Filter by:Mental disorders have been shown to be associated with a number of general medical conditions (also referred to as somatic or physical conditions). The investigators aim to undertake a comprehensive study of comorbidity among those with treated mental disorders, by using high-quality Danish registers to provide age- and sex-specific pairwise estimates between the ten groups of mental disorders and nine groups of general medical conditions. The investigators will examine the association between all 90 possible pairs of prior mental disorders and later GMC categories using the Danish national registers. Depending on whether individuals are diagnosed with a specific mental disorder, the investigators will estimate the risk of receiving a later diagnosis within a specific GMC category, between the start of follow-up (January 1, 2000) or at the earliest age at which a person might develop the mental disorder, whichever comes later. Follow-up will be terminated at onset of the GMC, death, emigration from Denmark, or December 31, 2016, whichever came first. Additionally for dyslipidemia, follow-up will be ended if a diagnosis of ischemic heart disease was received. A "wash-out" period will be employed in the five years before follow-up started (1995-1999), to identify and exclude prevalent cases from the analysis. Individuals with the GMC of interest before the observation period will be considered prevalent cases and excluded from the analyses (i.e. prevalent cases were "washed-out"). When estimating the risk of a specific GMC, the investigators will consider all individuals to be exposed or unexposed to the each mental disorder depending on whether a diagnosis is received before the end of follow-up. Persons will be considered unexposed to a mental disorder until the date of the first diagnosis, and exposed thereafter.
The purposes of this study were to compare blood pressure responses of the same target heart rate on different exercise modes in patients with coronary artery diseases (CAD) and to compare the effects of blood pressure responses after exercise training. The investigators will recruit 30 subjects with CAD who are referred to phase II cardiopulmonary rehabilitation exercise training. The subjects performed the treadmill or stationary bicycle exercise randomly.
Chronic ischemic heart disease and diabetes mellitus type II have one of the highest morbidity and mortality rates. Especially in the presence of both diseases, these risks increase exponentially. The aim of this program is to reduce cardiovascular risk factors by promoting individual health literacy and a healthy lifestyle, thereby improving metabolism and reducing the progress of the disease as well as mortality. Patients will receive individual exercise prescriptions and nutritional recommendations. This lifestyle intervention is accompanied by step counters, heart rate sensors, blood glucose meters and smartphones to allow regional implementation in different areas in Germany. In total, 1500 patients with diabetes mellitus type II and chronic ischemic heart disease will participate in the trial. The project examines whether the intervention positively affects metabolic health and lifestyle behaviors, increases health literacy, and reduces cardiovascular events of these high risk patients. Furthermore, the effectiveness of the intervention will be compared between urban and rural areas.
The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal cooling strategies to alleviate cardiovascular strain of coronary artery disease individuals during a simulated North American and Australian heatwave.
Sleep-wake disturbances were found to be a common problem among patients with CHD either earlier during hospitalization or/ and after discharge Although there is an evidence that sleep-wake disturbanes occur in high rate among patients with CHD little was found about assessment and management of this problem. This randomized controlled study will assess sleep quality of stable CHD patients who were admitted for undergoing coronary angiography electively. Then it will test the hypothesis that atlas cedar wood essential oil aromatherapy have a positive effect on sleep quality of CHD patients.

Registry of patients undergoing invasive fractional flow reserve measurement using a motorized device.
In this controlled trial, patients referred to post-myocardial infarction cardiac rehabilitation will be randomized to either interval or continuous training.
This study is designed to investigate whether scoring balloon (non-slip element, NSE) predilation compared to non-compliant (NC) balloon predilation for de novo lesion in patients with high bleeding risk and planning to receive drug-coated balloon (DCB) treatment will lead to lower change in minimal lumen area (MLA) at 6 months by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS).
The XIENCE 28 USA Study is prospective, single arm, multi-center, open label, non-randomized trial to evaluate safety of 1-month (as short as 28 days) dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in subjects at high risk of bleeding (HBR) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with the approved XIENCE family (XIENCE Xpedition Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System [EECSS], XIENCE Alpine EECSS and XIENCE Sierra EECSS) of coronary drug-eluting stents.
