Research Grant
[Cite as https://purl.org/au-research/grants/nhmrc/1114567]Brief description This unique project will examine the heart health of roughly 3500 11-12 year olds in Australia's only nationally-representative children's study. It will then examine factors that may contribute to differing heart disease progression. We will characterise established factors (such as cholesterol, blood pressure and diabetes), as well as measures of infection burden and inflammation to examine the innovative theory that childhood infection and/or its treatment contribute to poorer heart health.
