Filter by:This study was a prospective, randomized trial designed to investigate the efficacy of moderate lifestyle modification for improving the clinical status of patients with coronary artery disease or patients with risk factors that promote coronary artery disease.
Encouraged by the recent data published ,the investigators think that a waiting time of 10 minutes is feasible while preserving diagnostic accuracy and would like to assess the feasibility and diagnostic efficacy of W10 compared with W30 imaging in a pilot study. By combining W10 imaging with half-time acquisition, the time of the technetium-99m myocardial perfusion imaging procedure could be shortened by at least 50%, lasting only 40 minutes for W10 (10-minute waiting) imaging compared with 90 minutes for W30 imaging (30-minute waiting). The investigators hypothesize that (1) W10 MPI is clinically feasible and tolerable by the patients, that (2) W10 MPI provides high image quality and that (3) W10 MPI provides diagnostic accuracy comparable to W30 MPI.
In this randomized study the investigators aim to determine the effects of a whole-food plant-based vegan diet on markers of inflammation and glucometabolic profile in patients with cardiovascular disease. The investigators hypothesize that a whole-food plant-based vegan diet will reduce markers of inflammation and improve glucometabolic profile compared with the American Heart Association (AHA)- recommended diet at 2 months follow-up in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). The investigators are also evaluating endothelial function using the EndoPAT device and stool microbiome.
This study aims to discuss whether the combined treatment of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and western medicine for Mental Stress Induced Myocardial Ischemia (MSIMI) does effect, namely the conventional therapy for Coronary Heart Disease( CHD) combining with TCM - Xinkeshu tablets.
To evaluate The Safety and Efficacy of 'AVI' Stent Comparing with Firebird2® For Treating Coronary Revascularization.
The investigators assessed the hypothesis that whether RH-PAT index (RHI) as a marker of endothelial dysfunction could predict occurrence of ISR after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
The purpose of this study is to collect additional safety and effectiveness data for on the Biosensors BioFreedom™ BA9 Drug Coated Coronary Stent in patients with native, de novo coronary artery disease.
Angina is caused by narrowings or blockages within coronary arteries. Coronary angioplasty and stenting is performed for people with angina to improve the blood supply to the heart by placing metal tubes within the artery using balloon inflation. The procedure risks small but significant damage to the heart muscle downstream of the balloon. Glucagon like peptide 1 (GLP 1) is a naturally occurring hormone secreted by cells in the gut in response to food. It acts by stimulating the release of insulin. In the heart it acts to increase glucose uptake into cardiac muscle. GLP−1 can protect the heart and improve heart muscle performance in people with coronary artery disease in physiological studies. This study which assesses whether GLP−1 protects the heart during coronary angioplasty and stenting. The hypothesis is that GLP-1 given during elective coronary angioplasty and stenting will reduce cardiac troponin rise (a measure of heart muscle damage) compared to placebo.
The increased risk of atherosclerotic morbidity and mortality in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been linked to hypertension, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and systemic inflammation. The relationship regarding obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and lipidemia and systemic inflammation is far from conclusion for obesity as a strong confounding factor.
