Bio Spec Description:
Analyzed Blood Samples
Subjects will have a blood draw for the following biological factors that are important to cardiac health and may be modified by psychological states Inflammation will be measured via interleukin-6 IL-6 and high sensitivity C-reactive protein hsCRP soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 sICAM-1 tumor necrosis factor alpha TNF-α and overall cardiac prognosis will be assessed using N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide NT-proBNP A total of 15 mlcc of blood will be drawn this is equivalent to 3 tablespoons of blood
Retained Blood Samples
Given that additional more sensitivecritical markers of cardiac outcomes may be identified in the near future participants will be given the option to allow us to store their blood samples for additional biomarker analysis
