ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at whether certain blood fat measurements—the Triglyceride index and the ratio of triglycerides to "good" cholesterol (called HDL)—can help predict the risk of sudden heart problems, known as acute coronary syndromes, in young adults. The goal is to understand if these blood tests can give early warning signs for heart issues in people aged 18 to 40 who have already been diagnosed with these conditions.

If you are between 18 and 40 years old, have recently had a type of heart attack or similar heart problem, and are willing to take part, you might be eligible for this study. People over 40, those who have had previous heart attacks, or those with inherited cholesterol problems cannot join. Participants will be asked to give their consent and may have blood tests and other assessments to help researchers learn more about how these fat levels relate to heart health in younger people. The study is not yet recruiting, but it hopes to provide useful information that could improve early detection and care for heart conditions in young adults.
