Filter by:This study is designed to verify the safety and efficacy of Lepu® NeoVas™ Bioabsorbable Coronary Artery Rapamycin-eluting Stent System combined with different antiplatelet therapies in the treatment of coronary heart disease.
XueBiJing, a Chinese herbal derived therapeutic, has been approved to treat severe infections (sepsis) in critically ill patients (China Food and Drug Administration; Beijing, China, Number Z20040033). Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) will produce large amounts of inflammatory mediators and oxygen free radicals, which causes the lipid peroxidation damage and mononuclear cell migration, thus aggravating organ inflammation and damage. Therefore, exploring new methods to prevent and alleviate organ injury caused by CPB is an important topi in clinical practice. However, little knowledge is regarding the effect of Xuebijing injection on CPB-related organ injury. To answer these questions, the authors conducted this randomized trial to compare XueBiJing with placebo in critically ill patients with cardiovascular surgery.
The purpose of this research is to determine how frequently sleep disorders such as sleep disordered breathing and insomnia occur in patients with coronary artery disease enrolled in cardiac rehabilitation. By reviewing results of a variety of tests, we also hope to learn more about the cardiovascular effects on people who may have these conditions.
The purpose of the SIROOP Registry is to retrospectively and prospectively collect baseline, clinical and procedural characteristics of patients who have undergone PCI and are treated with either currently available sirolimus or paclitaxel coated DCBs (see Table 1), irrespective of clinical presentation as well as to prospectively collect data about their clinical outcomes. Outcomes will be compared in different clinical subgroups. The impact of current DCBs in different clinical settings and coronary artery lesions on cardiovascular outcomes will be assessed.
The purpose of this prospective observational study is to evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic performance of a "one-stop" comprehensive coronary artery anatomy and function assessment for CAD.
Preoperative anemia is present in more than 50% of patients undergoing cardiac surgery, which is associated with increased risk of transfusion, increased length of stay in the intensive care unit, and increased incidence of renal failure and mortality. To date, clinical research on perioperative anemia has been focused on finding and treating other underlying causes of anemia, lowering the threshold for transfusion, and performing careful transfusion. However, recently, it was known that hepcidin and erythroferrone are related to iron metabolism and absorption, vitamin D has an inverse correlation with the development of anemia, and is related to hepcidin concentration control. Therefore, in this study, the relationship between vitamin D, hepcidin concentration and perioperative hemoglobin level in patients with off-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery was investigated together.
Objective to evaluate the effect of Shexiang Baoxin Pill on myocardial ischemia in patients with coronary microvascular dysfunction (non obstructive coronary heart disease) through a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical multicenter study.At the same time, the effects of exercise tolerance and quality of life were also observed.
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is an important cause of cardiac events, primarily affecting young healthy women with no cardiovascular risk factors. The 10-year recurrence rate is 30%, but SCAD recurrence cannot be predicted. Approximately half of SCAD survivors struggle with significant anxiety and fear of recurrence (FOR), which contributes to poor sleep and physical inactivity and, thereby, increased risk of recurrence. Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) is an 8-week group intervention with evidence to improve FOR and health behaviors (sleep, physical activity), through psychological mechanisms that directly target key FOR processes (interoceptive bias, intolerance of uncertainty). I adapted MBCT to target FOR, sleep, and physical activity in cardiac event survivors via group videoconferencing delivery (UpBeat-MBCT), however this intervention has not yet been targeted to SCAD survivors. I propose an open pilot trial to test the feasibility, acceptability, and changes in psychological and behavioral health variables in SCAD survivors participating in UpBeat-MBCT (N=16). Participants will be recruited from the MGH SCAD Program and asked to complete self-report surveys and actigraphy before and after the intervention. The primary outcomes are feasibility and acceptability of the intervention and research procedures. Exploratory outcomes are changes in psychological and behavioral variables and their inter-correlations. This project would be the first and only behavioral intervention for SCAD survivors and would provide preliminary data for an NIH Stage II efficacy trial to develop an accessible and efficacious intervention for a vulnerable group of SCAD survivors, with generalizability to survivors of other cardiac events.
Chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) is a newly described classification devised by the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) 2019 to replace the term "Stable Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). The main reason for effecting the change is the term is thought to better describe the disease process and encompass a wider spectrum of clinical, pharmacological, and pathophysiological entities. Using this new term, the disease atherosclerosis manifests as CAD is categorized into Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) and CCS. The main focus of introducing the concept of CCS is on the fact that CAD is a continuous phenomenon involving intravascular plaque aggregation and progression which has different evolutionary phases. Dyslipidemia is recognized as a prominent risk factor for cardiovascular (CV) disease. It is characterized by an elevation of serum total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), or triglycerides (TG) and reduced serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) concentration . Genetically determined and metabolically induced disturbances in lipid metabolism, as manifested in several types of dyslipidemia, have been shown to be causally related to the development of coronary artery disease (CAD). A diversity of clinical and angiographic studies has been made to evaluate the linkage between plasma lipid-control therapy in the development of recurrent cardiovascular events. Independent predictors of recurrent CVD events or death include age, smoking, hypertension (HTN), dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, and the underutilization of medications recommended by current treatment guidelines.
A prospective, multicenter, 1:1 randomized, investigator initiated study. Goal of this study is to examine the safety of uninterrupted periprocedural NOAC use.
