Filter by:A prospective randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, safety and efficacy study of metformin as add-on therapy in abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) OBJECTIVES Primary Objective - To demonstrate treatment efficacy of metformin in AAA in comparison to placebo or active comparator, as measured by growth of the AAA maximum diameter at 12 months Secondary Objectives - To asses inflammatory cytokines and parameters of neutrophil activation in AAA in response to metformin treatment by glucose - insulin - Interleukin-6 - markers of neutrophil activation (MPO, elastase, NGAL)
This is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm observational study to evaluate the efficacy and the morbi-mortality of LEO + in patients with wide neck intracranial aneurysms (fusiform, saccular or dissecting), ruptured or not ruptured.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and performance of complex endovascular aneurysm repair by inclusion in a longitudinal registry
The overall incidence of DWI positive for thromboembolic events following endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms is proximately 50%. Whether remote ischemic conditioning was safe and effective to reduce ischemic brain lesions on DWI after endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms is still unclear. The investigators' hypothesis is that remote ischemic conditioning is a safe and effective strategy to reduce new ischemic lesions in intracranial aneurysms patients undergoing endovascular treatment.
This prospective single-center cohort study aims to identify the incidence of cognitive dysfunction after unruptured aneurysm operation and explore the influencing factors. The primary end point is the cognitive dysfunction at 6 months after operation.The features of cognitive function, mental status, neurological function recovery, and quality of life of patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms at different time points would be analyzed.
This study evaluates a novel noninvasive method to dynamically monitor the effect of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and endovascular treatment of AAA (EVAR) on arterial pulse wave
According to the current view, cerebral aneurysms are acquired degenerative lesions resulting from hemodynamic stress. This single-center case-control study will be carried out at the Department of Neurosurgery, Regional Hospital in Sosnowiec, Medical University of Silesia in Katowice, Poland between June 2015 and June 2017. The aim of the study is to determine morphometric and hemodynamic parameters of aneurysmal and non-aneurysmal middle cerebral artery (MCA) bifurcations and to analyze their relationship with aneurysm formation. A minimum of 75 cases and 75 age- and sex-matched controls will be required for the study. Characteristics of the MCA bifurcations will be determined with computed tomography angiography (CTA) and transcranial color-coded sonography (TCCS). The following variables will be evaluated as potential risk factors for MCA aneurysm formation: radii and cross-sectional area of the main MCA trunk and its branches, tortuosity of MCA trunk, asymmetry ratio, area ratio, the angle between the post-bifurcation branches, the angles between the MCA trunk and the larger and smaller branch, volume flow rate, mean flow velocity and pulsatility index of the MCA. All morphometric and hemodynamic parameters will be assessed as potential risk factors for MCA aneurysm formation.
Effect of dilatation and curettage on the endometrial receptivity and pregnancy outcome in patients with recurrent implantation failure
Purpose of the study is the evaluation of the applicability of the percutaneous technique through double Proglide and Pre-Close Technique to the treatment of complex aortic aneurysms with thoracic endoprosthesis (TEVAR), fenestrated or branched (F / B-EVAR) in which patient-related factors, the devices used or the procedure, could affect the performance.
This project is aiming at the integration of a biomechanical computer program with a guidance code to simulate the endovascular repair (EVAR) procedure of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). The computational time associated with finite element simulation generally renders its usage impractical for real-time application. Based on data collected during clinical interventions and a priori knowledge of AAA and endovascular device mechanical modeling, the investigators are proposing a deformable registration between preoperative CT-scans and per-operative fluoroscopy that will take into account prior simulations of participant specific EVAR procedures. To avoid the computational cost of a full finite element simulation, the investigators propose a simplified and real-time compliant repetitive mechanical behaviour based on participant specific parameters. The results of this research will provide the Canadian industry with the first realistic deformable vascular geometry tool for live endovascular intervention guidance. The proposed biomechanical modeling can be translated to other vascular intervention procedure by adjusting the biomechanical parameters.
