Study type
ObservationalDescribes the nature of a clinical study. Types include:
- Observational study — observes people and measures outcomes without affecting results.
- Interventional study (clinical trial) — studies new tests, treatments, drugs, surgical procedures or devices.
- Medical records research — uses historical information collected from medical records of large groups of people to study how diseases progress and which treatments and surgeries work best.

About this study
Systolic Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT) is a large scale randomized trial of ~ 9250 adults aged 50 years or older with high cardiovascular risk sponsored by NIH. The study is designed to recruit 45% of the study population with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). The trial will test the effects of low systolic blood pressure (SBP) goal of < 120 mm Hg versus the standard goal of < 140 mm Hg on the primary composite of cardiovascular events and death. One of the pre-specified secondary outcome is the progression of kidney disease. In this ancillary named SPRINT - Factors affecting Atherosclerosis STudy (FAST), the investigators plan to take advantage of the unique opportunities afforded by the parent study to examine issues that are of significant public health importance.
This is an observational study in SPRINT participants. This study will examine mechanistically, the factors affecting the progression of atherosclerosis in CKD.
Participation eligibility
Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate. There is no guarantee that every individual who qualifies and wants to participate in a trial will be enrolled. Contact the study team to discuss study eligibility and potential participation.
Inclusion Criteria:
All potential SPRINT participants at the SPRINT-FAST sites will be screened for eligibility to participate in SPRINT-FAST. The only medical exclusion criterion for SPRINT-FAST is contraindications to MRI (such as intracranial metal prostheses and claustrophobia). If there is no contraindication, the potential SPRINT participant will be asked whether they would also participate in SPRINT-FAST. Additional study procedures (MRI, blood and urine samples) of SPRINT-FAST will be explained. If the potential SPRINT participant consents for SPRINT-FAST, upon meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria for the parent study, they will be scheduled for MRI.
Exclusion Criteria:
Patients who cannot undergo MRI (weight > 300 lbs, certain types of hardware used in pacemakers, prostheses etc).
