Filter by:Physical inactivity is known to increase post meal blood sugar levels in young, active populations. However, how quickly this may occur in active, older adults is not clear. Further, the relationship between blood vessel health and blood sugar disturbances which occur to acute physical inactivity is not clear. It is unknown if impairments in blood vessel function precede increases in blood sugar levels that occurs with inactivity in an aging population. This study aims to determine if short term reductions in physical activity impair blood vessel health and blood glucose control to a greater extent in an aging population compared to a young population. The investigators hypothesize that 3 days of reduced physical activity will result in impaired blood vessel function and glycemic control in an aged population.
The main goal of this project is to constitute a collection of biological samples, obtained through the clinical activity of the Centre for Screening and Prevention of Atherosclerosis at Toulouse University Hospital, managing patients in primary or secondary prevention for cardiovascular (CV) diseases. The main objective is to validate new biomarkers with prognostic value regarding the onset of future CV events. Besides, the biological collection will enable patho-physiological studies on atherosclerosis related diseases.
This is a post-market, standard of care, real-world observational study to assess the clinical outcomes of the SYNERGY XLV (MEGATRON) Coronary Stent System for the treatment of subjects with atherosclerotic lesion(s) ≤ 28 mm in length (by visual estimate) in native coronary arteries ≥3.50 mm to ≤5.00 mm in diameter (by visual estimate). This Post Approval study is a cohort associated with the Evolve 4.5/5.0 (SYNERGY LV) Post Approval Study, which is registered under ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03875651.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the implementation of inclisiran in a regional primary care setting in the UK Inclisiran, also known as KJX839, is a medication made to reduce the level of "bad" cholesterol (LDL-cholesterol) in the blood. Inclisiran works in a way that makes the liver produce less of a substance called 'PCSK9'. PCSK9 reduces the ability of the liver to remove LDL-cholesterol from the blood. By lowering the production of PCSK9, Inclisiran leads to more LDL-cholesterol being removed by the liver from the blood, thereby reducing LDL-cholesterol overall.
This randomized controlled trial will evaluate whether use of the PulsePoint system increases bystander CPR or defibrillator use compared to standard dispatch procedures in patients who suffer non-traumatic, out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in a public location. Half of all suspected cardiac arrest 9-1-1 calls in a public location will receive PulsePoint alerts (treatment arm). The other half of this eligible patient cohort will receive standard dispatch procedures (control arm).
This study is to assess LDL-C reductions at Week 52 with monthly (Q4W [≤31 days]) dosing of LIB003 (lerodalcibep) 300 mg administered subcutaneously (SC) compared to placebo in patients with CVD, or at high risk for CVD, on a stable diet and oral LDL-C lowering drug therapy
The aim of this study is to establish, in a pilot RCT (approx. N=50 participants) with a time- and attention-matched health enhancement control, (a) the feasibility of the recruitment procedures (screening, eligibility, enrollment rates), and feasibility and acceptability of the (b) MBCT and control interventions (adherence, retention, fidelity, satisfaction, group videoconferencing delivery) and (c) data collection procedures by group (adherence, satisfaction). Hypothesis 1a: Recruitment will be feasible as evidenced by screening, eligibility, and enrollment rates; (1b) the MBCT and control interventions and (1c) data collection procedures in both groups will be feasible and acceptable.
The study is to assess the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy after 48 and 72 weeks with monthly (Q4W [<31 days]) dosing of subcutaneous (SC) LIB003 300 mg administered in patients with CVD or at high risk for CVD (including HoFH and HeFH) on stable diet and oral LDL-C lowering drug therapy who completed one of the LIB003 Phase 3 base studies.
This study is to assess LDL-C reductions at Week 52 with monthly (Q4W [≤31 days]) dosing of LIB003 (lerodalcibep) 300 mg administered subcutaneously (SC) compared to placebo in patients with very-high risk for CVD on a stable diet and oral LDL-C lowering drug therapy.
The study explored the effects of the cardiovascular disease risk reduction intervention on diabetes fatalism, self-care activities, social support, knowledge, perceived self-managment among a rural population.
