Filter by:Patients with advanced coronary artery disease usually undergo incomplete myocardial revascularization due to the extension and diffuseness of the disease, with very poor distal arterial beds unsuitable for direct revascularization. This study was designed to test the hypothesis that direct, intramyocardial injection of autologous bone marrow cells may further improve myocardial perfusion in patients undergoing incomplete bypass surgery.
Individuals with serious mental illnesses (SMI) face high rates of medical comorbidity as well as challenges in managing these conditions. A growing workforce of certified peer specialists is available to help these individuals more effectively manage their health and health care. However, there is little existing research examining the effectiveness of peer-led medical self-management programs for this population. in this trial, participants were randomized to either the Health and Recovery Peer program (HARP), a medical disease self-management program led by certified peer specialists, or to care as usual. Assessments were conducted at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months.
In patients with unprotected left main disease (ULMD), angioplasty is emerging as an alternative technique. The investigators aimed to determine the rate of major cardiovascular events in patients treated by angioplasty for ULMD in a "real world" registry.
The purpose of the study is to make a head-to-head comparison of weight loss and interval training as methods of secondary prevention in overweight patients with ischemic heart disease.
Significant lesions in small coronary arteries are frequently found (35%-50%) in patients with coronary artery disease. Independently of the type of coronary angioplasty the restenosis and the need for repeat revascularization remains the main limitation, representing a challenging problem even in the DES (drug eluting stent) era. Recently has been developed drug eluting balloons (DEBs), which have been successfully tested in small series on in-stent restenosis, but few evidence is available in the context of small vessels disease. The current study has been designed to know, in one hand, the clinical efficacy of the Drug elluting balloon IN.PACT FALCON and, in other hand, the effectiveness, and the cost-effectiveness incremental analysis of DEBs (IN.PACT FALCON vs. DES ( RESOLUTE INTEGRITY) in patients with de novo lesions in small vessels.
This study is a double-blinded randomized multicenter placebo controlled trial to determine the effect of adalimumab on vascular inflammation (ascending aorta and carotides) in patients with moderate to severe psoriasis.
Tongxinluo is a kind of Chinese patent drug,which could promote blood circulation.Recent reports suggested that tongxinluo's effectiveness in reducing the thrombin activity.In this prospective randomized study,all patients in control group will receive blank placebo ,all patients in test group will receive tongxinluo.All patients will be followed up for one year.
The objectives of the PMS are to observe the frequency, type, and degree of device deficiency to assure the safety of the new medical device (XIENCE PRIME) as well as to collect information on evaluation of the efficacy and safety for reevaluation.
Patients with coronary artery disease requiring coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) are at risk for postoperative complications after surgery. The StaRT-CABG trial is the first large-scale (2,630 patients) that will investigate whether an additional treatment with statins (lipid-lowering medication) in high doses before CABG surgery can reduce the incidence of major post-surgery complications including death, myocardial infarction and stroke. The StaRT-CABG trial will be recruiting patients from 8 cardiac surgery centres in Germany and is expected to provide relevant clinical data on the efficacy of this novel treatment in order to optimize the care for all patients undergoing CABG.
Compared with standardized western medical drug therapy, this study is mainly about whether the combination of standardized western medical drug therapy and Chinese medical continued treatment, can further decrease the rate of cardiovascular events for stable angina patients and change the condition of angina.
