Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: • Being a participant of the Utrecht Health Project. • Having a signed written UHP informed consent, allowing follow-up through linkage with registries and sharing information across medical professionals. • Indicated in UHP informed consent to be interested in participating in further research. • Having had blood samples stored in the UHP biobank.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: • Receiving major (cardiovascular) surgery, and/or revascularisation therapy and/or transplantation treatment within 3 months after enrolment. • Below the age of 40 years and above 84. • Not willing to give written informed consent for UHP-UCC. • Not allowing incidental findings to be reported. If the patient gives broad consent, the patient allows to be informed about findings that may be important for him/her. If the patient and/or his representative refuse to agree on this, the patient will not be included.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
For the 1st research question: To what extent does the CVRM risk profile and co-morbid conditions differ between individuals with (UCC-SMART) and without (UHP-UCC) symptoms of heart failure, but with similar levels of echocardiographic structural- and functional measurements? The main outcome is: presence (and absence) of symptomatology belonging to potentially heart failure combined with referral to UMC Utrecht, assessed with the Heart Failure symptoms questionnaire. The main determinants are: CVRM profile and co-morbidity Potential confounders: age, sex, level of left ventricular dimensions and ejection fraction. For the 2nd research question: To what extent does the CVRM profile and co-morbid conditions differ between individuals without cerebral ischemic symptoms (UHP) from those with symptoms of cerebral ischemia (UCC-SMART), given a similar level of carotid structural and functional values? The main outcome is: presence (and absence) of symptomatology belonging cerebral ischemia based on questionnaire data combined with referral to the UMC Utrecht The main determinants are: CVRM profile and co-morbidity Potential confounders: age, sex, level of carotid atherosclerosis. For the 3rd research question: To what extent does Ideal Cardiovascular Health, assessed by 7 cardiovascular health metrics defined by the American Heart Association, differ between those with (UCC-SMART) and without (UHP-UCC) symptoms of CVD, but with similar levels of cardiac, aortic and carotid structural abnormalities? The main outcome is: presence (and absence) of symptomatology belonging vascular disease based on questionnaire data combined with clinical information from GP and/or UMC Utrecht The main determinants are: CVRM profile and co-morbidity Potential confounders: age, sex, level of subclinical disease of the heart, the carotid artery and the aorta. For the 4th research question: To what extent does the CVRM risk profile and co-morbid conditions differ
