Clinical Trial: Endothelial Extracellular Vesicles as Biomarkers of Endothelial Activation in Children With Newly Diagnosed Hypertension

U.S., July 28 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07728643) titled 'Endothelial Extracellular Vesicles as Biomarkers of Endothelial Activation in Children With Newly Diagnosed Hypertension' on July 22.

Brief Summary: Childhood hypertension is associated with early endothelial dysfunction and an increased risk of future cardiovascular disease. Endothelial extracellular vesicles (EEVs) have emerged as promising biomarkers of endothelial activation; however, their role in pediatric hypertension remains poorly understood. This observational case-control study aims to compare circulating EEV concentrations between normotensive children and children with newly diagnosed, untreated primary hypertension. Th...
