About this study
Official title: Hispanic Community Health Study / Study of Latinos (HCHS/SOL)
The Hispanic Community Health Study / Study of Latinos (HCHS/SOL) is a multi-center epidemiologic study in Hispanic/Latino populations to determine the role of acculturation in the prevalence and development of disease, and to identify risk factors playing a protective or harmful role in Hispanics/Latinos.
Read the detailed description
Study goals include studying the prevalence and development of disease in Hispanics/Latinos, the role of acculturation, and to identify risk factors that play protective or harmful roles in Hispanics/Latinos. The target population of 16,000 persons of Hispanic/Latino origin, specifically Cuban, Puerto Rican, Mexican, and Central/South American, to be recruited through four Field Centers affiliated with San Diego State University, Northwestern University in Chicago, Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the Bronx area of New York, and the University of Miami. Seven additional academic centers serve as scientific and logistical support centers.
Study participants aged 18-74 years underwent an extensive clinic exam and assessments to determine baseline risk factors. Annual follow-up interviews will be conducted for 2-4 years to determine health outcomes of interest. Study results will be disseminated through scientific journals and also conveyed to the communities involved in the study in order to improve public health at the local level.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Prevalence of cardiovascular and pulmonary disease risk factors in Hispanics/Latinos
This is a population-based cohort study of 16,400 Hispanic/Latinos. Objectives:
- Examination of the cohort following a standardized protocol
- Follow-up of the cohort to assess vital status, changes in health status, medication intake, and new cardiovascular and pulmonary events (fatal and non-fatal MI, heart failure, stroke, asthma, and COPD.
- Understand the relationship between changes in risk factors and protective factors and onset of CV and pulmonary disease progression
- Understand the relationship between changes in sociocultural factors and changes in health
- Understand the relationship between baseline CV risk profile of women of childbearing age and incidence of select pregnancy complications
Measured: Visit 2 data collection through 2019, preliminary and final analyses through 2019, Annual Follow-up through 2019

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Cardiovascular Disease, run by National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) at 1 site in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Jun 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Prevalence of cardiovascular and pulmonary disease risk factors in Hispanics/Latinos (time frame: Visit 2 data collection through 2019, preliminary and final analyses through 2019, Annual Follow-up through 2019). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02060344, which also lists 15 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
