Filter by:The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the investigational BIOTRONIK PRO-Kinetic Energy stent in subjects with atherosclerotic disease of native coronary arteries.
The purpose of this study is to make a cohort event monitoring to see whether and how Shenmai injection in hospital results in adverse events or adverse drug reactions.
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 project for 'significant new formulation of new drugs'.

Primary objectives: A. To evaluate the effect of Zortress® versus standard immunosuppression therapy on progression of CAC as evidenced by changes in Agatston scores from baseline and at 6, and 12 months in renal transplantation patients. B. To investigate progression of CAC in patients undergoing renal transplantation within the study period. Secondary objectives: 1. To evaluate in renal transplantation the effect of Zortress® versus standard immunosuppression therapy on bone mass as evidenced by changes in quantitative computed tomography (QCT) and dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). 2. To evaluate in renal transplantation the effect of Zortress® versus standard immunosuppression therapy on activity of bone forming and resorbing cells as evidenced by changes in bone histology. 3. To evaluate in renal transplantation the effect of Zortress® versus standard immunosuppression therapy on biochemical parameters of bone turnover as evidenced by changes in serum Parathyroid Hormone (PTH), Bone-Specific Alkaline Phosphatase (BSAP), Tartrate-Resistant Acid Phosphatase (TRAP), Sclerostin, Receptor Activator of Nuclear factor Kappa B Ligand (RANKL), Osteoprotegerin (OPG), , serum CTX (C-terminal telopeptide of type 1 collagen), and urinary NTX (N-terminal cross link telopeptide). 4. To evaluate in renal transplantation the effect of Zortress® versus standard immunosuppression therapy on cardiovascular events, graft rejection and patient survival.
Gingival inflammation has been associated with cardiovascular diseases, including heart attack and stroke, because of elevation of blood risk markers such as cholesterol, glucose and C reactive protein. The treatment of gingival diseases decreases the concentration of these risk factors in the blood of cardiovascular patients.
The aim of this study is to determine on preliminary basis weather an elevated pro-calcitonin level can be used to assess ischemia as a result of coronary artery complications during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
There is currently no published algorithm for secondary prevention prognosis of CHD that is representative of the England GP-registered population and that includes both symptomatic and asymptomatic patients (as identified through primary care). In this paper the investigators will exploit routinely collected information in clinical practice to model CHD prognosis based on a large contemporary open cohort of stable CAD patients. Although the investigators model is based on data from GP practices in England only, the investigators believe that this population is sufficiently heterogeneous in terms of ethnic mix, socioeconomic background, predisposing characteristics and lifestyles to generate a prognostic model with good generalizing power to the wider population. Among the research questions the investigators will try to answer is whether established risk factors for primary care prevention (smoking, hypertension, dyslipidaemia, diabetes) are also reliable for risk-stratification of patients who have already developed CAD. Similarly, the investigators will examine whether strong predictors of adverse outcomes in ACS patients in the short term, such as admission SBP and heart rate, are also associated with their long term prognosis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and cholesterol lowering effects of MPSK3169A when given as subcutaneous (SC) injections over a 24-week period to patients with a high risk of cardiovascular events and LDL-c levels well above goal.
