Summary

This study collects blood and urine samples from healthy adults and patients with heart, lung, or blood vessel conditions. Researchers will use these samples to study genes, proteins, and other substances in the lab. The goal is to support basic and translational research that could lead to new discoveries. Participants provide samples during short visits, and no treatment is given.
