Filter by:Background Coronary heart disease has become a serious challenge to China with its high prevalence and mortality. The impaired glucose regulation is prevalent in patients with cardiovascular disease. However, there are few drugs that interfere early with impaired glucose regulation. Ginkgo biloba extract is not only a commonly used drug for cardiovascular diseases, but also has a significant effect in reducing blood sugar. Therefore, this study used a single case randomized controlled trial to explore the efficacy of Ginkgo biloba pills in the treatment of coronary heart disease patients with impaired glucose regulation. Methods This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, three-period crossover trial for a single subject.A total of 12 subjects will be recruited in this trial. The trial is divided into three cycles, one cycle has two treatment periods. Ginkgo biloba pills and placebo will be randomized during the treatment period. The test period will be lasted 58 weeks and subjects will take 48 weeks. Subjects will be selected by the researcher strictly in accordance with the inclusion and exclusion criteria.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether administration of a pecto-intercostal fascial plane block (PIFB) with bupivacaine is a more effective therapy for postoperative analgesia after cardiac surgery as compared to patients who receive a sham block of normal saline.
In a cohort of symptomatic patients referred to coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA), the investigators aim: 1. To investigate and compare the diagnostic precision of Rubidium Positron Emission Tomography (Rb PET) and 3 Tesla Cardiac Magnetic Resonance imaging (3T CMRI) in patients where CCTA does not exclude significant coronary artery disease (CAD) using invasive coronary angiography with fractional flow reserve (ICA-FFR) as reference standard. 2. To evaluate the diagnostic precision of quantitative flow ratio (QFR) and ICA-FFR in patients where CCTA does not exclude significant CAD using Rb PET and 3T CMRI as reference standard. 3. To show superiority for the CADScor®System compared to the Diamond-Forrester score in detection of CAD with CCTA and ICA quantitative coronary angiography (ICA-QCA) as reference standard. 4. To study the diagnostic accuracy of computed tomography fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) in patients where CCTA does not exclude significant CAD with ICA-FFR as reference standard. 5. To identify and characterize genetic risk variants´ and circulating biomarkers´ importance in developing CAD. 6. To evaluate the bone mineral density in the hip and spine and correlate this to the degree of vascular calcification.
The SYNTAX-score has been proposed as a tool for risk stratification and guiding revascularization therapy in patients with complex coronary artery disease. There are limited data on the prognostic value of the SYNTAX-score among elderly patients. Aim of this study was to investigate whether age modifies the impact of the SYNTAX-score on all-cause mortality at 2 years after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
The primary objective of the Sleep and Stent II is to determine the prevalence of REM-OSA in DM versus non-DM patients undergoing clinically indicated PCI. The secondary objectives are to investigate the association between REM-AHI and (1) cardiac arrhythmia based on ambulatory ECG monitoring, (2) excessive daytime sleepiness, and (3) glycemic control in patients with DM. In addition, we will determine the prevalence of REM-OSA based on alternative definitions, including (a) overall AHI at least 5 with AHI REM/AHI NREM ratio at least 2; (b) overall AHI at least 5 with AHI REM/AHI NREM ratio at least 2 and with AHI NREM < 15; (c) overall AHI at least 5, AHI REM/AHI NREM ratio at least 2 and with AHI NREM < 8.
Acute myocardial infarction owes to a plaque rupture resulting in total (STEMI) or partial occlusion (NSTEMI) of the coronary artery. In patients with a partial occlusion and multi vessel disease (MVD), identification of the lesion responsible for the current event (culprit) at the time of the examination (coronary angiogram, CAG) can be difficult. Meanwhile, identification of the culprit lesion is vital to conduct proper treatment. Furthermore, treating an artery with no plaque rupture (non-culprit), imposes a small risk for complications, which may be fatal. Precise identification of the culprit lesion in NSTEMI patients with MVD remains unsettled The purpose of this study is proper and precise identification of the culprit lesion in NSTEMI patients with MVD.
Long-term prognostic value of macrovascular and microvascular coronary artery stenoses in each type of cardiomyopathy.
Compared with conventional treatment of the coronary heart disease,the aim of the research is to find out if the addition of Yangxinshi pills on the basis of conventional treatment can improve exercise tolerance of patients with coronary heart disease, improve quality of life or restore social function and mental health
The BIOSS Lim C pharmacoactive Stent has characteristics of design that makes it very suitable for the treatment of bifurcational lesions . The objective of the study is providing deeper knowledge into the results of this stent in the treatment of bifurcational lesions.
The purpose of the study: to increase the efficiency of diagnosis, treatment and prediction of the course of coronary heart disease in patients with adenocarcinoma of the prostate gland, depending on the hormonal status by determining the cardiovascular risk factors, factors of angiogenesis, structural and functional state of the heart, coronary vessels, kidney damage and their pharmacological correction.
