Filter by:Aims and objectives: To determine the effect of position change that is applied after percutaneous coronary intervention on vital signs, back pain, and vascular complications. Background: In order to minimize the post-procedure complications, patients are restricted to prolonged bed rest that is always accompanied by back pain and and hemodynamic instability. Design: Randomized-controlled quasi experimental study Methods: The study sample chosen for this study included 200 patients who visited a hospital in Turkey between July 2014 and November 2014. Patients were divided into two groups by randomization. Patients in the control group (CG, n = 100) were put in a supine position, in which the head of the bed (HOB) was elevated to 15°, the patient's leg on the side of the intervention was kept straight and immobile; positional change was applied to patients in the experimental group (EG, n = 100).
Vegetarian and vegan diets have been shown to reduce cardiometabolic risk factors for chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes, and have been associated with decreased risk of these chronic diseases. The role of vegetarian and/or vegan dietary patterns and incident cardiovascular outcomes still remains unclear. To address these uncertainties, the investigators propose to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of the totality of evidence from prospective cohort studies to distinguish the association of vegetarian and/or vegan dietary patterns on the prevention and management of cardiovascular diseases. This proposed knowledge synthesis was commissioned by the Diabetes and Nutrition Study Group (DNSG) of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) and will be used to inform clinical practice and dietary guidelines, help improve health outcomes, and guide future research design.
Dyslipidemia is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular events. Statins have become the cornerstone for the prevention and treatment of atherosclerotic vascular diseases. However, after the comprehensive control of the traditional risk factors, including unhealthy lifestyle, hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, hyperglycemia and obesity, there is still a high risk of residual cardiovascular disease in patients with dyslipidemia. Triglyceride elevation is the most common type of dyslipidemia and constitutes an important component of cardiovascular residual risk. The geraniol has a variety of pharmacological effects, such as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, regulating cell apoptosis. Recent studies have confirmed that geraniol plays an important role in regulating glucose and lipid metabolism, and may have a synergistic role with statins. Gefarnate Tablets is a kind of anti-ulcer and gastritis treatment. It can increase the defense ability of gastric mucosa by improving the prostaglandin level and the concentration of amino hexose in the gastric mucosa. Geraniol is the main components of Gefarnate Tablets. In the previous study, the investigators found that geraniol induced autophagy through the SIRT1-AMPK-mTOR pathway and accelerated the degradation of triglycerides in liver cells, thus reducing the level of triglyceride in the serum of high fat diet mice. 6 patients with hyperlipidemia were received Gefarnate Tablets (100mg/ times, 3 times per day). A month later, the levels of serum triglyceride, total cholesterol, and low density lipoprotein cholesterol were decreased significantly. However, the above results need to be confirmed by the larger clinical research. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of Gefarnate Tablets on blood lipid levels in patients with hypertriglyceridemia and coronary heart disease treated with statins, provide more options for the treatment of lipid lowering treatment, reduce the risk of cardiovascular remnant, and improve the long-term prognosis of the coronary heart disease patients with residual hypertriglyceridemia.
The purpose of this study is to see if one month of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) combined with the placement of the Synergy® Stent with IVUS (intravascular ultrasound) is safe for patients who are at high risk of bleeding (HBR).
• The aim of the VIP study is to investigate the impact of vulnerability markers (inflammatory serum biomarkers for systemic vulnerability, coronary shear stress and vulnerability mapping for pancoronary vulnerability, and imaging-based plaque features for systemic vulnerability) on the rate of major adverse cardiovascular events caused by progression of the non-culprit lesion in patients with acute ST or non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction who undergo revascularization of the culprit lesion during the acute event. Furthermore, the study will evaluate the rate of progression of non-culprit lesions towards a higher degree of vulnerability, based on coronary computed tomography angiographic assessment at 1 year after enrollment.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate whether treatment with oral anticoagulation or oral anticoagulation and aspirin is better than aspirin alone in cardiovascular outcomes and saphenous graft patency in patients submitted to coronary artery bypass graft.
This study will look at performing a prophylactic limited left sided maze procedure during concomitant adult cardiac surgery to prevent the common occurrence of postoperative atrial fibrillation.
This is a single center, retrospective, observational cohort study to assess the safety and efficacy of drug coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty in all forms of coronary artery disease. The Investigators intend to report outcomes of all patients who received DCB angioplasty at their center during the above mentioned period for up to 10 years.
