Study Summary

Childhood adversity is highly prevalent, with 59% of the U.S. population reporting at least one adverse childhood experience (ACE). Substantial evidence links childhood adversity to cardiometabolic disease later in the life course, including heart disease, diabetes, and stroke, which are 3 of the top 10 causes of mortality in the United States. ACEs encompass many possible traumatic and distressing experiences, including abuse, neglect, or severe household dysfunctions. It is not surprising that the experience of those extreme events during the first decade of life has tremendous implications for the individual's psychological and physical health.

Primary Outcome

This test examines how the blood vessels respond to different challenges and expand. It is used to characterize the cardiovascular health of the subject's blood vessels. Different events and substances will be used (under an IND) to test how the blood vessels react. The test is completed using Laser Doppler Speckle Contrast. We will measure how much the blood vessels dilate. Greater dilation, better vascular function.
