Filter by:This is an interventional, non-randomized, controlled prospective study to treat HCV in mono-infected and HIV co-infected individuals and compare cardiovascular risk outcomes to HIV mono-infected controls. This pilot study will demonstrate whether functional cure of HCV reduces myocardial injury and risk of cardiovascular disease.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether aerobic exercise improves the participant's ability to recover function in the arm and leg affected by the participant's stroke. The investigators are also calculating the cost effectiveness of the rehabilitation interventions.
This clinical study evaluates the safety and efficacy of the treatment with the CoolLoop® cryoablation System (sclerotherapy of muscle tissue of the heart by freezing) in patients with atrial fibrillation (permanent atrial fibrillation excepted) over a follow-up period of 36 months. A further aim of this study is to evaluate the average duration of procedure and fluoroscopy times.
Researchers are trying to assess the appropriate dose of estrogen for decreasing the risk of cardiovascular disease in women who have removal of their ovaries at a young age, before the age of 46 years.
Greater advances are needed in two separate but related areas in healthcare: 1) the Clinical Decision Support Systems that complement the EHR use in support of routine patient care, population management and disease management; and 2) the use of the point-of-care observational data from the provider-patient encounter that support realworld medical research and healthcare quality measure assessment. Real-world evaluations of treatments of chronic diseases in the context of comorbid conditions and special populations (minorities, women, mentally ill, and those with addiction) are limited. The purpose of the OPERA database is to help address this unmet need in clinical research.
Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause for morbidity and mortality in general population. The incidence of cardiovascular disease and their poor outcome is well documented in a broad spectrum of connective tissue diseases, especially in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The risk of incident CVD is increased by 48% in patients with RA compared to the general population. RA is associated with 50% increase in the mortality in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD). One reason is the more frequent cardiovascular risk factors in RA patients compared with the general population. Patients with RA have a high risk of premature cardiovascular disease (CVD). The aim of the present study is to assess whether there are non-invasive measures that might predict arteriosclerosis in RA patients.
The purpose of the study is to register the occurrence of cardiovascular disease among type 2 diabetes patients across ten countries across the world. Participants will be asked to give information about their health. Participants will continue their normal way of life and will not get any medication other than prescribed to them by their doctor. Participants' participation will be one day/one visit at their doctor. The study will last for about 6 months in total.
Testing the efficacy of high intensity interval training (HIIT), as compared to current research supporting moderate intensity continuous training (MICT), as a means to improve cardiometabolic health after spinal cord injury.
Pilot and feasibility study; a complex intervention focusing on lifestyle change to increase physical activity and reduce cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk among high risk individuals.
This pilot study will help evaluate the effect of singing on heart rate variability and endothelial function (markers of cardiac health). If study results are positive this will support more research on the use of singing in cardiac rehabilitation.
