Filter by:This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of low-dose rosuvastatin (10 mg) in the 4 statin benefit groups requiring high- or moderate-intensity statin therapy according to the 2013 American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association guideline in Korean population.
Investigators will establish a longitudinal cohort of ~3,000 adults >18 years in Port-au-Prince using multistage random sampling, and follow them longitudinally to evaluate the prevalence and incidence of cardiovascular disease risk factors and diseases. Cardiovascular risk factors include hypertension, diabetes, obesity, dyslipidemia, kidney disease, poor diet, cigarette smoking, physical inactivity, and inflammation. Cardiovascular disease include angina and myocardial infarction, heart failure, stroke, and CVD mortality. It is anticipated that hypertension prevalence will be ≥10% in 18-30 year olds, that hypertension incidence will be >10 events/1000 person years. Association of determinants and risk factors with CVD will also be examined. Whole blood, serum, plasma, stool, and urine samples will be biobanked for future studies.
This Quality Enhancement Research Initiative (QuERI) is a knowledge translation medical practice activity based on decision making support through feedback to physicians on their management of dyslipidemia in order to achieve guidelines recommended LDL-C levels in high risk patients. Physician interaction has three distinct components: 1. Capture of data as reported by participating physician; 2. Highlight (by providing feedback) where management may be optimized based on guidelines or recommendations; 3. Identify challenges faced by physicians resulting in the care gap..
Clinical Trial Phase III, experimental, simple blind, randomized with two treatment groups, multicentric, longitudinal, to evaluate the therapuetic efficacy to dislipydemias in mexican adult population. This trial includes homogeneus populations that could be comparable by their disease condition, biologic characteristics and sociodemographics characteristics. 2 Treatment groups: Experimental Group: Oral Administration of L-carnitine (1g) + Oral Atorvastatin (20mg), every 24 hours for 6 months. Active control group: Oral Administration of Atorvastatin 20mg every 24 hours for 6 months. Sample Size: 120 subjects, females or males between 35 to 75 years old. Laboratory tests: Hematic biometry, quimical blood components, electrocardiogram and pregnancy urinary test.
This study aims to explore the determinants of cognitive impairment among Indonesian geriatrics in an Old Age Home.
This study is designed to verify the clinical efficacy and safety of different statins in dyslipidemia patients, and explore the effects on glycometabolic in patients with impaired glucose regulation.
This is a prospective German registry for patients with dyslipidemia with very high cardiovascular risk who principally meet the Gemeinsamer Bundesausschuss (G-BA) stipulations for Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin like type 9 inhibitor (PCSK9i) use, and are treated by office-based cardiologists or in lipid ambulances.
Animal studies have found that vitamin K-dependent proteins matrix Gla protein and osteocalcin beneficially influence lipid and glucose metabolism, respectively. However, this concept has not been tested in humans at risk for dyslipidemia and diabetes risk. Vitamin K supplementation presents an opportunity to test the hypothesized link between the vitamin K-dependent proteins and markers of lipid and glucose metabolism. The investigators will conduct an 8-week vitamin K intervention (to manipulate carboxylation of matrix Gla protein and osteocalcin) and determine its effects on markers of dyslipidemia and diabetes risk. Sixty obese children will be randomly allocated to either the control group receiving placebo or the low-dose (45 mcg/d) or high-dose group (90 mcg/d) receiving vitamin K (menaquinone-7).
The overall objective of the proposed cluster randomized trial is to test whether implementation of protocol-based integrated care will improve CVD risk factors (glycated hemoglobin [HbA1C], systolic blood pressure [SBP], and LDL-cholesterol) over 18 months and reduce major CVD events (non-fatal stroke, non-fatal myocardial infarction, hospitalized heart failure, and CVD mortality) over 3 years among patients with type 2 diabetes and additional CVD risk factors or clinical CVD compared to usual team-based care in community clinics in Xiamen, China.
Fructose-containing sugars have been implicated in the epidemics of obesity, diabetes and related cardiometabolic disorders. This view is supported by lower quality evidence from ecological observations, animal models, and select human trials. Higher level evidence from controlled trials and prospective cohort studies have been inconclusive. Whether sugars contribute to cardiometabolic complications independent of their calories remains unclear. To address the uncertainties, the investigators propose to conduct a series of systematic reviews and meta-analyses of the totality of the evidence from controlled trials to distinguish the contribution of fructose-containing sugars from that of energy in the development of markers of cardiometabolic risk. The findings generated by this proposed knowledge synthesis will help improve the health of consumers through informing evidence-based guidelines and improving health outcomes by educating healthcare providers and patients, stimulating industry innovation, and guiding future research design.
