disorders, and comorbid autoimmune or inflammatory bowel disease to explore how these factors interact. Information is gathered at IRCCS Policlinico San Donato using questionnaires and clinical records without experimental interventions. The goal is to define patterns that could inform improved risk stratification and supportive care for this population.
