Filter by:ICARUS is an interventional single-centre hospital-based cohort study in patients admitted to the stroke unit with an acute ischemic stroke. The aims of the study are to i) define the characteristics and determinants of microglial activation after human stroke, and ii) assess the correlation of microglial activation with circulating inflammatory markers, structural brain changes on neuroimaging, and neurological outcomes. ICARUS involves serial TSPO-PET imaging along with serial MRI, immune cell profiling in blood, and both clinical and laboratory assessments in 36 patients with acute ischemic stroke caused by a cortical (N=18) or strictly subcortical (N=18) infarct. In a substudy, the investigators will include 10 independently recruited patients with acute ischemic stroke to assess MRI arterial spin labelling (ASL) sequences as a marker for perfusion measurement of the TSPO tracer.
Coronary heart disease and stroke are belong to the atherosclerotic vascular disease (ASCVD). When both occur at the same time, the mortality rate is 19%-37%. Especially when ischemic stroke occurs in patients with acute myocardial infarction, the mortality rate is as high as 36.5%. At present, there is a lack of co-management for the cardio-cerebrovascular diseases. Some studies have explored the disease management based on Internet +, but there are still challenges in personalized management and improving adherence. Based on Internet + 's "co-prevention and co-management" model of cardio-cerebrovascular diseases, this study plans to provide personalized intervention by smartphone App to improve the patients' self-management, in order to reduce the incidence and mortality of atherosclerotic cardio-cerebrovascular events in the high-risk population of cardio-cerebrovascular diseases.
About 5% of COVID-19 patients may present symptoms related to acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Treatment-management and outcomes related to mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for COVID-19 infected patients harboring large vessel occlusion is largely unknown. This multicentric study aims to investigate morbidity, mortality and neurological outcomes after MT performed in patients with COVID-19 infection.
In the clinical setting, it is difficult to obtain effective rehabilitation during the acute phase, the reasons may include insufficient awareness of early rehabilitation due mainly to a limitation in number and variety of rehabilitation professionals in Low- and middle-income countries. It is necessary to shift tasks to other healthcare providers who are trained to provide rehabilitation like nurses. The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility and effectiveness of a modified Barthel Index based rehabilitation nursing program on acute stroke inpatients.
This is a prospective, single center study involving 150 patients with stable coronary artery disease undergoing coronary angiography for chest pain evaluation. The relationship between FFR values and inducible myocardial ischemia at the time of definite ischemia during adenosine stress testing will be investigated.
Phase II, prospective, randomized, multicenter, open-label, pilot clinical trial comparing remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) plus standard medical therapy to standard medical therapy alone, in patients with acute ischemic stroke within 9 hours of stroke onset that are not eligible to recanalization therapies.
The DOCTORS-LM study will investigate the impact of using optical coherence tomography (OCT) to guide the procedure in angioplasty of lesions of the left main stem responsible for myocardial ischemia.
The purpose of this research is to test an investigational drug called Adipose Mesenchymal Stem Cells (aMSCs) for the treatment of ischemia re-perfusion injury (IRI) in patients that have had a kidney transplant.
To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of rehabilitation training based on brain-computer interface in improving the upper motor function, self-care ability in daily life and quality of life in patients with ischemic stroke. This study adopts centralized uniform random 1:1 grouping, subjects will be randomly assigned to the experimental group and the control group. Randomization schemes are generated by statistical professionals using SAS software.
In this trial, The investigators are going to investigate the improvement of neurological functions and infarced area of the brain in ischemic stroke patients after ingestion of omega 3 products that have high concentrations of DHA and EPA in comparison to control group. The study will assess the improvement by computerized calculation of the size of the infarcted area before and after the intervention and neurological assessment tools. The researchers will follow the scientific and ethical regulations prevent any harmful effect on recruited subjects.
