Filter by:In this study, a multicentre, double-blind, randomized controlled study based on cognitive training was conducted in patients with coronary heart disease and cognitive impairment but without dementia， to evaluate the effectiveness of computer-based digital therapy in improving the cognitive function of such patients.
Durable polymer was considered to be the cause of a chronic inflammatory response that leadas to impaired endothelialization of the stent strut and subsequently increases the risk of stent thrombosis. Ultimaster stent (Ultimaster, Terumo Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) are thin strut, silorimus-eluting, biodegradable copolymer to completely degrade over 3-4 months.
Angiography-derived Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) Virtual Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) plan is superior to conventional angiography-guided PCI in obtaining a good final physiology result, which is, in turn, associated with better prognosis. This has been demonstrated in a population with a relatively low lesion complexity. Therefore, whether angiography-based FFR virtual PCI could guarantee the same results in some complex anatomical settings (tortuous or calcific vessels, tandem or bifurcation lesions) is not known, also given the inherent limitations of the 3Dimensional (3D)-reconstruction. The ability of invasive FFR to achieve the same result if compared to angiography-guided PCI has been questioned by recent studies. Recent technological developments, namely the design of pressure wire microcatheters may allow an easier handling of the procedural planning and guidance. The rationale of the AQVA II study is to test whether a longitudinal FFR-based virtual PCI either angio- or microcatheter- derived is able to improve the post-PCI physiology value if compared to angio-guided PCI in complex and high-risk indicated procedures (CHIP).
This study aims to collect data on clinical outcomes of real world patients undergoing FFRangio guided treatment for coronary artery disease in Japan and Israel through a retrospective multicentre registry.
The goal of this prospective cohort study is to investigate cardiac comorbidity in a random sample of approximately 1200 patients from a population of outpatients with rheumatoid arthritis and axial spondyloarthritis referred to collectively as inflammatory arthritis (IA). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Using conventional echocardiography, the investigators aim to determine the prevalence of overt and asymptomatic cardiac dysfunction in a large random sample of outpatients with IA. Cardiac dysfunction will be evaluated by echocardiography and cardiac biomarkers (NT-pro-BNP, hs-TNT and hs-CRP). - In patients without known heart disease: Using 2, 5 and 10 year follow-up, the investigators aim to examine if advanced echocardiography can be used to detect early signs of heart disease by investigating the clinical significance of adding deformation measures - alone and in combination with selected biomarkers - to conventional risk factors in the cardiac risk assessment of patients with IA Participants will undergo an echocardiographic examination in combination with a general health assessment including obtainment of cardiac biomarkers and a electrocardiogram. Using advanced echocardiography - Tissue Doppler Imaging, 2- dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography, 3D-echocardiography and 3-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography - the investigators also aim to compare myocardial deformation parameters of patients with IA to a gender and age matched control group without IA from the Copenhagen City Heart Study.
This is an retrospective extended study of a randomized clinical trial (The HOST-EXAM trial ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02044250). Investigators will perform a retrospective analysis of all participants enrolled in this trial will be performed, until the longest follow-up duration.
The Super Rehab: Can we Achieve Coronary Artery Disease Regression? (a feasibility study) proposes to test the use of a novel lifestyle intervention (Super Rehab), in addition to standard care, for patients with both coronary artery disease and metabolic syndrome. This is a feasibility study that will test study processes, enable optimisation of the intervention and provide data for power calculations to enable design of pivotal trials of the clinical effectiveness of Super Rehab.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate respiratory parameters and functional capacity in coronary artery patients.
Surgical coronary bypass surgery (CABG) has been demonstrated to confer significant survival benefit over medical therapies patients with LMCA in earlier clinical trials1,2,3 and therefore was the revascularization modality of choice for a long time. Recently, several randomized controlled trials and meta-analyses have shown percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to be non-inferior to CABG in the treatment of LMCA disease4,5,6,7,8. PCI is now considered to be an appropriate alternative to CABG for LMCA disease in patients with suitable anatomy9,10. Over recent decades, LMCA PCI has been performed in patients with increasing anatomical complexity and higher risk profiles (e.g. elderly, heart failure, renal failure etc). 11,12. In recent years, remarkable advancement in interventional techniques and technologies such as 2nd/3rd generation DES and potent antiplatelet therapy have contributed to the improvement of PCI success rates and reduction in complications and adverse events. Knowledge related to long term temporal variation of clinical and procedural characteristics and outcomes in patients with LMCA disease treated with PCI will therefore be important to inform and define future treatment strategies. This proposal aims to evaluate time-trends and regional differences in clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with LMCA disease treated with PCI in the Asia-Pacific region
ECG is one of the classic tests for coronary artery disease, but patients with coronary artery disease often have no onset of typical symptoms at the time of consultation, so it is difficult to capture ischemic changes on a conventional ECG. In this study, a diagnostic test was performed to assess the diagnostic value of wearable ECG for coronary artery disease, with the gold standard of coronary angiography and quantitative flow fraction. In addition, we followed up with the enrolled participants for 1 year to assess the relationship between wearable ECG and long-term prognosis.
