Filter by:Psychosocial factors have been found to be associated with an increased risk for coronary artery disease incidence, progression and worse clinical outcomes. Patients with non-significant coronary artery disease (confirmed vascular irregularities, but <60% coronary occlusion) often present with complaints such as chest pain, which warrant screening by coronary angiography (CAG) or computed tomography (CT scan). The prognosis of this group of patients with mild stenosis remains to be investigated in more detail, and we propose that psychosocial factors play a role in the clinical prognosis and patient reported outcomes in this group. A special focus lies within examining personality characteristics, of which Type D personality is a primary predictor variable for prognosis. Type D personality is characterised by high negative affect and high social inhibition. In addition to psychosocial factors (personality, mood state, social support, SES), biomarkers(inflammation, clotting, DNA) as well as standard clinical risk factors (metabolic syndrome, activity level, smoking, medication use, disease severity) will be investigated. The goal of the proposed study is to investigate a preexisting psycho-biochemical risk profile for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and patient perceived symptoms in a group with angiographically or CT-scan confirmed, non-significant coronary artery disease.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate sternal bone healing following a full median sternotomy versus standard of care for sternal closure with wire cerclage. Additional outcomes on post-operative pain and analgesic usage, patient function and quality of life, and complications will also be collected. A health economics study will also be conducted, in which cost and billing data will be collected from sites participating in this clinical study.
This study was advocated by institute of Basic Research in Clinical Medicine,China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences in October 2011. It was funded by China major scientific and technological specialized specialized project for 'significant new formulation of net drugs'. Kudiezi(Yueanxin) is kind of Chinese Medicine injiection used for treating corinary heart diswese、angina pectoris and stroke in many Chinese hospitals. The purpose of this study is to determine adverse drug events or adverse drug reaction in large sample size 30,000 patients.
The purpose of this study is to assess the affect of febuxostat on coronary artery flow in patients with coronary artery disease.
The purpose of this study is get to know what and how Shuxuening injection in hospital results in adverse events or adverse drug reactions from a cohort event monitoring.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of statin on the coronary microcirculation dysfunction measured after percutaneous coronary intervention.
Fractional Flow Reserve derived from computed tomography(FFRCT) is a novel method for determining the physiologic significance of coronary artery disease (CAD), which will help physicians in clinical decision-making and decrease the medical cost, but its ability to identify patients with ischemia has not been adequately examined to date.
The iFRCT study is a prospective, multicenter study to evaluate the diagnostic performance of iFRCT with the use of ≥64-detector row CT scanners for the detection and exclusion of significant obstructive coronary artery disease, defined by invasive fractiona flow reserve (FFR) as the reference standard.
The GLOBAL study is an international multi-center, prospective study designed to enroll up to 10,000 consecutive eligible subjects who are clinically referred for coronary CT angiography for assessment of suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). The purpose of the study is to perform extensive biomarker analysis of atherosclerosis in patients phenotyped using advanced imaging modalities of atherosclerosis.
This randomized controlled trial (RCT) will examine a case management program for patients suffering from coronary heart disease with multimorbidity in Mannheim, Germany. The trail consists of 3 treatment arms: 1) intensified case management; 2) social interaction alone 3) standard care. The main objectives are to evaluate how case management and social interaction alone compared to standard medical care affect the primary and secondary outcomes: physical health, quality of life, loneliness, depression, self-efficacy, outcome expectancies, social support, health locus of control, lifestyle behavior, social network, vulnerability, intention, severity, health worries and cognitive functions.
