The award supports research to create a cardiovascular disease risk prediction model specific to MDS patients and to evaluate inflammatory proteins as biomarkers, enhancing clinical management of cardiovascular risks in this population.
Description
This project aims to develop a risk assessment model for cardiovascular disease in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) patients using clinical data and to characterize circulating inflammatory proteins as potential biomarkers. It includes developing and validating the model and a pilot study measuring inflammation proteins over time to improve cardiovascular health management in MDS patients.
