Multidisciplinary Approaches to Translational Research In Conduct Syndromes (MATRICS)

Start date: Mar 1, 2014, End date: Feb 28, 2019,

Conduct Disorder (CD) is the key paediatric disorder characterized by severe aggression. It is heterogeneous, and our understanding of the neurobiology to subtype aggression is limited. MATRICS is a multidisciplinary consortium of academic partners and SMEs that focuses on the subtyping of aggression both within CD and of the broader cross-disorder trait of aggression. MATRICS will test the hypoth ...

Aggression subtyping for improved insight and treatment innovation in psychiatric disorders (AGGRESSOTYPE)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2018,

Aggression is a basic physiological trait with important roles throughout evolution, both in defence and predation. When expressed in humans in the wrong context, aggression leads to maladjustment, social impairment and crime. Despite this, knowledge about aggression aetiology is limited and current treatment strategies are insufficient. Contingent to a subdivision into impulsive and instrumental ...

Targeting and exploiting B cell functions for treatment in cardiovascular disease (Athero-B-Cell)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2018,

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality and morbidity is predicted to increase in Europe and worldwide in the next decades due to aging and the rise of diabetes and obesity. The link between metabolic and inflammatory disease is getting stronger, raising hopes for novel therapeutic targets to be exploited clinically. Clinical evidence generated by the Academic partners of the Athero-B-Cell Consorti ...

Personalized diagnostics and treatment of high risk coronary artery disease patients (RISKYCAD)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2017,

Although the accurate diagnosis and prevention of coronary artery disease (CAD), acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and death is a major public health issue, risk stratification for CAD with current diagnostic tools is not properly supporting clinical decision making. RiskyCAD’s overall goal is to identify novel biomarkers for asymptomatic patients in high risk of major coronary events, and develop ...

Translational Adolescent and Childhood Therapeutic Interventions in Compulsive Syndromes (TACTICS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Jun 30, 2017,

Compulsivity is characterized by a repetitive, irresistible urge to perform a behavior, the experience of loss of voluntary control over this intense urge, the diminished ability to delay or inhibit thoughts or behaviors, and the tendency to perform repetitive acts in a habitual or stereotyped manner. Compulsivity is a cross-disorder trait underlying phenotypically distinct psychiatric disorders t ...

European Collaborative Project on Inflamation and Vascular Wall Remodelling in Atherosclerosis (ATHEROREMO)

Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2013,

"The health of the EC population has never been better. However, serious public health problems remain, which cannot be ignored including high levels of premature death due to cardiovascular diseases. Thus, new preventive, diagnostic and therapeutic strategies against atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases are needed. The atherosclerotic changes of the vascular wall are central in the developmen ...
