Filter by:Aims: - evaluate the hydric status through bioimpedance spectroscopy in consecutive acute myocardial infarction patients referred for primary PCI; - assessment of renal artery stenosis incidence through renal angiography in consecutive STEMI patients; - fully characterize the complex hydration, metabolic and endothelial profile of these patients in the attempt to define the role played by dehydration in the complex dynamics of acute myocardial infarction.
To evaluate the efficacy of renal artery stent combined with standardized medical therapy as treatment for renal artery stenosis.
The ANDORRA study is a, multicenter, prospective, open, randomized, controlled blinded endpoint trial (PROBE) comparing two treatment strategies (renal artery stenting + standardized and optimized medical treatment [SOMT] versus SOMT alone) of 12 months duration in patients with confirmed resistant hypertension (RH) and angiographically proven grade III unilateral or bilateral atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (ARAS) ≥ 60%.
Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is localized structural defects in the arterial wall, whose innate or acquired character is still unknown. This segmental non atheromatous injury, leads to stenosis of the arteries of small and medium caliber. Renal arteries are the most commonly affected with 60-75% of total fibrodysplasia. Three histological subtypes have been described: intimal, medial and peri-medial. They are not mutually exclusive and can be observed in the same patient. This is a rare blood disease, occurring in children and young adults. In this young population with long life expectancy, these aneurysmal lesion are associated with 10% risk of rupture. To date, no data have shown in the literature that FMD is link to genetic causes, or if there is specific histopathologic lesions for non-atherosclerotic renal artery aneurysms. To answer these questions, Cardiovascular Surgery Unit of the University Hospital of Saint-Etienne, French national reference center for renal artery surgery, in association with the Reference Center for Rare Vascular Disease in Paris, designed the first study for pathological and genetic characteristics of dysplastic renal artery aneurysms in young patients.
The purpose of this study is to show that the use of low volume iso-osmolar non-ionic radio contrast medium (30 cc) in a thoracic CT Scanning procedure in a selected group of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) will avoid contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) in comparison to a similar group of patients with CKD who receive no contrast medium..
Aims - assessment of renal artery stenosis incidence in consecutive AMI patients included in the Romanian National Programme of Primary Percutaneous Revascularisation; - generating a cardio-renal-metabolic profile in patients with renal atherosclerotic disease; - creating a local registry (based on European CARDS percutaneous interventional registries) which also includes renal, metabolic and vascular data; - reporting long-term follow-up data on major cardiac adverse events (MACE) in the study group.
Current treatments for ARAS based on restoring blood flow alone have been unsuccessful at recovering kidney function. For this reason we are studying a stem cell product called "mesenchymal stem cells" or MSC. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are grown from a person's own fat tissue (obtained as a fat biopsy) and infused back into the patient's own kidney. This study is also being done to determine if the MSC infusion prior to percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty with stenting (PTRA) further enhances changes in single kidney blood flow and restoration of kidney function, as well as to assess the relationship between MSC dose and measures of kidney function.
• Background: Since evidence show that renal-artery stenting did not confer a significant benefit with respect to the prevention of clinical events when added to comprehensive, multifactorial medical therapy in people with atherosclerotic renal-artery stenosis[1], the aim of our study was to confirm Fu-zheng-qu-zhuo (FZQZc) oral liquid, a herbal medicine, combined with optimal medical therapy of internal medicine (OMT), including anti-platelet therapy and other protocol-driven medical therapies to control blood pressure and glucose and lipid levels in accordance with guidelines,resulted in greater renal function protection in patients with atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis ( ARAS) compared with OMT alone. Methods : A randomized, placebo-controlled, single centre clinical design. Sixty patients with diagnosed atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis and had chronic kidney disease stage 3 will be recruited, and will be randomized into two groups in a 1:1 ratio ( FZQZ and placebo Group, 30 respectively). FZQZ Oral liquid or placebo 20 ml every time, three times a day for different groups, meanwhile, all participants in both treatment groups received OMT, 6 months therapeutic period. Serum creatinine, estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR), urine protein, and cardiovascular and renal events (a composite end point of death from cardiovascular or renal causes, myocardial infarction, stroke, hospitalization for congestive heart failure, progressive renal insufficiency, or the need for renal-replacement therapy) will be compared between the Groups as the outcome.
To determine the safety and toxicity of intra-arterial infused autologous adipose derived mesenchymal stromal (stem) cells in patients with vascular occlusive disease of the kidney.
This was a Phase 2a prospective, single center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study designed to assess the efficacy, pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of IV elamipretide for reduction of reperfusion injury in subjects with Atherosclerotic Renal Artery Stenosis (ARAS), who are undergoing percutaneous transluminal angioplasty of the renal artery (PTRA).
