Description: The goal of this funding opportunity for a Clinical Coordinating Center is to support a clinical trial which will test intervention(s) to reduce the progression of coronary atherosclerosis among young adults under the age of fifty years old who are at low or borderline 10-year risk ( 7.5%) for their first an atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) event, yet at high lifetime risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD). This opportunity will support a two-phased primary prevention clinical trial that will first efficiently screen the appropriate population eligible for the intervention and second determine which intervention(s) are most efficacious at reducing the onset or slowing the progression of subclinical coronary atherosclerosis. It is expected that phase one will overlap with phase two. Trial participants who are identified as meeting the subclinical coronary atherosclerosis criteria for enrollment in the screening stage will be immediately enrolled in stage two even although stage one recruitment will continue until the trial is completely enrolled. It is expected that the trial will have three arms. One will be a control or comparison arm and the second and the third arm will test different interventions than the control arm. The control arm should be current guideline based behavioral interventions. One of the two non-control arms is expected to involvement pharmacological intervention(s) with definite evidence of efficacious for primary prevention in older high risk adults such as LDL- lowering therapy and the other arm may involve intervention(s) with less definite evidence of primary prevention efficacy in older adults The long range goal of this research strategy is to determine if earlier treatment prevents more CVD than current guideline recommended treatment. Applications for both a CCC and a DCC must be submitted on the same application due date for consideration by NHLBI.

Value Ad helps new businesses save 50% to 80% on essential services like marketing and

What is Value Ad?
Value Ad is an innovative policy designed to foster a mutually beneficial relationship between two key groups: new businesses and service providers. This policy helps startups save significantly on essential services while enabling service providers to gain valuable traction and growth opportunities.
How is it a Win-Win Deal?
For New Businesses:
Cost Savings: Startups can save 50% to 80% on essential services such as website development and marketing. This means they don’t need to invest heavily upfront, making it easier to launch and grow their business.
Alternative Investment: The money saved through these discounts can be reinvested into other critical areas of the business, acting as an alternative investment that fuels further growth and development.
For Service Providers:
Initial Customer Base: Service providers, often tech startups themselves, can attract a significant number of initial customers by offering their services at a discounted rate. This helps them build traction and demonstrate value, which is crucial for attracting venture capital (VC) funding and other opportunities.
Marketing Efficiency: By providing affordable services, service providers do not need to spend heavily on marketing to acquire new customers. The discounted services themselves become a powerful marketing tool, bringing in customers who can spread the word and enhance the provider’s reputation.
Growth and Expansion: Attracting more customers through Value Ad helps service providers expand their client base and build long-term relationships, which can lead to increased revenue and business growth.
Alternative Investment for New Businesses:
For new businesses, the significant cost savings achieved through the Value Ad policy effectively serve as an alternative investment. Instead of spending large amounts on website development and marketing, they can leverage the affordable services provided by service providers. The saved funds can be redirected into other strategic areas of the business, enhancing overall growth and sustainability.
Benefits for Service Providers:
Service providers benefit from the Value Ad policy by gaining access to a ready pool of new customers who are drawn by the discounted rates. This initial customer base is crucial for:
Building Traction: Demonstrating product or service viability to potential investors.
Securing Funding: Enhanced customer traction and a growing user base can make the service provider more attractive to venture capitalists and other funding sources.
Market Penetration: Establishing a presence in the market quickly and efficiently without heavy marketing expenditures.
In Summary:
Value Ad is a strategic policy designed to create a win-win scenario for both new businesses and service providers. By offering significant discounts on essential services, startups can save and reinvest those savings, while service providers gain crucial initial customers and market traction. This mutually beneficial arrangement supports the growth and success of both groups, making Value Ad a powerful tool for business development and investment.
