Filter by:In a randomised, controlled cross-over manner, this trial aims to determine how short-term daily supplementation with a milk fat globule membrane-enriched ingredient impacts on cardiometabolic health and cognitive outcomes.
Wide variability in the antiplatelet effects of aspirin may lead to recurrent thromboembolic events. Several pilot studies have suggested potential benefits of taking aspirin at bedtime rather than in the morning. The primary objective of this study is to examine whether aspirin administration at bedtime versus in the morning provides a superior reduction in the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events among patients with or without established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, who are already taking aspirin.
The objective of the TOmAS Biobank is the conservation of biological material (plasma, saliva, and tissue explanted during surgery), genetic material (DNA, RNA, etc.), and clinical data ("material/data") collected from patients with cardiovascular diseases (CVD) as well as from control participants, in order to allow future studies evaluating novel proteomic, transcriptomic and epigenomic markers (as well as other emerging -omic technologies) for CVD (i.e. aortic stenosis, cardiomyopathy, myorcardial infarction, etc). The study of physiological and genetic factors will allow for the discovery of new genomic and other -omic (including proteomic, transcriptomic and epigenomic) biomarkers associated with CVD which will lead to an improved understanding of the underlying biology of CVD and may provide future insights into the prevention and treatment of this type of disease.
This project aims to explore the relationship between healthy lifespan and nutrition through a 10-year longitudinal study in Zhejiang Province. The cohort will include individuals in a wide range of age groups. The demographic, diet, lifestyle information, health status, and corresponding bio-samples will be collected carefully. It will give a deeper insight to the relation between nutrition and healthy aging and longevity. Ultimately, this research will contribute to evidence-based nutrition interventions to improve health outcomes and enhance quality of life.
In Ireland, over 3,000 patients are diagnosed with breast cancer annually, and 1 in 9 Irish women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. There is evidence that female breast cancer survivors are more likely to die of cardiovascular disease than their age-matched counterparts. This research is focused on evaluating pathways for identifying, managing, and overcoming side effects of cancer therapies that can negatively impact quality-of-life and overall outcomes for women during and after cancer treatment. The Cardio-oncology research team at GUH plan to capitalize on their expertise in both cancer care and cardiology to develop a care pathway for cancer patients who are at increased risk of developing heart disease.
This is an international prospective, multicentre, unblinded, randomised-controlled trial. The primary aim is to assess a targeted screening strategy to detect undiagnosed heart failure in high-risk patients.
The CRITICALLY study is a cluster randomized trial that will evaluate the effectiveness of a risk-based dynamic monitoring strategy for the primary prevention of cardiovascular high-risk Chinese adults.
The Stanislas Cohort is a monocentric familial longitudinal cohort originally comprised of 1006 families consisting of two parents and at least two biological children and deemed healthy, recruited in 1993-1995 at the Centre for Preventive Medicine of Nancy. This cohort was established with the primary objective of investigating gene-gene and gene-environment interactions in the field of cardiovascular diseases. The 5th visit of the STANISLAS Cohort will allow a better evaluation of the cardiovascular ageing of the population and the transition toward cardiovascular or renal diseases in relation with their genetic profile and environment.
There is limited support in primary care for diet and lifestyle, the cornerstones for therapy in clinical practice guidelines. Canadian dietitian services are not covered by provincial health plans and most physicians cite a lack of education, tools and time to counsel on nutrition. To engage healthcare professionals (HCP) and patients in the delivery of nutrition interventions, the investigators have developed the Portfolio Diet mobile application, as a direct translation of clinical practice guidelines for cardiovascular and diabetes risk reduction which recommend the Portfolio Diet, a plant-based dietary pattern of cholesterol-lowering foods. To increase confidence and comfortability in advising patients on the Portfolio Diet, the investigators have developed an HCP-facing toolkit (infographic and video) to communicate information on the Portfolio Diet and Portfolio Diet mobile application. To ensure validity of these resources, the investigators will conduct face and content validation of the HCP-facing toolkit and assess whether it increases HCP knowledge and potential use in practice, and assess HCP perspectives on the Portfolio Diet mobile application.
A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized, Two-Arm, Single-blind Superiority Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of the MagicTouch™ Sirolimus- Coated Balloon in the Treatment of Coronary Drug-Eluting Stent In-Stent Restenosis. Subjects with prior DES implantation presenting with ISR lesions undergoing PCI will be randomized into two groups: treatment with the MagicTouch™ sirolimus-coated balloon or POBA on a 2:1 basis. Approximately 492 subjects will be enrolled in the randomized study in a maximum of 50 study sites located in the United States. The goal is to establish the safety and efficacy of the MagicTouch™ sirolimus- coated balloon in treatment of coronary in-stent restenosis (ISR).
