Filter by:Biomime stent is a novel sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) (Meril Life Sciences Pvt. Ltd., Gujarat, India) with an ultra-thin stent platform (65 μm) and a biodegradable polymer licensed for the treatment of de novo coronary lesions. However no data regarding the efficacy and safety of this stent in an "all-comers" patient population treated with percutaneus coronary interventions (PCI) have been published so far. In this registry the investigators aimed to collect clinical and angiographic information about an extensive "all-comers" employ of this novel stent.
Currently, cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is a well-implemented non-invasive diagnostic imaging modality in patients with stable chest pain. Besides conventional CT-reading, CCTA is also capable to identify several morphologic and geometric characteristics of atherosclerotic plaques. Recently, the investigators showed that the use of semi-automated plaque quantification algorithm identified parameters predictive for acute coronary syndrome on top of clinical risk profiling and conventional CT-reading. In addition, several atherotrombosis biomarkers, like high-sensitivity cardiac troponins, are described as related to coronary artery disease and cardiovascular events. Prospective data with sequential analysis of atherosclerotic plaques combined with different atherothrombosis biomarkers are currently lacking, but will provide important clues about the pathophysiology of plaque progression and atherothrombosis.
In this study, the investigators will determine whether patients with documented atherosclerosis are characterized by specific epigenetic changes in circulating cells of the innate immune system, compared to patients without atherosclerosis.
This proposal seeks to assess the impact of 24 weeks of metformin on non-calcified plaques and calcified plaques assessed by coronary CT angiography, and on whether these changes can be explained by metformin-induced phenotypic and secretory changes of monocytes.
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in developed countries. In addition, many patients suffer from valvular and aortic disease. Although various tools are available to identify patients with cardiovascular (CV) disease at risk for major adverse cardiac events (MACE), the identification of these patients remains a clinical challenge. One promising avenue is the use of different serum biomarkers involved in atherothrombosis which could provide an easy and cost-effective step in risk stratification.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether olmesartan medoxomil is effective in the treatment of coronary atherosclerosis progression and epicardial adipose tissue(EAT) volume reduction in patients with coronary atherosclerosis detected by coronary CT angiography(CCTA).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy and deliverability of the CRE8 sirolimus-eluting stent system in the treatment of patients with de novo coronary artery lesions.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy and deliverability of the CRE8 sirolimus-eluting stent and the RESOLUTE zotarolimus-eluting stent in the treatment of patients with de novo coronary artery lesions.
To evaluate the contribution of the assessment of endothelial dysfunction (ED) in improving coronary hearth disease (CHD) risk stratification obtained by the Framingham risk score (FRS) in rheumatoid arthritis population (RA).
To evaluate the safety for the combination of Rivaroxaban and Ticagrel versus triple antithrombotic regimen (Vitamin K Antagonist (VKA), Clopigogrel and Aspirin) in patients with atrial fibrillation and coronary artery disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
