First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This long-term study is following over 10,000 healthy adults aged 50-75 to understand how the body's natural regulation of heart rate and blood pressure relates to future heart disease, stroke, and sudden death. Participants undergo non-invasive tests like a special ECG and carotid artery ultrasound. The goal is to identify early markers that could predict cardiovascular problems years in advance.
